Our boy growing into a man and getting some swagger. Rrr.


I'm so glad this man is a Celtic, he feels like our (smaller and not that all time great version(yet?)) Tim Duncan, i hope he stays for life.

Nah man it was your Sixers and the hated Lakers that did by taking Ben Simmons and Fultz and Ingram and Ball in back to back drafts before the duo leading us there now.

Also accepting answers of the Nets gave us the championship, the Wizards, the Thunder, and also the Bucks as you so kindly mentioned Troel.

Also also nobody gave it to us... we took it!!

Edit: my snarky reply was to the Tweet from Embiid and not to you Deivork. Since I'm sure Embiid reads this forum and all

Last season the Celtics were first team to rally from 3-0 down in a conference finals to push the series to a game seven at home only to have their best player sprain his ankle in first minute. The mental toughness and fortitude required to get that far against a well coached team that had been to a finals and an ECF the 2 previous seasons was never fully appreciated mainly because the Boston Celtics have insanely high expectations.

I never understood the narrative that Jaylen and Jayson were somehow deficient given they have a track record at such a young age unmatched by any star since Duncan and Kobe. If they can pull off a win tonight it will be one day shy of the 2008 title clinching win on 6/15/08. I really admire what the Celtics have accomplished building and developing this team over the past 9 years.

The most underrated aspect of this title run is the amazing resurgence of Al Horford at age 38. When (and if) he gets his ring it will feel even better for me than seeing KG get his.
"I think the criticism's stupid," Stevens said. "So I don't care. I'm with Jaylen (Brown) on that. Those two had achieved more than most 25 and 26 year olds ever had. I'd rather be in the mix and have my guts ripped out than suck."

White is supposedly under heavy consideration to replace an injured Kawhi on Team USA. Wouldn't Jaylen make more positional sense? Or did they really get a bad impression of him in 2019? Or does he not even want to be on the team?

TD Garden hasn’t reached its peak levels this year yet. If Monday doesn’t then it just never will again with these prices.

LOL at the dad energy.

By the way -- I looked it up, and all the songs cited are by Lin Manuel Miranda.
