PLAYOFFS: Rnd 2, Gm 6 – Celtics @ Knicks – 8:00PM, Fri, May 16, 2025

Let's not forget these series and remember what happened vs this Knick team. Unsure what kind of team we'll have next year, but whichever remaining Celtics stay, never forget these series and seek deep, pain inflicted revenge.

As far as this team, hopefully we are in that top 5 spot in the East next year. This team will look a lot different next year.

Idk. The east is not great but still . You don’t even know when tatum will be back.

I really thought that Tillman was gonna be a key part of the team this year with a full training camp...Dude can't even get off the bench in a 40 point blowout in the playoffs. What a disappointment.

Yeah, I gotta wear that. I can't even blame Joe for not having a plan B offensive role for him he looked noticeably slower out there to me and definitely shattered confidence.

[brackdan70]

Don’t let us close it to 30!!!

[ConstableGeneva]

We'll always have 18. Knicks won't win ****.

[redslastlaugh]

Thibs gonna Thibs.

try the Knicks board ... lol

[Shak_Celts]

Now i can pick a champion without much fuss. Indiana. Lol

[MaxwellSmart]

The Knicks Broadcasting team were rooting for them.

[Bostondave]

WITHOUT A DOUBT THE WORST EXHIBITION FROM A CELTICS TEAM GOING BACK 40 YEARS. I BLEED GREEN BUT THIS IS SIMPLY OUTRAGREOUS TO GO OUT LIKE THIS. I'M NOT SURE WHAT TO SAY. I WAS ALL FOR SAYING GIVE THE TEAM TO BROWN BUT IT'S HARD WHEN NOONE WANTS TO STEP UP A PLAY SOME FUCIING BASKETBALL. I'M ASHAMED AND EMBARRASSED. REALLY AND TRULY.

[playa-hater]

I’m sorry but there is no scenario where I’m bringing back Holiday and Porzingis next year if I’m Brad Stevens. Trade them for peanuts

They’re absolutely gone lol. No chance. Feel kind of bad for the new owner, Tatum goes down, guys look washed. Lose to the Knicks in round 2 in a blowout for the elimination game

I like the new owner but I would never feel bad for someone who has six billion dollars or so to spend.

[MaxwellSmart]

Whatever happened to Tillman. Why did he become unplayable this season?

He missed a couple of shots in Game 1 or 2 and then Mazzulla benched him the rest of the season haha.

[Shak_Celts]

Gotta get in on Giannis if we can. Brad can figure out who it will take. Things is, we have no picks. I guess we can get some but it’s going to take a feat to beat other pick rich teams. If we can’t snag him, I hope my Wembys can.

[MaxwellSmart]

These NY Losers acting like they won the whole thing.

[PierceFan4ever]

At the end of the day, only 1 team wins. Even if we beat the Knicks, I don’t think this team was winning it all with holiday and KP looking like this. That’s with Tatum too.

[PierceFan4ever]

Hauser needs to go too

[darrendaye]

If only we still had Springer...

You know, this is an excellent point.

Let's see what Brad can do WITHOUT the stockpile that Ainge refused to use that he was left with.

Everyone all of a sudden forgets how **** this team was in Ainge’s last year. Brad made the Kemba for Horford deal that jump started all of this. He built around players here that’s true but he succeeded where Danny failed. People need to get a grip on this. Most of this team will be back. Yeah probably not KP unless he signs cheap and probably not Jrue or Hauser. Maybe not even Luke or Al. But JB will be back. White will be. PP will be. Another year for Baylor another year for Walsh and JD. Tatum will be back at some point and they’ll have another crack at it.

Brad will get another solid piece for this team that no one is expecting.

He used Ainge stockpile my guy. Are you ok?

It depends what you consider “stockpile” and when you stop calling vets a “stockpile”. The Ainge draft “stockpile” was already used on Kyrie Tatum and Brown unless you’re going to sit here and say that Kemba was an asset. Romeo was a jag at the time and looked to be close to being out of the league, Nesmith was another guy who had zero value and was essentially a throw in to Indy for Brogdon. Marcus and Timelord were extremely overrated. So if you are referring to stockpile as veteran players already in Boston then yeah he traded guys that Ainge drafted that weren’t good enough. That’s what a GM is supposed to do.

The vets he traded on the roster weren’t good enough and he brought in guys who were last year.

Whatever happened to Tillman. Why did he become unplayable this season?

He missed a couple of shots in Game 1 or 2 and then Mazzulla benched him the rest of the season haha.

Joe started him against Memphis where he went 0-5, and that was all she wrote, as the saying goes!

[Celts17Pride]

Tillman is alive!!!!!

[GrandTheftRondo]

At the end of the day, only 1 team wins. Even if we beat the Knicks, I don’t think this team was winning it all with holiday and KP looking like this. That’s with Tatum too.

It was going to take something special out of Tatum
In the finals to beat OKC.

The amount of turnovers a banged up Brown would have had against them would have been hard to watch.

[Shak_Celts]

After the deadline i sucked it up, but before it I was worried about having only Pritch and Hauser as a possible off the bench.
