Just heard Windhorst on Get Up and he said even in international competition Luka has problems with refs.

If Luka is having issues with the officiating wherever he plays, Luka must be the problem.

The Celtics fans who are in attendance for G4 should chant "WE WANT BOSTON" in the closing minutes if we clinch in Dallas. If not, do it in TD Garden in G5 lol.

No way Kyrie is going back to Boston.
It’s a wrap.

We absolutely dog-walked the competition through the entire playoffs, with Jaylen as arguably our best player, and he's still acting like he's been right all along. He's even willing to promote the idea that this is "not a real championship". Yeah, we got lucky with some matchups, but every championship team has something "lucky" you can point to.

Since Jaylen, according to him, "already cost us a few titles" he'll never be wrong, at least in his mind. I'm not sure I'd go so far as to diagnose narcissism, but certainly egomania.

I haven't read any of that but people down playing the title, to claiming some asterisk to even going that far is the most predictable thing ever.

I think Michael Wilbon should just decide the champion every year. Would prevent the Mickey Mouse-ing of these titles.

I need a good video that explains why Dallas' defense is good at all. I mean, individually I don't think too much of any of them but somehow on the whole it has been working.

Haters are gonna hate. Jaylen still can't go left? Is it a joke? It has to be.
And even last year the narrative was toxic about this aspect of his game.
He had one bad series in life and people jumped on him.
In 2022 he played great in the playoffs.
In every series!
This year he has been outstanding on D but during our playoff run in past years he always played good to great D.

2022 Finals MVP for us.
Honestly, there’s no way predicting his peak anymore. He keeps improving every new season.

Jrue is the biggest difference in the team or vice versa???

I'm not arguing Chuck's point as JRue has been huge for this team, but iirc Jrue was known for being not a good playoff guy until he got here.

So close. So so close. Can’t help but think about My Granddad who got me to love the Boston Celtics and told me endless stories about Larry Bird and Red and Bill and everything this Team means. He would be so proud of these guys so far.

One more win for history.

The Kryptonite of the Celtics is overwhelming size or speedsters.

Guys like Embiid and Jokic will give the Celtic big men problems.

Those small but fast guards like Maxey and Garland can get past Celtic defenders for layups.

Anything in between is not a problem for the Celtics.

Dallas is not really big and not really fast.

That's why the Cs are leading the series 3-0.

Who smokes the BIG FINALS CIGAR?
