They’re good enough to win the series… they would just have to fire on all cylinders. In other words, play like this three more games assuming they win this one.

GG Cleveland

This nonsense is a wrap
[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 without KP are definitely capable of losing this series. Especially if Tatum doesn’t have it in him to be the best player on the court in any game. He definitely hasn’t shown any desire to do in the first 2.

Mitchell has been the best player of the series so far

Jayson has been **** mid all playoffs. Jaylen and Derrick have been our 2 best players so far.

Jayson has to wake the **** up
