2025 NBA PLAYOFFS East Semifinals: #2 Boston Celtics vs #3 New York Knicks (NYK leads 3-1)

[f4p]

exactly what i’m afraid of

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.

I'm saying the guys who moved with slightly more grace and agility than me weren't putting nearly as much strain on their bodies.

Hope it's not an Achilles

[Fat]

Let me guess. if the Knicks win the series it’s because Tatum went down

[PierceFan4ever]

I feel depressed. I would be upset with a loss but goddamn to see Tatum like that who never gets injured is rough. I know, it’s just sports but ****

[Revived]

That Steph Curry wave feels like it could be a great meme.

Classic torn Achilles injury. Sucks for Tatum cause that's it for his prime

Huh? He hasn't even reached his prime yet and players bounce back now from it. KD is a perfect example

What? He's gonna miss 1.5 seasons at least. Plus the mental toll it's take back to come back from a torn Achilles. He's young but kd is an outlier and he didn't rely on athleticism much. We've seen what a torn Achilles does to players.

[Indomitable]

Tatum LOL

Laughing at an injured player should be automatic ban you POS

I think that was before he realized Tatum was hurt.

He probably thought he was Lebronning

You know it

Lol ya okay.

[DaGawd]

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.

food? lol

[PushDaRock]

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

it would be surprising if it wasn't, you don't fall like that without contact and grab the back of your ankle in that type of pain for other types of injuries

[heyrayray]

Someone check on Dave Portnoy

Knicks vs pacers ECF. What an awful series that’s going to be.

We’re back to early 2000’s era where the western conference champs destroy the eastern conference champs. It’s a foregone conclusion.

[lethalizer]

Just goes to show, this is just a game of luck at this point man. You're having one of the greatest games of your career and it just goes "pff" like that.

Hope it isn't an Achilles, but either way Tatum's 2025 playoff run is surely done.

[NiceLikeChrist]

Game and series were both in the bag before the Tatum Achilles that’s for sure. Let’s go Knicks.

[jokeboy86]

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


Knicks are making the finals.

Thats all on coaching. Mazzolla may not be Celtics coach for long even with a ring

[levon]

I really hope it's a calf. Achillies is a season ender for next year. We're in May already.

It's likely an achilles. He put a ton of force on that leg to get the ball back. He was writhing from the emotion, not the pain.

Minnesota Indy is the finals the world wants

[LuckyGreen7]

Paul Pierce would have come back in. A little wheel chair ride and back in.

Just saying

[cpower]
