The Celts have been so disrespected since winning it all I think they will be pissed enough to win it again. They didn't let Jaylen on the USA team, sit Tatum on that same team and then the media said they didn't beat anyone to deserve the title.
They are in a good position roster wise and coaching wise to repeat. In addition to the fact that they have added motivation like you said. Everyone on the celtics can dribble, pass and shoot and defend at a high level. Derek White and Jrue holiday are excellent at making plays in clutch situations and the team has chemistry. I like the Celtics to face the Mavericsk again in the NBA Finals.
They might pull a 2016 Warriors. This is the same arc that they went through in the 2015 offseason. Consistently disrespected by the media, best player didn’t win FMVP, “hospital run” etc
@@gumdeo dude averaged 79.7 for FT% in the finals (he won 5) and people still believe the guys from that era couldn't shoot, that's a better % than Tatum, Brown, Wade, LeBron, and many more, he's just 1% less than Michael Jordan!!
@@penkima4923 same way if you can't write properly it doesn't mean that every LeBron fan can't. And btw there's another center from the 50's that shot even better than Mikan and mind you, Bill Sharman shot better in the finals from the FT line than Steph Curry and Kevin Durant which are the best guys from this era really.

@@Fixundfertig1 So, now it's two players who can shoot, and you're still saying every player in that era could shoot. That's just shoddy logic. Nothing to do with brain washing.
GS aren't a "long shot" to win anything, they're "no shot." They hate their star player Curry so much that they've kept that manchild, who's cost them at least one chip, Draymond and let Klay go instead. GS won't even make the play-in this year IMO. If things don't change, Curry won't sniff another chip the rest of his life.
@@YamoLivewhat do you mean if? Steph is a solo star at this point, unless they get Giannis or Luka in the next 2 years Steph ain’t winning no more championships.
It's gonna be Boston again. I don't see any team being able to hang with em on offense, defense, and depth. I like OKC or Dallas coming out of the west but again, idk if anyone can hang with Boston in a series.
Suns added Tyus Jones and Monte Morris to get the backcourt with legit PG play and improved their backup center position as well as drafted Ryan Dunn who looks to be a solid perimeter defender. They may surprise some people this year.
Thunder is deep and stacked. Boston will have a tough time this year if they reach the finals. Can the owners please give Jokić some help in the trade deadline!? His team only has one marquee player!
If there is a playmaker who can make Russel westbrook into a all star caliber player or at least give him a chance to win 6th man of the year that is Jokic. That dude is insane, he made Jamal Murray look like a All Star snub, without Jokic Murray is at best a above average player and nowhere close to all star
Is jokic going to make Westbrook a better shooter? Is he going to turn Westbrook from a low IQ player to an high IQ player? Players always make the same mistake thinking they can win with westbrick.

Warriros are a dark horse this season, which makes them scary. They have no expectations and people don’t understand that losing Klay and CP made them younger. Last year’s team looked old and slow. They needed to get younger and deeper
Klay hasn't played one game for them, yet. Not that he's going to help any team anymore. The main problem is that Luka is so fat now, that he's done playing when the playoffs start. They probably won't make the finals.

Not true. Led the team in most stats for the majority of the playoffs. His jumper was off though, so the offense did suffer a bit at times because of it. He was still of impact elsewhere.
@@mikeRedMDK2032 I watched every game. They won in spite of him. Them stats cover up his play but if you watched, he was a liability every game. He shrunk in both finals appearances. Jaylen porzingis and like one other guy I forget who, all won the team a game a piece. His ass didn't do his job
@@USA-190 nothing says I lack intelligence like having to insult a stranger without making a real point. But anyway. If you watched those games, you'd at least get where I'm coming from. His jumper was ass. He didn't school Luka either. Yeah that's my white boy. Luka was out there alone damn near. Jayson had the finals MVP jaylen brown, revenge tour porzingis, jrue holiday all carrying his ass. I am a Tatum hater but I'm not wrong
You only watched the highlights. Can tell your broke ass can't even afford an NBA subscription. Not even mav b-ball heads are saying this. You're a casual.
