Tough game and without Irving and Baynes I see a loss here. I at least hope our effort level increases this game.

Kyrie isn't limping btw. He should be out as a precaution though. But I would bet he is at the ASG game, he is coaching one of the rising stars teams lol.

I wouldn’t say I missed these days, but these teams showed way more heart despite a quarter of the talent

Read on Twitter

Agreed. Infinite more heart.

Hard not to be a badass when your team leader is the smallest guy on the court killing the league offensively while attacking the basket ENDLESSLY getting over 8 FTs a game.

It also doesn't hurt having actual professionals on the roster in support with Bradley, Horford, and Crowder who tried hard on defense every minute of every game while never complaining about their role and only doing what was best for team.

That team was all heart, defense, 3s and layups.

Brad's system is the modern NBA and it works if you give him players with the skills and will to do it. Instead of streetballing, ISOing, and complaining.

Btw, not court-side for this so unlikely that you'll see me on TV. You'll be able to see me in the March game though (that is also the game where reload and I will meet and he can subsequently confirm I'm the coolest mother **** on this forum).

Buckners/Gocelts/Philly peoples, hmu on PM if you are attending.

Uhhhh you guys realize that team had zero shot at winning the conference right? Despite our issues, this team has a 10x better chance than those teams.

Plus, we had Jae's Hayward comments, IT's injury and max contract demands, etc. IT's sister played a part, but that team also should've lost to the f***** Bulls in Round 1. The Bulls!!!!!!

The grass wasn't as green then as you think it was.

Well that's the whole point, isn't it?
The previous team, was much shorter (pun intended) on talent. But Overachieved.

The current team is frothing over with talent, but is grossly Underachieving.
That's what makes their actions glaringly disliked.

I dunno about that, Jae's defense was pretty overrated. He was great for year or so when we got him, seemed like he got cocky after that. I wouldn't trade the current team to get those guys back, but damn I wish this squad had the fight that team did.

Yeah, pretty hard to win in the postseason though.

There is also a remarkable difference between the east of the past and the east this season. Most underestimated how much teeth the east would have this year. Lebron was a dark cloud that haunted the east for a long long time, his teams always made it in. Now everyone knows they have a chance to win the east......

Even the Pacers will not go down easy. They lost Dipo.......but they have a strong chemistry on that team and are a great defensive team. Sort of like last years Celtics a tiny bit.

He better play his ass off in Philly or else this comment looks stupid:

https://nesn.com/2019/02/celtics-marcus-morris-isnt-overly-impressed-by-new-look-76ers/

After Bleacher Report posted an Instagram photo of Philadelphia’s new starting five — Ben Simmons, JJ Redick, Butler, Harris and Joel Embiid — Morris shared his thoughts on the Sixers’ latest transaction.

“Great pick up, not enough though,” Morris wrote in the comment section.

This team beating the 76ers or the Raptors in the playoffs would be a much bigger overachievement than when we beat the 76ers in the last playoffs coming off of a 20 game win streak.

Wish this team had more humble and give effort than play like **** and say you're the **** while dumping on your teammates in them.

The bulls also had a better coach in Rajon Rondo. Lol

All of this is odd coming from Mook who threw a giant hissy fit at the start of last year about coming off he bench. Apparently everyone else needs to sacrifice but him

Huh? He literally said he's willing to come off the bench. And I have no recollection of a "giant hissy fit" last year

[Jaqua92]

All I know is, Kyrie better play Wednesday. I've gone to 4 games the last two years..he's been injured for all of them. Not this one.

Meh, that's overated. The Big 3 team had a hard time eliminating the Hawks in 08 and remember that season when they went to 7 hard fought games vs the Bulls back in 09. Granted we had no KG, that Bulls team was weak. **** happens.
