I can't watch it on ESPN. I don't have a TV provider. I just have internet access. Are there any other sources?

It should work with certain ISPs, without a TV provider.

I'm sure there's another way to stream the game, just not sure where.

Yes and No. I have already put some thought to this, and I keep thinking Boston, who has issues with their Proverbial "turn on Switch", will have many lackluster games (especially on defense).

But that will be our challenge next season.


I have been wanting multiple titles from this squad for years now, but we’ll need to stay healthy first and foremost. If they do, I like their chances!

It felt like the sky was falling every time we’d have a loss the last couple of years. Will be nice for a change to not get too worked up even if we lose a couple in a row lol


I think that's over. I think the monkey is off everyone's back - players and fans alike.

I know I personally feel like I'm going to worry less about Joe or Jaylen or any of the other things that have sabotaged this team in the past. It's gonna be nice.


Has anyone see Jaqua or Sprash lately??
I know and can respect that Sprash shows up to vent. Jaqua has yet to earn the right to celebrate this title.
All the rest y’all good ass homies who are hopefully getting down with it!

who would’ve thought we’d be repping the two most recent champs? Let’s get that BOS — DEN finals in 2025, it’s time for it!

DEN was the one team I feared the Cs might not beat even healthy.
Lacking Porzingis, I would have added a healthy LAC to that list, but a healthy LAC wasn’t likely to exist, and didn’t.

BOS failed to make it last year and DEN this year — hope they stay on a collision course for next year!

When does KD join us? He'd be the perfect Zinger back up. :nod:

He had a few chances to come to us and help us get banner 18. He chose the nets warriors and suns instead. Screw him. Won without him. I'm on record saying brown is better than he ever was anyways. :nod: 8-)

That would be perfect! :D

Man we shared so much pain and suffering together that showing of to celebrate, expecially these kids that we have seen grow before our eyes, is the bare minimum!

Got recommended this video by Youtube, for those like me who want to reminisce about the journey here:

Just read a comment that said Kyrie came through with his promise to deliver a championship to Boston.

That was lol

WHERE IS THE GAME THREAD THAT BEGINS OUR UNDENIABLE & RELENTLESS QUEST FOR A REPEAT & #19?
SamIam 2010: Truth's ability to play so incredibly efficiently is so UNDERAPPRECIATED. Bballcool 2012: Amazing how great Pierce has been for so long. Continues to defy age! KG 2013: P is original Celtic. Wherever he goes, we go. This is The Truth's house.

I think one of the most important things was something that Joe spoke about as the playoffs progressed.

Finish the quarters strong.

It was very noticeable that this is something that we focused on especially in game 5. End of Q1 and Q2 essentially won us the game.

Lapses in concentration by the Mavs in those brief few moments were huge.

This is going to be a boring draft, boring free-agency, and boring summer league. :lol:

The same people saying the Celtics didn't play anyone are largely the same people that picked the Mavs to win the series. Never forget. Shhh!!

You incorrectly referred to them as experts. They are certainly not. I chalk it up to most of them just not watching the Celtics enough, or they're just horrible b-ball analysts. Take your pick.