2 Records to keep an eye on this year... 1)LeBrons all-time turnover record currently stands at 5,211. He is comforably in 1st place ahead of Westbrooks 4,597. Its doubtful LeBron can make it to 5,600 turnovers but i believe in him!! 2)LeBrons consecutive GameTying/GameWinning FGs missed in the clutch streak currently stands at 16. He has not sank a clutch shot while his team is trailing since Febuary of 2021. Some think Lebron wants to extend this number to 24 to honour the Late Kobe, which would have me losing my 'over' bet by 6 games
@@YamoLive Steph won all of his rings the right way 🤦🏿♂️. He did absolutely nothing wrong and anyone who says different is thinking illogically and emotionally. Why wouldn't the Warriors get KD off of free agency? It makes no sense at all. They should have let him go somewhere else and beat them just to make non Warriors fans happy?
@@YamoLive in both game 5 and 6 the Cavs only had 3 more free throws than the Warriors. In game 7 they had 12 more but the reason is simple. They played physical and attacked the paint, while Golden State brilliantly decided to attempt 41 threes (the Cavs only attempted 25 that game). Injuries? Really? You just called the 2015 ring legit despite Love and Irving being injured, but this shouldn’t be legit because Bogut was hurt? That’s some serious hypocrisy 🤣🤣 8 years later and still hurts…huh?😭

Cool. But just make sure you put some Respect on Lamar's name!!!!! That's all I'm saying Skap!!! Lay off Lamar. It's unwarranted! Does he need to be better in the playoffs yes! But he don't deserve the slander and he is one of the greatest football players EVER!!!! Definitely the best Duo threat EVER!!!! stop disrespecting him. He humble, plays the game the right way and just wants to win!!!!!! You would know this if you actually watched the games!!!!! A lot of his short comings unfortunately have to do with Hardbaugh and coaching. I've been a Ravens fan since 05 and I've watched almost every snap of Lamar. Stop disrespecting him!
A lot of his shortcomings includes him too, cant say he’s one of the best ever and don’t include him in his own shortcomings & bein humble doesn’t mean nothing on the field, its about performance
@Skap Attack You see the ESPN article about Bronny?😮😮😮 I couldn't believe my eyes......not for the reason people may actually think. THEY DID THEIR JOB FOR ONCE!!! It's crazy!!!!!! 😂 That writer has some balls, the LeMob will not like this.
@cherimoneeboone7127 No, you simpleton. Their job is to report on sports. They talk about lebron 24/7, so it only makes sense that would address this. They really hadn't til now, ignoring how much of a joke it is that he got drafted to begin with. They finally did, and it was actually spot on, which is a surprise to many sports fans. I have no idea why I have to spell that out for you.... wait, maybe simpleton is actually apt for you.
Nuggets also signed a 7ft G-leaguer Charles Bediako. After seeing the Nuggets lose out to Minnesota's size I was saying it could help the Nuggets to have another 7fter on the court so that Minnesota's bigs don't crowd and wear out Jokic. Hopefully Christian Braun has developed and is ready for that starting role. Why does Denver lose their championship pieces every offseason (Bruce Brown, KCP)?
The losses of Brown and especially KCP are huge, Denver is probably not winning anymore. It’s sad to see how they won 1 ring and just kept worsening their roster. If they think Westbrook is gonna fix their problems they’re in for a surprise 💀
@@Robss_ Very sad. Perhaps Denver can be improved if Westbrook is a 6th man leading their bench? Can't see him in the starting lineup, and he seemed pleased in recent interviews that Malone is going to let him play to his strengths like running the floor.
@@jordanjenkins1671 yeah that’s the only way I can see him fit. He can be the playmaker of the team when Jokic rests. With Jokic on the floor russ would need to improve his off ball movement to be effective because as of now on offense he can only be productive with the ball in his hands, but of course if Jokic is on the court the ball won’t belong to Russ.
I dont people realize that the Celtics are going to buzzsaw their way to a repeat. Just head and shoulders the best team in the league and its not even kinda close
3 players from that Super Celtics Team won USA the 2024 Olympics Gold Medal...& Brown almost qualified also in that US team if not for some circumstances.
