Is Boston really struggling (AGAIN) to beat a mediocre Pacers team withOut their best player...?

[thedangerouskitchen]

Second game in a row the 64-win 100% healthy Celtics are struggling mightily to beat a mediocre 47-win Pacers team withOut their best player... and this is "supposed to be" the best that the Modern Era has to offer?



C'mon...

Spoiler:

Cue the BWGC (to give us stuff and reasons why the Haliburton-less Pacers would beat any team from the 90's) in 5, 4, 3, 2, 1...

100% healthy…lol. They’ve been missing a starter for two weeks. You’re a moron.

[Uncontroversial]

Nobody outside of boston thinks the celtics are the best team of this era. Any one of the top 5 seeds in the west would obliterate them

Luka averaged 34, 9 and 10 and is going to the finals at age 25.

This is problematic for Jordan's legacy

I see you have a new bandwagon you’ve attached to.

Siakam is their leading scorer. But Indiana had 9 guys average double digit points this year, so they don't just rely on one guy to do the heavy lifting. That's what everyone keeps telling you about today's depth. A main player can go down and someone else steps up. Nembhard averaged 9.2 points per game in the regular season. Haliburton sits out the last 2 games and Nembhard puts up 32 points and 24 so far again tonight.

And a SWEEP is hardly “struggling”.

Boston used voodoo to make sure Embiid, Giannis, the entire Knicks roster, Haliburton, and Acuna got injured.

Lmao, did you just bring Luka up in a goat comparison? I thought Artie was dumb but yikes.

[thedangerouskitchen]

Hardly a "great" victory, and should certainly be worrisome for the Celtics that they sttuggled so mightily against a mediocre team missing its best player.

Sorry rob but the truth is the truth.

This is nothing... sadmess was on the board recently touting Anthony Edwards as better than the GOAT MJ.

He's really become a terrible troll... always been bad of course, but lately he's been on artman's level.

Figures. Lots of idiots on this board.

Incredibly weak competition missing some of the best players on every team for several games each series.

That said, you play who's in front of you.

I forgot to add Jimmy Butler too.

Mavs will embarrass the celtics

Perhaps.
