If it takes both the Jays melting down for the Knicks to win by 3 in overtime, I sure as **** wouldn't be acting like I just won the championship.

That's just me though.

Anyway. Celtics in 5. Celtics in 6. Celtics in 7. It doesn't matter. Talent wins out.


Tf? Then that means the Knicks had more talent tonight….


Knicks won baby.

Call me when they win 3 more.

Might take 3 seasons at this rate.

4-0 reg season :lol: :lol: :lol: you fear OG, it's ok it's normal

Hehehe.

Cute.

Which part is cute? OG having Tatum in the same Cade was in? Why you think they had him come off 40 screens trying to get him off OG, we can play as like Orlando but can score the ball, but you're rite, Celtics in 5 or 6 or 7 or 8 :lol:



It's so adorable. It must feel like Christmas.

The overcompensating from the lot of you tells me you actually are shell shocked you won.

Not a single one of you will be here when the Celtics win though. I guarantee it.

The regular season doesn’t matter, the Celtics split with the warriors during the regular season in 2022, they only won twice in the finals against them

The regular season doesn’t matter, the Celtics beat the warriors in all but one game during the regular season in 2022, the dubs still won the chip


Now you're comparing the Knicks to one of the best dynastys in the NBA.

Wild.

You won by 3. Act like it.

I picked Celtics in 5 as I have zero faith in the Knicks but this win was very impressive. If this Knicks team shows up in the next 2 games, regardless win or lose my opinion will change on them.

Sorry to break it to you. They don't hand out titles for that.

I know that's difficult to understand as someone who's never experienced it but I promise you it's true.

Like who ? Mikal ?


Was wondering if we’d see you again after how well Mikal played. Cause yeah, Mikal could really torch Jrue/Pritchard.


Just wanted to say thank you for Mikal again :D

Da **** you talking about? It was their 4th title in 7 years.

Don't be one of those bad faith posters. That warriors team (22) is leagues better than this Knicks team.

The Celtics faced a healthy Knick team ONCE all season, that was JB’s second game back from injury
When you did, you won by 2… relax buddy

Well. If you wanna talk about health then we can talk about KP, Hauser and Jrue but I'm guessing you didn't mean the Celtics health.

Conveniently you're also leaving out the fact that the Celtics never played the Knicks healthy either. But why does that matter right? lol

Come on buddy. Klay was already a shadow of his former self in 22 and we’ve seen Wiggins & Poole come back to reality since then. If OG & Bridges play over their heads the way those two did for GSW, we’ll win a title this year without seeing a game 7…

Bro sounding like you going on full defense mode after this L
Just relax, it’s a long series, but give the Knicks respect, as we give the Celtics, we all know this series is against the defending champs, but we were up to the task. Hold the L, and regroup for game 2, they the defending champs for a reason, right?

Y'all of on one. The Knicks aren't a championship level team.

Wed have a lot better discussion if you guys stopped **** on the accomplishments of teams that won it in favor of a team that has no chance of winning it
