Celtics are better. Tatum over Siakam any day easy.
Shame that we might get swept.
Siakam don’t get my started. I don’t get the narrative that he is better than Paul George. Come on now Paul George is better than Siakam. Kawhi you made the correct decision. Good luck on winning your 3rd championship

That's a mistake that just can't happen in that situation. Pascal needs to make sure he learns from this

lol... learn when? When winnable game is over? This series is done.
I agree

Not sure how much it’d matter but I hate not having home court advantage

If he doesnt, this could be masai's downfall...

Giving him the max last year, when it made no sense to until this season was weird. He was still gonna make the max though so idk.

Our max contract 1st option so called all star went 1/6 in the 2nd half of a key playoff game after starting the game 5/10. How tf do you make just 1 damn field goal in a whole 2nd half? And if I recall that 1 shot he made was a goal tend. That’s just sad

i hate it when GMs give early extensions.

never wanted to see the celtics in the playoffs. we just never look good against them. o well hopefully we get some help this offseason and end the falacy that gasol controls the game on both ends. we could use JV going 30/15 right now

In all honesty would these two play well together?

Remember. We had Kawhi on that series :lol:

Ya and they had Giannis...Celtics dont have a superstar


Who do you trust on this team to generate points consistently. Half court offense is just sad to watch.

Yup that was our chance to blow the game open but instead we couldn’t close out the quarter

Definitely. Raptors were playing to survive, not playing to win. They kept eeking out the clock and making the dumbest plays to end the quarter like they seem to always do.