You know I'm a massive fan of yours, but I think you're trippin when you said the Warriors did "virtually nothing and made NO off-season acquisitions." Given how inconsistent and defensively nonexistent Klay has been the last 2+ years, I truly believe losing Klay but adding Buddy Hield, Melton, and SloMo could be an UPGRADE. Buddy could run a blitzkrieg of 3s with Steph's gravity, and Melton and Anderson are unequivocal upgrades on the defensive end, something the Dubs have desperately needed... i think they'll make the playoffs and nobody will want to catch them in the first round -- unless Steph gets injured or Donkey Dipshit murders someone...

And he's pretending to be a point guard. "definitely the worst PG in NBA history" He insists on playing outside the arc, and even though fans are literally chanting "Don't shoot the three!" at him, he keeps jacking up air-balls and bricks. To the extent of being called Westbrick, now. He can't shoot from his own playing position on the floor. He already passed Karl Malone as the 2nd most turnover-prone player in history, even though he's played 3 seasons less. And he's supposed to handle the ball. He's extremely selfish, padding stats, and hogging the ball in the clutch to take awful shots and make bad decisions. Yes. Worst PG in NBA history.
In the play-in, Fox decided that it was a good idea to toss up twice the 3-pointers than in the regular season, shooting 25 %. And Sabonis has been consistently horrible in the post-season. I'm not laughing, because they've been a sad team.

A Thunder Knicks NBA finals would be fun
I'm a Celtics fans, and I generally agree with everything you said about this upcoming season, but what's with the Joe Mazzulla hate at the end? There was no need for that
He is a hater do you not watch him page that’s all he does is hate usually on Lebron
@@cherimoneeboone7127 Well, the LeBron hate is why I'm subscribed, so... I'm not as extreme as dear Snap, though. LeBron is the second greatest player of all time
@@BoeJiden8814 you’re subscribed to see a bunch of LeBron hate videos? 😂😂
I was about to comment that
Why are you comparing Mazzula with Mark
Mazzula just won a ring
What about Bronny James? I heard he's ballin in pre season games 😅
Nice preview.
This year will either be really good or really disappointing as a whole. I don't even have a team anymore i just used to like watching the games alot more growing up than i do now. Lotta talent out there
New Video Idea, “Josh Allen, Media Coddled Bum”
Yes the streak will continue but it will be DALLAS and LUKA that break the streak nad have the next dynasty
Those Lakers button-up warm ups - with the collar - are so bizarre looking, especially as worn by Mikan and Kareem with the very top button buttoned
Out of the west it’s between okc and Dallas.denver seem to be sabotaging jokic,they’d be a lottery team without joker.such a shame.mavs go to the finals and add klay,naji,grimes,dinwiddie .okc add hartenstein and Caruso,Minnie got Vincenzo and randle.what did the nuggets do? Westbrick to replace kcp.disgusting
Skap totally glossed over Dallas having beat 4 50 win teams last season and their offseason additions to their roster.
Did he say the corpse of Russell Westbrook???? 😂😂😂
I see what you did at the end there skap smh, but facts is none of those thunder players have chips lol #celticsin5 #back2back #2025NBACHAMPIONS
Hey Skap, are you going to see the Netflix show Starting 5?
I can guarantee 100% that this channel is a LeBron fan 7:30
Jayson Tatum got carried to his first ring. As the best player on the team. That's crazy work
Your brain is being carried to casual thinking saying some stupid shit like that breh 🚬 ya favorite euro got schooled deal wit it
Not true. Led the team in most stats for the majority of the playoffs. His jumper was off though, so the offense did suffer a bit at times because of it. He was still of impact elsewhere.
@@mikeRedMDK2032 I watched every game. They won in spite of him. Them stats cover up his play but if you watched, he was a liability every game. He shrunk in both finals appearances. Jaylen porzingis and like one other guy I forget who, all won the team a game a piece. His ass didn't do his job
@@USA-190 nothing says I lack intelligence like having to insult a stranger without making a real point. But anyway. If you watched those games, you'd at least get where I'm coming from. His jumper was ass. He didn't school Luka either. Yeah that's my white boy. Luka was out there alone damn near. Jayson had the finals MVP jaylen brown, revenge tour porzingis, jrue holiday all carrying his ass. I am a Tatum hater but I'm not wrong
You only watched the highlights. Can tell your broke ass can't even afford an NBA subscription. Not even mav b-ball heads are saying this. You're a casual.
