In the deciding moments the Celtics only resorted to chucking threes. So fitting to lose like that.

Everyone saying achilles. I'm waiting for one of those internet docs to come out and say something.

Well no repeat sadly. Now just gotta hope Tatum isn't cooked for next season. That's why you don't mess around with your food.

The whole second half was nothing but dribbling whenever Tatum was on the floor. Barely a pass in sight.

Respect to the Knicks, though, because they still scored 120.

Modern sports are a bitch on the body. We used to have entire playoffs without significant injuries to any stars. Now every playoff is shaped by them.


I thought we were advanced? So you're telling me the guys that had to work plumbing jobs on the side were actually more durable than the mighty 2025 crew with advanced technologies, nutritionists, personal trainers, etc?

Weird.

Bridges has been the best wing this series. He carried the team with Brunson off the floor & was a perfect release valve off the Brunson drives

You can't blow 3 games from at least 15-20 points leads.


Knicks are making the finals.

There have been a few already on Twitter saying that’s what it looks like.
