Boston’s depth is not the best, but they vastly improved in that regard this offseason. Marcus Smart is a top five defender in the league who can even guard centers at times. Daniel Theis has the ability to stretch the floor but mostly plays inside out. His defense and rebounding are key to this team’s success. Jeff Teague and TT were excellent veteran pickups that can help capable young players like Payton Pritchard and Robert Williams become even better. As Brad Wanamaker was their backup PG behind Kemba, Boston now has Teague to not only fill in for Kemba while he’s out, but upgrade the playmaking of the team overall as one of the more unselfish guards in the league. TT had his best season as a pro last year and was arguably the Cavs’ best player at times. Grant Williams is so slept on as a defender on the perimeter and in the post and played key minutes for Boston in the bubble. Semi Ojeleye’s strength, defense and shooting allows Brad Stevens to run drive and kick plays for the team. Romeo Langford, Carsen Edwards and Tacko Fall didn’t really see that much time on the floor last season, but they are still very young and have plenty of time to come into their own. Overall, the Celtics are a top 5 team in the East and in terms of the playoffs and barring injury, I think they can go right back to the ECF like they were last year. With Tatum and Brown leading this franchise, they may even shock the world and make the finals.
Great points. All those guys are so damn underrated. Marcus Smart has the most respect out of all of them, but think about how little attention Theis and Williams get for how good they are defensively and how well they fit in the system.
If the Celtics keep performing as well as they have been thus far, I believe they can go all the way to the finals and potentially bring home another title to the Boston franchise. With the way JT and JB have been playing, another Celtics title could be achievable. Keep in mind the Celtics have only played 10 games thus far - a small census - meaning trends and patterns cannot be accurately established yet.
personally, i don’t think this is the year, i could be proven wrong, i just don’t see kemba helping in dire situations, which i hate to say cause i really like kemba, but in the playoffs he is a bit of a known choker, for example the toronto series last year, if pritchard develops tho, which i think will the celtics basically have a better lowry, which imo would push them over the hump and they’d win
Kemba isn’t a known choker. He got shut down in the Toronto series because he was lighting them up from mid range and Nurse changed the entire defense to slow him down while he was dealing with a knee injury.
@@randomcoffeetable777 that’s true, but he didn’t play well in miami either, nor did he play great in the playoffs with the hornets, but they do need a better playmaker at pg at least
@@ryankirkwood3451 he was injured the whole playoffs and played on a bad knee and still averaged 20/5/4...this year JB passed him as 2nd option and will take a lot off him...he's one of the best 3rd options in league no doubt
I 100% agree brown and Tatum are loving Kemba not being here they both get to show their full potential. The signings of Tristan Thompson was needed. Love your vids Dflow :)
They’re not loving Kemba not being there but they are keeping the celtics at the top of the east without him and proving they’re a top 3 NBA Duo. And I’m So happy you enjoy the content, thanks for the complement 🤛🏻🙏🏻🏀🔥

@@zoomzoom3839 maybe idk I’d like to see it but if that did happen they’d have to start Teague or smart which would put be a bad thing. It would be interesting
@@bryce4632 well I’m not a huge fan of the double bigs lineup so I guess Kemba Walker will be a starter so when Kemba Walker comes back healthy, I hope that there starting lineup would be PG Kemba Walker SG Marcus Smart SF Jaylen Brown PF Jayson Tatum C Tristan Thompson And the Celtics have a lot of backcourt depth they have Jeff Teague, Peyton Pritchard, Javonte Green, Aaron Nesmith, Romeo Langford they have all these guards and Brad Stevens seems to be willing to give all of them playing time.
And he loves to see JB/JT shine, he has no problem letting them do their thing if it means they win...hes been on sidelines all year basically being a coach bringing energy on bench cant wait to see them at full strength
@Boston Celtics Payton Dynamite Pritchard Stats aren’t the only thing, but the team loves Kemba. You seen him on the bench lately, he’s been an assistant coach almost. Pritchard isn’t as good as Kemba yet though. Not close.
B smooth is a troll lol he doesn’t know or understand basketball for example he recently said in a video that JAMAL MURRAY BETTER THAN KLAY THOMPSON... his basketball knowledge card has been revoked and is now a certified troll.
