The Boston Celtics don’t have a killer instinct. Play to timid . If Tatum want to be great the time is NOW!!!! Jalen Brown has looked like their best player overall.

Their D is the most aggressive in east. They can shoot 3 lights out. They drive.
What aggression is missing?

The Celtics are hated, no one wants them to win. ESPN, Abc, CBS they all want Golden State to win, screw them. I’ll boycott the coverage of the NBA from now on.

If Celtics win, Lakers feel the pressure. Warriors would be over. The eastern conference would be officially the hardest conference to win. Franchises will look at Boston and build copycat teams. For Boston specifically they will win this one but the east is still open. No guarantee of a back to back

They were asked what would it mean if Celtics won and the dude starts talking about OTHER teams ???? dude it proves that having a team built young from the ground up from drafts and loyalty is effective. He should’ve compared them to Bucks, Grizzles and Warriors because that’s how they became playoff contenders and NOT like the Nets that tried using money and trades and the chemistry was off. This is a new era as in the *next ~10 years* of ball there’s NEW stars are getting developed like Tatum, Morant and Giannis why are they so dense?? Splash bros are aging but they’re leaving behind a legacy with Poole, Kuminga, Wiggins

I think many teams would of gave up on Marcus smart just because he wasn’t a scorer type point guard but Celtics stood with him and he became DPY

It means Defensive flopping will be imitated.
It means chestbumping on shooters will be trend.
It means refs awarding FTAs = more important than outplaying opponents – until NBA makes new rules, and pull that rug out.
CP3 and Harden are examples of how that looks.

The series is about to shift. Curry has been shooting 50% from deep. This is not sustainable, and the law of averages suggests a regression to the mean. Look for his 3% to come down over the next 2 games. Since Golden State relies heavily on their sharpshooter, the reduction in 3-percentage will be met with increase attemtps causing turnovers. Tatum and Brown are due for big scoring games, which throughout the playoffs, have taken place towards the end of each series. Celtics will win in the Bay, followed by a win in Boston, as the Celtics are due for a back-to-back win. Look for this series to be over in 6.

I find it interesting that the entirety of these talking heads (including Stephen A. SMITH!) on NBA and ESPN are only interested in and rooting for the Celtics. Praising them Constantly! Yet condem and degrade GSW at every angle on every point.