2 Records to keep an eye on this year...
1)LeBrons all-time turnover record currently stands at 5,211. He is comforably in 1st place ahead of Westbrooks 4,597. Its doubtful LeBron can make it to 5,600 turnovers but i believe in him!!
2)LeBrons consecutive GameTying/GameWinning FGs missed in the clutch streak currently stands at 16. He has not sank a clutch shot while his team is trailing since Febuary of 2021. Some think Lebron wants to extend this number to 24 to honour the Late Kobe, which would have me losing my 'over' bet by 6 games
Lol.everyone seriously giving shai too much credit now
What do you mean? Didn't he earn it?
Joel embiid is the goat he wins the championship every year sixers fans are so lucky
I will never understand why you're always throwing shade at Steph Curry. Are you salty that he didnt beat Lebron in 2016 still?
@@YamoLive Steph won all of his rings the right way 🤦🏿♂️. He did absolutely nothing wrong and anyone who says different is thinking illogically and emotionally. Why wouldn't the Warriors get KD off of free agency? It makes no sense at all. They should have let him go somewhere else and beat them just to make non Warriors fans happy?
@@YamoLive”wish the league didn’t cheat him out of that 16 ring” is a weird way to say that he choked a 3-1 lead 😭
@@YamoLive in both game 5 and 6 the Cavs only had 3 more free throws than the Warriors. In game 7 they had 12 more but the reason is simple. They played physical and attacked the paint, while Golden State brilliantly decided to attempt 41 threes (the Cavs only attempted 25 that game).
Injuries? Really? You just called the 2015 ring legit despite Love and Irving being injured, but this shouldn’t be legit because Bogut was hurt? That’s some serious hypocrisy 🤣🤣
8 years later and still hurts…huh?😭
@@YamoLive Why wouldn't the Warriors add the best free agent to their roster. It literally makes no sense at all. You can't even answer that question because it's illogical.
@@YamoLive look at how quickly you switched the argument 🤣🤣🤣
“Beta male” 💀
Okay big alpha wolf 😭🙏
Cool. But just make sure you put some Respect on Lamar's name!!!!! That's all I'm saying Skap!!! Lay off Lamar. It's unwarranted! Does he need to be better in the playoffs yes! But he don't deserve the slander and he is one of the greatest football players EVER!!!! Definitely the best Duo threat EVER!!!! stop disrespecting him. He humble, plays the game the right way and just wants to win!!!!!! You would know this if you actually watched the games!!!!! A lot of his short comings unfortunately have to do with Hardbaugh and coaching. I've been a Ravens fan since 05 and I've watched almost every snap of Lamar. Stop disrespecting him!
A lot of his shortcomings includes him too, cant say he’s one of the best ever and don’t include him in his own shortcomings & bein humble doesn’t mean nothing on the field, its about performance
Lmao are you his family member? The dudes a running back playing QB and he can't even beat the Steelers let alone the chiefs.
LeBum and LeNepo ready to fight for play in spot
HOUSTON ROCKETS ANYBODY? THE DISRESPECT IS REAL....THE 713 NEVER FORGETS. YOU'VE BEEN WARNED😮
@Skap Attack
You see the ESPN article about Bronny?😮😮😮
I couldn't believe my eyes......not for the reason people may actually think.
THEY DID THEIR JOB FOR ONCE!!! It's crazy!!!!!! 😂
That writer has some balls, the LeMob will not like this.
When has espn ever said he was good at basketball? lol ya be so delusional
@cherimoneeboone7127
No, you simpleton.
Their job is to report on sports. They talk about lebron 24/7, so it only makes sense that would address this. They really hadn't til now, ignoring how much of a joke it is that he got drafted to begin with. They finally did, and it was actually spot on, which is a surprise to many sports fans.
I have no idea why I have to spell that out for you.... wait, maybe simpleton is actually apt for you.
Would I be crazy to say I’d take bruson this year over curry and lillard?