That dude has the absolute WORST takes. Contradicting and little facts to support his case. I love commenting on his content just to expose his weak opinions. Having said that, this team is not a finals contender, 2nd rd exit. There's no cure for a weak link in Kemba defense, marcus wins just as many games he'll lose for his "I'm a scorer mentality. He gets a pass by most fans bc of his effort. Dive for lose balls and taking charges excuses 4-6 terrible shots a game. If your take is relying on semi to consistently hit 3s and the big men rotation that still can't match up with bam or Giannis, well.....goodluck! Yes, it's better than last year but it's not gonna be the difference. Last year the bubble saved them from traveling to Toronto and saw the bucks get upset, that wont be the case this year. Add in the nets and other surprising teams, the east isn't a cupcake walk anymore. Can a team like atl, cha, or even nyk beat Boston? Not likely but if Toronto extending the series to 7 showed anything it's that it took its toll on the team that's short handed depth wise. Maintaining large leads is still an issue. Bad opps I mean Brad still can't manage rotations or draw anything up better than iso ball in the final seconds for jt. Jayson 2soft Tatum still lack aggressiveness when taking it to the hoop and the result is a lack of fts that helps winning playoff games. Jb continues to get the red headed stepchild treatment, when he in fact is the true star of the team. Pp11 aka alfredo is a decent role player, TT is a nice vet but I just don't see it. This team needs a drastic makeover and it starts with a new coach and getting rid of Kemba and smart. I don't see a finals appearance in at least 3yrs bc with no cap space till Kemba off the books they're limited and I don't see Danny trading pennies on the dollar (Kemba for 2-3 role players).
@@jonathanoka7866 honestly bro, you sound like B smooth, especially with that Raptors part of your argument where you talk about last year when they were a top consistent team compared to now. As for Hornets and ATL, who knows? Nets, I mean there is no telling how long the Kyrie drama last and somehow they are getting exposed and looking less scary ever since that Wizards with Kyrie. Its not a cake walk but Celtics are no push over. Stop that 3rd quarter bad luck thing we got going on and we'll be dominate. Wouldve been undefeated if it wasn't for the 3rd quarters. That'll probably destroy us in the long run but not right now. Right now I'm riding the improvement train for my team and It seems like you aren't one of the people who believe is general improvement on players but instead "adding another star." If Semi had improved this season so far it seems, ride it out, if Robert has right it out. If we beat the Bucks and Heat with Theis, and Thompson ride it out. If Pritchard is the still of the draft. ride. it. out. JB and JT looking pretty consistent so thats probably here to stay. Plus Kemba's defense doesn't matter, most PGs have none anyway, as long as he's scoring its okay. Also Smart barely has taken shots this year but instead is focusing on defense and playmaking, I like when he scores but the man gets that Curry mentality out of nowhere and is way too inconsistent with it
just found this channel and you got some good content. For me I feel like casual nba fans forget that Tatum and Brown aren't 25. They are nowhere near their prime which is scary. I think people see the upper class teams of the east as Brooklyn and Milwaukee, but the C's can be there too as your video shows. Finally, I think people sometimes fail to realize how great a defensive tandem the J's are. Tatum is an elite off ball defender and Brown is an elite on ball defender, which is really crucial to our team defense.
As a celtics fan I had low expectations going into this year but brown and Tatum's continued development has gotten me extremely hyped for the playoffs this year. As long as kemba can comeback and play at 70% and the rest of our role players remain solid, I think we could make it to the finals, I dont think we're ready to win yet but whoever we go against I think it will be competitive and very fun to watch
@@dflowhoops rob William's has been off the charts as a backup center, and Thompson when he and theis arent on the floor together is a great piece. With semi hitting threes consistently now and Pritchard doing what hes doing, our bench looks the best it has in years

I may also do a separate video on chris boucher if he keeps this up and contributing to the wins. Keep the suggestions coming bro, appreciate you
We are going to see another Celtics vs Lakers in the finals again soon. After that ECF last year and how they improve their roster, they look ready to reach the finals to me.
I loved their series back in 2010, it was one of the first series I’ve watched start to finish as an NBA fan, so it’d be insane to see it again! Thanks as always Marcos
And the Jays are only 22&24. Then we have FastPP, Williams x2, Nesmith, Langford, Ojeleye, and Javonte all under 25. Also Tacko is there. Jaylen Brown is gonna run for President some day. Super intelligent guy
And they still have the massive trade exemption. Where they have a lot of money so they can just buy tile players without having to trade anything for them. And it must be used b4 the deadline! I’m just exiting to see what geniuses Brad Steven does this time
I predicted the raptors were built for the finals in March of 2019 and I know it’s earlier in the season but I definitely have a similar feeling about the 2021 Celtics!
@@dflowhoops I like our bench pieces especially ojeleye Pritchard and timelord. Grant has his moments. Teague has been ok. I like Jacobite green as an extra defender. I think that this team can compete with the bucks sixers nets heat in a 7 game series and win. I do think the team that wins the finals will be from the west though
The only thing that’s been stopping us from winning it all is a goo big man and a little bench depth we wouldn’t dominated Miami if we had a goo big man that can atleast guard bam
As much as I would love for the Celtics to be a title contender this season, they need an answer for the Jokic, Anthony Davis and Bam Adebayos of the world. I dont think we have that as of right now. I like their chances against anybody in the East, including the new look Nets. It's fortunate they traded away a lot of depth. But Kemba's health will likely the decide the C's ceiling.
This team on paper has everything it needs to win a chip the most important pieces tho are really young. Tatum and Brown gotta step up when it counts together
Stop comparing jt and jb they should start and finish they career in Boston and I promise we’ll have a couple championships with them but I also think tacko should get more mins great overall player and the whole Boston team is elite everybody just needs to play they role and we can dominate the league as usual
tbh i hate saying it, but idk if kemba is the right pg. yes he has the right attitude and leadership abilities, but he is extremely inconsistent in the playoffs, especially when he’s put up against a good defensive pg, (lowry won the matchup by far), so i don’t think this is the year’s personally, but if pritchard keeps developing, which i think he will, he could be a slightly better kemba. as long as pritchard doesn’t allow his ego to get to his head, celtics are champs at least once
He can take charges well on defense and is an elite shot creator. As I said with brown stepping up like he has they’ll be less pressure on Kemba, so I think he’ll be more consistent in the 2021 playoffs
@@dflowhoops hopefully he can be, also depends on the celtics matchups, when he plays guys like lowry, or simmons he isn’t the best, but i want the best for kemba so hopefully i’m wrong
He’s so talented and gets better every year, definitely one of my favourite players right now and I think his progress this year makes the celts a real threat.
Celtics was built for the playoffs if Walker could read playoff defense better & play more catch & shoot, and hold his own on D (last playoffs he was a disaster on D with both bad fundamentals & defensive awareness), Theis, G Williams (he did shoot decently in playoffs) & Ojeleye can make open 3s. I have to discount on Pritchard even though he looks like a poor man's Tyler Herro & showed glimpses of VanFleet, as he will get whipped in playoffs when being targeted on defensive end. Teague is an intriguing player as he seemed to be too casual in reg season yet, he's still effective. If he's playing about 85%-90% of his peak Atlanta days he is actually a better playoff PG than Walker, as he's much more savvy on D & he passes & create opportunities for teammates way better than Walker. He can also catch & shoot, very versatile. The team is not exactly the same as LY as they lost a versatile high IQ player in Hayward so ball movement was hampered as evident in early games. They gained a non outside shooting starter but way better defender of the rim but without shooting & might hv trouble on switching. Overall, he is a way better replacement to Kanter & he should stagger with Theis instead of starting.
Ok this might be a bit too early to assume but jayson Tatum and jaylen brown are the best duo in the nba. They both have a combined 52 plus points per game.
They’ll get a video if they can surpass the Celtics record, but Boston is doing this without their third all star Kemba so I thought they deserved respect!
@@pierceduckworth5678 For a Sixers team beating teams like the Hornets, Cavaleirs, Knicks and the Wizards while being fully healthy isnt that respect worthy and impressive. The only Eastern Conference contending team the Sixers beat were the Raptors and they are the worst team in the league with the Pistons with an 2-8 start
Ur drunk it wasn’t even tatum Who beat the raptors. It was most def Jaylen. He clamped up siakam and then dropped CONSISTENT buckets. Jayson was to busy tryna b fancy n even disappeared on numerous Occasions
Well if the celtics coach do not hang out with Chuck daly for a while to learn how to take care of the referees we are going to have deja vu again and the momentum's going to be killed over and over like last year playoffs against the celtics it was so obvious that sometimes they will call crap in favor of the celtics just to easy the shame on themselves one clear example was that winning shot from preacher following smart miss but a miracle it did not went to OT because of the rookie but why smart miss that shot if bumbing me while shooting the ball it's not a foul and making smart miss that shot what is a foul do it's just warming up I already see so many plays of lebron running over and pushing with clear offenses fouls but instead getting the benefit it's a sign of what the celtics are facing again if the organization do not file a complain against the referees they are going to sucumb even if they make it to the finals remember they brought miami to the finals you know bigger state more money anyways but the celtics organization should step up if you want to replay how many times in each playoff game last year Tatum and the German player the not get the calls on a tree point chance conversion after being fouled and making two points is insane you put together those points at the end of each game the celtics will have a easy win but if they don't claim and remain pussy about it is deja vu again
THIS IS DUMB xD . WE ALL KNOW THAT SMALL BALL WONT WORK ON LEBRON. this happened on ATLANTA HAWKS when kyle korver , schrooder ,millsap, horford, team up dont forget about that. Maybe they are good at offense (boston) what happened if they are against defensive team like Lakers that got a offensive and defensive same as 76sers they are strong defensively and offensively I am 100% sure boston cant beat 76sers. maybe there is a little bit of chance if tatum starting to be like KD or Kobe or Jordan that can score 3's in weird ways.
