Yea. We all know when you said Celtics in 5 you meant Celtics dropping a game 1 dud, giving up a 20 point lead, setting the record for missed 3 pters, and getting embarrassed on their home court.

We all know you definitely didn’t mean the Knicks miraculously squeak out one W at MSG with help from the league to avoid embarrassment.

KP is complete dud anyways. He might as well take the playoffs off. Boston doesn’t need him.

If it takes both the Jays melting down for the Knicks to win by 3 in overtime, I sure as **** wouldn't be acting like I just won the championship.

That's just me though.

Anyway. Celtics in 5. Celtics in 6. Celtics in 7. It doesn't matter. Talent wins out.

This didn't age well.


Mikal had a terrible first game to this postseason run, but has been really good since that debacle.

Most important Knicks did what they needed to do. Celtics got embarrassed blowing that lead and jacking up garbage threes the whole time

Which part is cute? OG having Tatum in the same Cade was in? Why you think they had him come off 40 screens trying to get him off OG, we can play as like Orlando but can score the ball, but you're rite, Celtics in 5 or 6 or 7 or 8 :lol:
