lol, he's gotta get him to that 2nd contract. The quote really was that he "could" probably play another 5-7 but doubted he would.

Phoenix has the highest payroll at 226m and they're not even a .500 team.
Another bad decision by KD.
All KD had to do was say he wants to go to Boston.

Shai is the MVP hands down. 12 straight wins, and doing it minus their 2nd best player. That team is stacked.

Cavs just keep rolling. C’s will have to get on a winning streak to stay clos and hope maybe they will come back down to earth but that team is winning more than 60 games.

We aren't catching the Cavs IMO. They are gunning for the 1 seed and we don't care enough to get it.

Quite honestly i am shocked they have been this consistent. The way they’re playing is the way the Celtics should be playing. Dominating.

After acquiring KAT and Mikal Bridges, the Knicks should be dominating.

Talking about the Cavs here who have beaten everyone and their grandma. Knicks are rolling as well.

If you've been following the NBA long enough you will know dominating December means nothing.
What happened to the 2008-09 Celtics after going 28-4 in December of 2008?
Or how about the rolling Lakers that won the NBA Cup last December?
Like I told you, if we go by your logic, there would be no championship for the Rockets in 1995.

They are right, the cavs and even the knicks have been playing better than us. We are the defending champs, and we should be the class of the league. Also, i’ll take playing good basketball in december than playing meh.

Nobody is saying the Celtics are playing great in December.
The issue is demanding the Celtics dominate.
That's entitlement.
Maybe some can't see the bigger picture.
The Cs are very cautious this season.
If the player is a little hurt, they won't let him play.
Player management for the Cs this season is to the max.
And the players don't play hard because it's obvious they still have championship fatigue.

It would be so egg on face moment if Cavs get knocked out by Philly in the 1st rnd.

Dude you’re really delusional. Going on the road to face the cavs in the playoffs won’t be an easy picnic trust me. Playing it safe is not the way you win Championships. Either way this team better pick it up. Rough stretch here and probably time to man up.
Avoid personal attacks please. Disagree with the post as strongly as you'd like but don't insult the poster himself. -b

Emotional argument like that will just prove my point.
In case you didn't know, the Celtics were unbeaten on the road, in the playoffs, last season.
You're asking me to trust you when you don't even know the facts.
Having home court is not an issue with this Celtics team because this Celtics team is a very good road team.
So if you're telling us if the Cs don't have HCA that will be the reason why the Cs will lose to the Cavs, I also have a bridge to sell to you.

Re: Around the NBA (and other Sports), 2024-25, con't
Even this season the Celtics are doing better on the road than at home.
Already 6 losses at home compared to 3 road losses.
So facing the Cavs on the road is not an easy picnic is DUH!
