They can win this game, even without Tatum. JB, AH, DW, JH, KP, and PP are all champions, they aren't going to roll over

My prediction is PP goes off and we force game 6

This will be the last home game of an era for the Celts. Make it a memorable one. Win it for JT.

JB needs to show you something. Idk. Could be his last name as celtics who knows. The nba needs to do us a solid.

Meh. I don't even care about a game 5... waiting on JT's MRI. JB will probably try and ball out and dribble the ball out of his hands 500 times.

Joe needs to find a spark from the bench, give someone a chance.... Could possibly be KP's last game in Green, give it all you have! Knicks earned game 4 but we handed them games 1 and 2. Don't quit, keep fighting for JT!

Would be nice to win and show Celtic pride but expectations are really low now so there’s stress about this game.

Joe has to try Baylor and Craig..or maybe put Queta on Robinson a bit instead of ‘cement shoes can’t jump 1cm’ Kornet.

The series is over, but win one for Tatum. They owe him that much since dude carried them and nobody showed up to help yesterday.


What a disaster it is to be in this situation. What a **** disaster.

Alright JB and KP, time to make me and many others eat crow. The stage has been set and I’d be thrilled to be wrong.

I always like this team when they’re the underdog. A place where we’ll be for a long time.
[quote=“dkb964”]156-1 Celtics are frauds when pressure is put on them. They would have been toast if Luka was not stupid enough to foul himself out. Enjoy this ONE finals win. There will never be another with the Js and the Celtics cant afford stacked team.[/quote]

Celtics in 5?

*Basketball gods*, "Best I can do is Knicks in 5 and a ruptured achilles for Tatum" FML man.

With Tatum healthy, on/off numbers consistently show we are often better with Hauser playing alongside him, compared to Jaylen.

But with Tatum out, couldn't ask for a better backup.

We can still win, we'll see how the team deals. We need to defend and we need to replace Tatum's rebounding, maybe Queta should get some run. Hopefully Hauser can play.

I have 0 belief the Tatum-less Celtics can win this series but I want them to win this game. I want one final good memory from this version of the Celtics in the Garden before their chapter ends. I hope they just don’t roll over and die and get one for Tatum

Feels weird the series isn't over. I mean it is but you get what I mean.
