Celtics are finished

Post by elartman1973 »

BREAKING: Kristaps Porzingis suffered a torn medial retinaculum allowing dislocation of the posterior tibialis tendon and is considered day-to-day.

Joe Mazzulla says this is a “serious injury” and the Celtics’ medical team will make the decision about Kristaps Porzingis’ availability. “He’s doing anything and everything he can to be able to play,” Mazzulla said.

Honestly even if they win, this is supposed to be the 'most talented' era ever according to some modern simps, from what I've watched of these finals this level of basketball is pathetic, anyone that thinks either of these two teams are beating the bird Celtics, Isiah pistons or magic Lakers are out of their minds. Nobody is going to remember or talk about this finals and they'll quickly be a forgotten footnote in NBA history, mid level talent teams at best. This era is a joke

Oh look, it's the non-NBA fan talking about the NBA again! :lol:

The Bulls didn't even win a title when they lost Horace Grant, and the 1986 Celtics didn't win a title when they lost Bill Walton, who was a backup center at the time. Even the 2017/18 Warriors lost in 2019 when some pieces were lost through injury.

The 2024 Celtics losing KP, but winning a title anyway would mark them as the CLEAR GOAT team with no possible arguments against.

Losing KP makes the series more risky, but the reward much higher.

Non starter out for games and win makes them greatest team ever.

I am going to get drunk, sober out and drunk again to even understand the most fucked up post I have ever read from the great Busch.

Hell they only have to win 2 of the next 4 games.

All it took was losing a backup center for the 1986 Celtics to not win a title.

Where do people rank the 1986 Celtics all-time? Boomers usually rank them in the top 5. Some even as the GOAT team.

Ditto with the Curry/Durant Warriors in 2019. A GOAT-tier team took a few injuries and blam-o....no title.

Being robust against injuries to important players would be a feather in the cap....history shows pretty clearly how great teams can be surprisingly fragile in the face of injuries.

64 regular season wins and 4th best net rating in history within the best era of ball ever.
Best starter +/- in year
Best bench +/- in year
Best offense in year
Potentially going 16-2 in the playoffs, despite losing arguably their 3rd most important player at a critical juncture.

It's not arguable at the point, assuming they finish the job.

You are literally arguing against two plus two equaling four.

lmao

I'm pretty sure not every team was injured all year around, over an 82 game schedule.

The C's playoff dominance is simply a continuation of what they did in the regular season.

They had a net rating of 14.2 against the West this year.

By comparison, the 1996 Bulls had a net rating of 14.0 against the East.

This is a historically great team, by any meaningful metric.

I know it's difficult as a Magic fun to understand greatness, but it's still a fact.

The celtics playoffs have been absolutely embarrassing compared to real teams You're trying to discredit.
You wouldn't know what being a real fan is about.
Stop pretending you're a fan.
It's cringey

Ignored until you learn how to act in the face of a real man, who is better than you in all facets of life, who is a fan of a team that is overwhelmingly superior to yours.
