Re: Assuming they win the title, how high are the 2024 Celtics all-time?
Bush is most definitely triggered AND shook up AF in this thread...
That being said, Boston faced 48, 46, 47 and 50 win opponents (lol), with 3 of those 4 teams crippled with injuries to their best player/s.
Outside of some of LeBron and Russell's opponents (in the 2010's and 50's/part of the 60's respectively) I challenge bush to find another NBA Champion who faced weaker competition than these 2024 Celtics.
I'll wait... and in the meantime I'll go fix myself a corned beef sammich on pumpernickel (hold the dressing, cheese and kraut) because I have a feeling I'll be waiting for a while.

My time machine is updated. Players from the early 70's learn how to shoot from long distance. Bigs shoot the 3 as well. Bigs have ball skills.Bush4Ever. wrote: ↑Thu Jun 13, 2024 3:49 pmNo, not really.
There is absolutely no team from 1980-1989 that would be time-machined to the present day and beat teams like the Pelicans, Lakers, Heat, etc...
None.

Re: Assuming they win the title, how high are the 2024 Celtics all-time?
I find it hilarious that certain fans think chucking up 25 footers 40% of the time somehow makes today's NBA superior.
I mean, think about it... the goal is to create EASY Offense, yet in today's Modern NBA (where Defense has never been weaker/softer) these players are taking the most difficult shots and MISSING them 65% of the time (on average)... and that's supposed to make the players and the game better (in the minds of certain fans who obviously aren't very astute hoops fans, but that's a different topic entirely).

TDK, you can't talk about anything basketball-related until the 2025 season starts up.
You've been demonstrably wrong on literally every single (meaningful) specific claim you've made this year, except on the Magic and that was just you parroting me.
It's not even hitting beyond the Mendoza line...it's like you got to flip the first digit of your batting average to a 1.
So if you can get your BA up above .100...I'll answer reasonable and thoughtful questions. Not until (I've already addressed that one anyway).

Keep deflecting bush, you're just proving that TDK is correct about the 2024 Celtics.

I've answered your queries 10x over in other places, directly to you.
You just don't understand them because of your limited ability.
Will you apologize for calling the Celtics a scrub team that (quote) "didn't have a prayer of winning the title"?
I bet not. You lack integrity
lmao

Well, I got to go.
I expect the following from non-Celtics fans, after they close the series (earlier is better, but after it's official is the minimum):
1. A sincere apology to me and other Celtics fans for competing with us and wasting our fucking time this year.
2. A thoughtful action plan about how you are going to either become Celtics fans in the future, or maintain your current team while holding the Celtics in a higher and more esteemed place.
3. Some level of reflection (two paragraphs is fine), about how Celtics fans are better than other fans, and what it means to the board going forward. Specific examples would be valued and appreciated.

They're definitely worse than 67 Sixers and 83 Sixers.

Corrected your mistake.Bush4Ever. wrote: ↑Thu Jun 13, 2024 11:31 am So what's the vote, after Artman and TDK are set to eat a LOT of humble pie?
I still say 2nd best all-time, behind the 2017 Warriors (assuming they finish it from here on out in a reasonable manner).
Potentially capping it all off with 11 straight playoff wins in a row.
1. 96 Bulls
2. 2017 Warriors
3. 2024 Celtics
4. 1972 Lakers
5. 1971 Bucks

This is one of the best troll threads in a long time. Bush got a lot of people going... and not just the one all too obvious usual suspect.

See, this is why you're a stupid man (or the world's easiest mark, take your pick): Nobody "gets me" when they make obvious foolish statements (like the 2024 Celtics are the second greatest team in NBA history - lol).

It's really that simple. You're just not very bright, grizz.

This reminds me that you aren't old enough to have experienced a Sixers title in your lifetime. Sad...
Think of how stupid the average person is, and realize half of them are dumber than that.
