    relax dt can help and stretch the floor and we got batman going crazy kornet is lights out aswell and the injury didn’t happen on a specific play so it probably just a strain, perk is a big so ofc is gonna force it

    If Rob Williams is out for the playoffs unfortunately I don’t think we are favorites

      Horford can take the role

    Lmfao, didn’t Legler lean toward Philly after the Harden Trade? 😂😂😂. These guys have no integrity

      Yeah but he’s not playing how he used to

    Damm. I’m a 76ers fan but I was really hyped to see Rob Williams come thru😭

    I like how the graphic in the bottom showed every team except Toronto. A team with championship experience, who has the best road record in the east, who has the 3rd best record in the NBA since Dec 31, who has beat up on all of the current playoff teams this season. Siakam is playing at all NBA level, vanvleet is as steady as they come, Barnes is playing like a player well beyond his years, Trent can get hot as anyone, precisious getting better every day, OG is now back. They are indeed a formidable team that should not be disrespected or underlooked.

      Agreed. Ignoring the raptors gonna bite them back later

    • Steven Torres

      Raptors aint winning the east . No way

    • King Pharaoh

      March 28, 2022 at 2:01 pm

      Y’all don’t have that vocal leader an y’all don’t that closer honestly. Siakam isn’t that yet.

    • killerqueen2000

      March 28, 2022 at 2:21 pm

      @King Pharaoh u wrong about the leader part but yeah they don’t have a closer or potentially enough shooting

    • King Pharaoh

      March 28, 2022 at 3:19 pm

      @killerqueen2000 who would you consider there leader. An when I mean leader. I mean vocal leader who’s actually leading his team lebron Kd Chris Paul type leadership.

    Love how they praised the Celtics taking LeBron to 7 in 2018. Everyone knows that LeBron really didn’t start trying until they were down 2-0 in that series. They were no match for the Cavs once they turned up their effort. Just like how the 2016 Raptors who took Cleveland to 6 wasn’t a real threat.

    • Sean Reilly

      March 28, 2022 at 2:51 pm

      Lol OK 🤣🤣🤡

    • Patrick Ghadban

      March 28, 2022 at 3:18 pm

      Watch how hard LeBron tried in game 2 before getting blown out and come back to this comment

    Celtics fan here — gotta have a healthy Time Lord to win it all. But this team can beat anyone in the East. A Celtics vs Suns matchup in the Finals would be epic.

    • Tee Sweeezy

      March 28, 2022 at 5:25 pm

      You know your stuff 💯

    • Atty. Fernando G. Madarcos

      March 28, 2022 at 11:55 pm

      Yeah they can beat anyone in the east but can they beat the Bucks 4 games…

      We’ll see hehe

    • Marc C

      March 31, 2022 at 4:22 pm

      @Atty. Fernando G. Madarcos i think they can def beat the Bucks with Rob Will. Without him? Yeaa nahhh lmfao

  9. Luther R.

    March 28, 2022 at 1:53 pm

    It’s not like the celtics never won a game before without Rob. We’re unstoppable with him but there still a great team without him. This will solidify Marcus Smart for dpoy if they still roll out the wins.

    • Rams Eye Bryant

      March 28, 2022 at 2:32 pm

      I was at the game last night didn’t even notice he got injured … but yea it’s a wrap …. Besides horford there are no other legitimate big men on this team

  10. Dave rodgers

    March 28, 2022 at 1:59 pm

    Robert williams is out for weeks. Sad news. Its over for C’s

  11. Aneesh Anand

    March 28, 2022 at 2:11 pm

    The team to beat is the team that plays the best in the playoffs.

  12. Muneeb Adamo

    March 28, 2022 at 2:23 pm

    Man Rob Williams situation got me stressed. I just hope we somehow get Cleveland or Chicago in round one n hopefully Rob is back for round 2. No offence Chicago or Cleveland

    • Howling Fox Sports

      March 28, 2022 at 3:18 pm

      Just not charlotte or toronto

    • Gino Moore

      March 28, 2022 at 7:02 pm

      That’s funny if Chicago is fully healthy with lonzo it’s a wrap we can beat anyone thats a fact 💯 but u forget the only reason we dipped like we did is because we been literally missing half our team all season long and our main guys at that our defense anchors and lonzo and Caruso is one of the best defenders in the game and pat is also a very good defender so we been under size alone all season and I mean we still under size regardless for sure even fully healthy thats a fact for sure and we definitely need to get some good defensive bigs in the off season for sure possible trade vooch for a key piece or 2 but he has been playing good overall so but out of the big 3 or whatever u wanna call it he would definitely be the most expendable bc lonzo lavine and demar ain’t going no where and neither is curuso ayo or coby and green actually but every one else is up in the air I would say Jones is a key piece too honestly bc he’s a good defender and high energy guy TT is a important piece to if he play how he suppose too for sure another high energy tough player

    • Gino Moore

      March 28, 2022 at 7:04 pm

      But yes Boston definitely has been playing very good for sure and there gonna be tough match up for sure regardless no doubt but personally I’d rather match up with them or Toronto or Cleveland or 76ers or bucks for sure and nets

    • Gino Moore

      March 28, 2022 at 7:04 pm

      So my point is don’t sleep on Chicago they ain’t gonna be a easy out regardless like I mean there’s a good chance yal will beat us for sure if we don’t get lonzo back thats a fact 💯 but if we do then that’s gonna be a good tough down to the wire full 7 games series I bet

    • KurinKato

      March 28, 2022 at 7:25 pm

      @Gino Moore yall not beating anyone in the top 4 seeds in the east especially the Bucks them boys own you guys

  13. Kellen Edwards

    March 28, 2022 at 2:30 pm

    Without Rob Will we arent going past round 2, so unfortunately no

  14. Wendigo sdfgwsedrf

    March 28, 2022 at 2:46 pm

    They are out in the first round

  15. MJS FAM

    March 28, 2022 at 3:09 pm

    It’s over we getting eliminated in first round

  16. The Guy

    March 28, 2022 at 3:21 pm

    Celtics aren’t winning it all! I would bet my life on it

    • Timothy Holloway

      March 28, 2022 at 5:03 pm

      I’m gonna remember this comment

    • The Guy

      March 28, 2022 at 5:55 pm

      @Timothy Holloway This year*😂

  17. DeuceGotNext

    March 28, 2022 at 3:40 pm

    Still not worried about no team ☘️☘️☘️

  18. Said Jama

    March 28, 2022 at 4:00 pm

    It’s funny how they mentioned top 5 teams and usually they used to do top 6… go raptors

  19. Gemini Joso

    March 28, 2022 at 4:34 pm

    Disappointed in all the Celtics fans in the comments rn. Yes Williams is out for a while which is a HUGE LOSS but where is the heart at , yall just gonna lose all hope?

  20. Your Fly Is Open

    March 28, 2022 at 5:57 pm

    Nope, just like y’all wouldn’t give my Heat attention like that, keep that same energy. We know your favorites are the Bucks, Nets, and Sixers.

  21. Darben Ferrer

    March 28, 2022 at 7:43 pm

    You all guys forgetting Daniel Theis, that’s why he was brought back to Boston its because of like this. He’s a capable back up to Robert Williams III

  22. iamlegend148

    March 28, 2022 at 9:20 pm

    no. the easy is just crazy number 1 seed done switched so much

  23. Clutch Buckets

    March 28, 2022 at 11:14 pm

    Well the guy with the tattoo of 2022 champs Celtics is screwed now. No Williams, no chance.

  24. Dmangoham Solid!

    March 30, 2022 at 8:29 pm