Nuggets also signed a 7ft G-leaguer Charles Bediako. After seeing the Nuggets lose out to Minnesota's size I was saying it could help the Nuggets to have another 7fter on the court so that Minnesota's bigs don't crowd and wear out Jokic. Hopefully Christian Braun has developed and is ready for that starting role. Why does Denver lose their championship pieces every offseason (Bruce Brown, KCP)?
The losses of Brown and especially KCP are huge, Denver is probably not winning anymore. It’s sad to see how they won 1 ring and just kept worsening their roster. If they think Westbrook is gonna fix their problems they’re in for a surprise 💀
@@Robss_ Very sad. Perhaps Denver can be improved if Westbrook is a 6th man leading their bench? Can't see him in the starting lineup, and he seemed pleased in recent interviews that Malone is going to let him play to his strengths like running the floor.
@@jordanjenkins1671 yeah that’s the only way I can see him fit. He can be the playmaker of the team when Jokic rests. With Jokic on the floor russ would need to improve his off ball movement to be effective because as of now on offense he can only be productive with the ball in his hands, but of course if Jokic is on the court the ball won’t belong to Russ.
Hot take but I think Russ will be good for Denver. But he’s not enough on his own. They need to make some moves before February.
Won't get much, since they gave a max deal to Murray to $208M. Denver's stupidity.
If jokic knows what's good for his team he will NOT give up playmaking completely to westbrook..
I dont people realize that the Celtics are going to buzzsaw their way to a repeat. Just head and shoulders the best team in the league and its not even kinda close
LeBron turned the nba into a circus
Bullshit
Why are u worried about a 55th pick? Do u know the 55th pick from last year?
Isaiah Wong - Miami Hurricanes lol
They want him to fail because he is lebron's son
As long as Lebronze is nowhere nearby, I don't care who wins.
Suns 2024-25 nba Champions, dbook fmvp 🗣️💯🔥
Even if Westbrook had more - I don't think he'd be allowed to outshine LJ . Got a feeling he going on a Terror this season - LAL vs DEN will be wild
Lmao Westbrook is dirt
Averaged 13ppg on 42% fg last season against the lakers. I bet they’re shaking in fear 🥶
3 players from that Super Celtics Team won USA the 2024 Olympics Gold Medal...& Brown almost qualified also in that US team if not for some circumstances.
I’d say that only Jrue had a huge impact on that USA team. Still, the Celtics have the most stacked roster in the league right now
@@Robss_ yeah, the eastern teams needs to do something against them
You know I'm a massive fan of yours, but I think you're trippin when you said the Warriors did "virtually nothing and made NO off-season acquisitions." Given how inconsistent and defensively nonexistent Klay has been the last 2+ years, I truly believe losing Klay but adding Buddy Hield, Melton, and SloMo could be an UPGRADE. Buddy could run a blitzkrieg of 3s with Steph's gravity, and Melton and Anderson are unequivocal upgrades on the defensive end, something the Dubs have desperately needed... i think they'll make the playoffs and nobody will want to catch them in the first round -- unless Steph gets injured or Donkey Dipshit murders someone...
The looming tip
Where's the projected 3-peat in the In Season Tournament?
I wonder will you keep the same energy if the Lakers don’t win will you clown whoever wins or is it just a Lebron thing ?

There’s nothing to make lol

OKC>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>Minesota
Edwards will lose in 1st round. Only OKC, Dallas and Denver (in that order) can get to the finals and beat the Celtics (or the Knicks).
My vote for most delusional fanbase goes to OKC, yall lost 3 times to the frikin Lakers last season, 3 OUT OF 4 GAMES😂Western Conference Finals next season: Wolves 4 - 0 OKC
@@BeerAndJointsAllDay They were bad against teams with good centers (Lively/Gafford killed them in the 2nd round), maybe with Hartestein they can improve on that.
I would prefer a Luka's revenge in the finals against Boston, but OKC has improved a lot his roaster and maybe they're favourites in the west. The Wolves won't be good this season, or at least, not as good.
@@AverageGuy28 how? Literally HOW?? Wolves have just as good defense as last year but like 3 times better offense, I can't see them winning less than 60 games if they are healthy
@@BeerAndJointsAllDay I'm not a fan of KAT, but I think they will miss him. Randle and Gobert are unplayable together. And Edwards has earned a lot of hate by talking shit and I bet many players are willing to beat him, and they will do.
