I hope the majority of fans at this point realize Kyrie is who he is. Doubtful because people love to dump on Boston.


YOu could tell he hadn't experienced even "subtle racism" at the Garden by his smirk and deflection, then claim that he wasn't the only one who could attest to it, when asked.

Joe Harris just shot .475 from the three. He's not a "good" shooter on par with Fournier or Kemba. Is he feasting off of open shots created by KD and Harden? Well he shot .424 last year and .474 the year before. He's also an exceptional finisher at the rim and moves without the ball like a savant. It's not debatable that he's better than Fournier or Smart or 2020-21 Kemba, and it's a real question whether we'd be better off with a Joe Harris over Jaylen. He's really good.

You're the one who responded to me (Please Use More Appropriate Word)

I'm not going to be holding your hand and walking you through a basic conversation

Nah, you're just deflecting. Nothing you posted has anything to do with the issue at hand. Hence why you can't answer the simple question I posed. Not a damn thing you responded with has anything to do with Marcus Smart and others players documented experiences in the city of Boston


Bro you're not even part of this conversation. Honestly it's kind of embarrassing on your part, but I'll spell it out for you because you're trying to argue with a straw man.

The person I responded to was discussing various reasons on why Boston is not a FA destination in the GT. My response was that they were throwing a bunch of random reasons at the wall, some of which were valid and not valid.

In the context of that conversation , Kyrie saying he experienced racist **** in Boston doesn't even register to me. Why? Because all of America experiences racist ****. That's why BLM was a thing last year.

So please, you look like a **** idiot for trying to trap me in a corner with the Marcus Smart ****.

Just to spell it out for you some more, that's the reason why I juxtapose Lebron's racist experience with signing in LA (a hot FA destination) vs Boston.

And I was responding strictly to your dismissal of Kyrie's claims because he's a "flat earther". Not your back and forth with Cave, truth or whoever else you have an axe to grind with. If you're going to dismiss Kyrie's supposed experiences due to a perceived lack of credibility then what do you have to say about Smart saying he's experienced the very same things?

So yeah...your LA deflection still does not have a damn thing to do with anything I said. Like...at all. You can play the "every city is racist!" card all you want, and that's true to a degree. But to act like Boston does not have a unique history of racism, including fairly recent history is absurd. There's a reason the city has the reputation it does, and it's not because everyone is out to get us.

Boston is racist as ****! Kyrie was right to leave because he experienced racism in Boston at the hands of belligerent Celtics fans.

Are you happy now? Honestly I don't give a **** about this racism conversation at all but if it helps you sleep better at night knowing I acknowledged that Boston is a racist shithole then I'll do it for you, fellow Celtics fan.

The Celtics organization doesn't have **** to do with the racism in the city of Boston. In fact, the Celtics have been a fairly progressive organization throughout history.

Reading comprehension might not be your strong suit. How am I defending anyone when I just shat on both the CeltiKKKs and the **** hole of a city Boston for being racist. **** Massachusetts and the entire New England area just to be safe. **** 'em all for being racist.

This is the only thing I can do now since you're trying to put words in my mouth and imply I'm a racist :)

Another TERRIBLE decision by Brad. Totally fed up


Not sure Robert Williams would have done much to stop Joe Harris hitting 4 three's in like a minute.

TT had 15 and 11 on like 80% shooting. Dude is solid.

Stats wise, most guys besides JT and Pritchard were ok. Still well below average but nothing awful. Just completely outclassed. Hoping that being home helps Pritchard, Nesmith and Tatum find their shots. I feel like we have at least one big offensive game in us as a team.. But apparwntly JT has a groin injury from game 1.. If that's true we are cooked.


TT has a net rating of -39.9 in this series. He is just KILLING the team out there. Total abomination

Although painful to watch, I feel like this is the best thing that can happen. Ownership, Ainge, and Stevens are all going to be under immense pressure this offseason. Ainge will have no choice but to be ultra aggressive to change the mix around Tatum and Brown.

Give me a break. Boston had racial issues In The 1960s with busing.

NYC was sued under Bloomberg fir stop abd frisk and had Eric garner killed for a loosie.

And Boston got a problem?

Boston no more or less racist than any other city. Go down into the depth south and see racism.

It isn’t happening in Boston. Lord. Give me a break. City has changed is much from the 1960s it isn’t even close.

Boston is as a progressive a city as there is in the United States. Always has been.

He had to deal Brown. That's the only way to get either good enough talent to compete or get bad enough to tank.

So they DEFINITELY threw KD out of the game last night for poking Tatum's eye out..... right? Because I'm old enough to remember Smart getting kicked out for an accidental nut shot (and AD definitely got thrown for a nut kick last night, right?)
