NBA Playoffs, Rnd 1: Nets (2) @ Celtics (1) – 7:00PM, Sun. 05-30-21

Guys, be real. We never had a chance to beat this Nets team no matter what. Hayward stays, sign-and-trade with Indy, Jaylen and Kemba and Timelord healthy, new coach, new GM... none of it mattered in the least.

Act accordingly.

This is why you trade Brown for Harden… same reason the Clippers traded everything for PG. If youre able to stop an unbeatable super team from forming, take the **** shot.

This Nets trio is the second most talented team in the past 20 or so years. Arguably #1.

Could be, but Kemba would still probably have broken down. Not good enough either way IMO, and I'm not even a big Jaylen guy.

Definitely not good enough. But still at least have outs towards winning a title.

I’m not sure we do as of right now.

Only good post besides pasta on this forum recently the past three years is this one.

Fixed.

And the Italian girl I slept with last night said we **** up the whole pasta thread too.

I texted her, she called us "Medigans". LOL

[Edug27]

Curious to see what we do this offseason..

Let’s start with dumping Kemba, Smart, GWilliams and Semi.

[Captain_Caveman]

Lol at these announcers thinking Boston has employed a ball movement heavy system. Havent done that in years. No idea why people keep going back to that.

We need shooters to open up the lane for Tatum and Jaylen to slash.

Otherwise, one of Tatum or Jaylen needs to go, and we all know which one that would be.

I’m a butcher, and when I’m cutting, I’ll see a nice ribeye/strip steak and I’ll be like “I’m going to cook and then eat you”, while salivating.

That’s Durant when he sees TT/Jabari/Fournier/Grant on him.

[bisme37]

JT is so cool

[BRUNiNHO91]

I want to hug JT right now lol

[Celts17Pride]

Great D Jabari

Scal can’t do math LOL

We legit could have kept Smart, with what the Nets gave up.

Kemba/Smart/Harden/Tatum/Tristan would be the best team in the East.

I don't think Houston had any intention of being good. I think the ability to tank was a huge priority for them, and don't trust the rumors at all.

Tillman is broke AF and trying to cut costs for the foreseeable future cuz he has some high interest rate loans to his name

[Celts17Pride]

Scalabrine says we got a 11 point game LOL!!!!

Try 21 points Scal

[Celtics_Champs]

Scal lmao

[BRUNiNHO91]

Man this crowd needs like a 4-0 run to unleash lol

[Feed Your Head]

Imagine if Nesmith started the game/half instead of Romeo, and we had an actual threat from three next to Tatum.

We’d only be down 12!

[grindtime22]

We need to go back to Nesmith as the screener

[King Of The 4th]

If you were to tell me the Celtics scored 91 points in three quarters, I'd imagine they'd be in a far better position to win a game than what they're in now.

[Bleeding Green]

Well, just hold them to 10 points and maybe you have a chance in the fourth.

[1st banana]

Imagine if the roles were reversed for KD if Tatum, Luka, and Embiid teamed up and KD was playing without his 2nd, 3rd, and 4th on an average team. How much barking would KD do then

He would sit out the game and join Tatum Luka and embiid the next season obviously.

[CelticsPride18]

Nets vs Bucks will be interesting. Giannis will feast on that team but will they be able to defend enough is the key to the series.

[PierceFan4ever]

Tatum can hold his own against KD while having all 5 guys eyeing him says a lot what kind of talent we have here.