@@AverageGuy28 Randle played next to Mitchell Robinson for 5 years in New York, I really don't see your point here. Robinson is like half the offensive player Gobert is and that's saying a lot! Averaged just 5.6pts on 56% shooting last season, for comparison Gobert averaged 14pts on 66% shooting last season.
KAT and Ant were the reason the Wolves lost in the conference finals last season, but especially KAT with his 37% for 2 and 24 YES 24% from 3!
Why is #lejohnsonandjohnson in that frame Skap!? Let his ass drift to the side bro.....#webeendonewitlebron
Thinking the Nuggets bench is somehow worse off with Westbrook than Reggie Jackson is laughable
Well, Westbrook is the worst point guard in history. And he said he's the leader the Nuggets team. He really is franchise poison.
@penkima4923 he's not worst pg in history he's also been to conference finals , finals help Washington get to the playoffs not last year but first year with clippers in 5 games playoffs without kawi and pg he average 25 ppg also now as a bench player he's been a positive clippers as a whole was trash so he of course looked bad last playoffs but Reggie average 1-2 ppg last playoffs and energy was so bad Murray got 0 rest
@@penkima4923 Yep, the top 50 player OAT who averaged a triple double for multiple seasons, has multiple scoring and assist champs, and an MVP is definitely the worst PG in NBA history
@@calebvanberkom5571 "averaged a triple double for multiple seasons"
After he realized he's too selfish to be a team player and go for a chip, he decided to concentrate on stat-padding, fighting his own teammates for rebounds and other stats.
"has multiple scoring and assist champs, and an MVP"
At the expense of being an awful teammate, and being both the worst 3-point shooter and ball-handler in history. And he's pretending to be a point guard.
"definitely the worst PG in NBA history"
He insists on playing outside the arc, and even though fans are literally chanting "Don't shoot the three!" at him, he keeps jacking up air-balls and bricks. To the extent of being called Westbrick, now. He can't shoot from his own playing position on the floor.
He already passed Karl Malone as the 2nd most turnover-prone player in history, even though he's played 3 seasons less. And he's supposed to handle the ball.
He's extremely selfish, padding stats, and hogging the ball in the clutch to take awful shots and make bad decisions.
Yes. Worst PG in NBA history.
Great video skap , I did a prediction video for this season if you wanna check it out
Who knows Skap. Maybe you will actually give the Celtics credit this year and not be a shill
I got Kings vs OKC western conference finals.....ya laugh now
In the play-in, Fox decided that it was a good idea to toss up twice the 3-pointers than in the regular season, shooting 25 %. And Sabonis has been consistently horrible in the post-season. I'm not laughing, because they've been a sad team.
Big fan of the Sacramento Kings from Mexico City here (my only another team than the Denver Broncos)...
Come cry with me 🤣
Don’t forget Sabonis choked against the Warriors by being a shooting liability and getting destroyed on the boards by Kevon Looney.
Cease video thumbnail wonders how he's going to find a way to s*** on LeBron James in this one
hit play LOL
The 🗑 is a go again!
Pacers champions
Skap prognostications are "complete crap!". Celtics gonna spank the league again. Bet on it.
Bronny making rookie 3rd team
OKC wins championship next year.
Mavs win it after that
Wemby makes finals year after that

Its boring if the same team wins every year😂 this is why fans opinions are irrelevant
@@knownasking7607it’s actually the opposite, having a different team win every year is corny and takes away from the mystique of winning a championship. If you look at the history of the NBA the league always does better when they have 2 or 3 teams dominating an era, the 70s had parity and the league was on life support until Bird and Magic came and dominated the 80s.
@@jaydot4956 bro said its corny🤣 Everyone hated when KD joined the warriors you know why??? Because they knew the Warriors were going to dominate the NBA for years and ruin the Cleveland/GS rivarly
@@knownasking7607 people say they hated it but the ratings was high in the 2010s when Lebron and Steph were dominating. NBA fans don’t really like parity or too much parity anyway. If a different team wins every year it takes away from the mystique of winning, it goes from being an exclusive club to everyone being able to join the club.
Denver will come back on a vengeance run