Celtics have no inside presence really they get better at defending post they’ll have a chance they got everything else. But it’s still #Lakeshow Brrrrrrrrrrr
smarts a problem too many shots IMO. trade kemba and smart for ?.....something that makes celtics better cause right now they a bunch of shoot first peeps and I have to get my shots peeps. The exception would be brown who BTW is the best player on the celtics. One more BTW hayward is kicking ass in Charlotte - but you know marcus smart sould shoot more cause he's the heart and soul of the celtics.

I’m a Boston fan but this video is far from the truth. The bench is suspect to say the least already leaning on a rookie Prichard to carry the load. Also our bigs are not up to par.All theee bigs are average at best and have to play certain roles

We are going to see another Celtics vs Lakers in the finals again soon. After that ECF last year and how they improve their roster, they look ready to reach the finals to me.
I loved their series back in 2010, it was one of the first series I’ve watched start to finish as an NBA fan, so it’d be insane to see it again! Thanks as always Marcos
@@dflowhoops thanks for the daily bangers too.
@@marcosmartinez8088 It’s my pleasure
Still a bummer we couldn’t make a Myles Turner deal work. With Thies as a backup I think we’re certainly favorites in the East.
They also have that huge trade exception so a upgrade in that already very good roster is available
I like their roster as it is, but that’s another reason for their strong potential. Great point
Don't want to be that bummer, but I see these videos about the Celtics every year.
Future NBA Champion Team ☘️
Yeah the Celtics are nasty this year.
C - Thompson
PF - Tatum
SF - Brown
SG - Smart
PG - Walker
Bench
C - Williams
PF - Theis
SF - Ojeleye
SG - Pritchard
PG - Teague
And the Jays are only 22&24. Then we have FastPP, Williams x2, Nesmith, Langford, Ojeleye, and Javonte all under 25. Also Tacko is there.
Jaylen Brown is gonna run for President some day. Super intelligent guy
Ive been a celtics fan my whole life, but this video has not aged well. Something terribly wrong and out of sync with them
Yeah, Kemba has not been producing at the consistent level we need, and with Smart out our defensive energy hasn’t been what it needs to be
Really think Romeo will have something to contribute this year
I was thinking I should mention him but I wanted to keep the vid short and sweet
And they still have the massive trade exemption. Where they have a lot of money so they can just buy tile players without having to trade anything for them. And it must be used b4 the deadline! I’m just exiting to see what geniuses Brad Steven does this time
The*
Excited **
I still think they need another forward off the bench but they are well-positioned. They need to stop the double big lineup.
They will make it
I predicted the raptors were built for the finals in March of 2019 and I know it’s earlier in the season but I definitely have a similar feeling about the 2021 Celtics!
@@dflowhoops I like our bench pieces especially ojeleye Pritchard and timelord. Grant has his moments. Teague has been ok. I like Jacobite green as an extra defender. I think that this team can compete with the bucks sixers nets heat in a 7 game series and win. I do think the team that wins the finals will be from the west though
@@owenouimet9602 celtics own the 76ers
@@justinalley3399 correct
I treated it like every day was my last day with a basketball.
I can't put my finger on that sample playing in the background 😕
The only thing that’s been stopping us from winning it all is a goo big man and a little bench depth we wouldn’t dominated Miami if we had a goo big man that can atleast guard bam
As much as I would love for the Celtics to be a title contender this season, they need an answer for the Jokic, Anthony Davis and Bam Adebayos of the world. I dont think we have that as of right now. I like their chances against anybody in the East, including the new look Nets. It's fortunate they traded away a lot of depth. But Kemba's health will likely the decide the C's ceiling.
Air 🔥 Jaylen7!
If you’re not a Celtics fan like I am u know a lot about the Celtics roster and team for sure. U know your stuff for sure. I’ll give u a sub
Thanks for the compliment man, welcome aboard!
This team on paper has everything it needs to win a chip the most important pieces tho are really young. Tatum and Brown gotta step up when it counts together
I believe this is their year. Thanks the world for the comment, great take
@@dflowhoops thanks Dflow and appreciate the love for my team💯
Williams is a young kid that if given the chance could be a start too they are two williams I'm referring the one with the funny hair
Robert Williams is so damn underrated. Great take
Let’s go Cs!!
Pritchard has potential.
Stop comparing jt and jb they should start and finish they career in Boston and I promise we’ll have a couple championships with them but I also think tacko should get more mins great overall player and the whole Boston team is elite everybody just needs to play they role and we can dominate the league as usual
If his side step 3’s can go in on LBJ than sure they can win.
You’re talking about Tatum or Brown?
tbh i hate saying it, but idk if kemba is the right pg. yes he has the right attitude and leadership abilities, but he is extremely inconsistent in the playoffs, especially when he’s put up against a good defensive pg, (lowry won the matchup by far), so i don’t think this is the year’s personally, but if pritchard keeps developing, which i think he will, he could be a slightly better kemba. as long as pritchard doesn’t allow his ego to get to his head, celtics are champs at least once
He can take charges well on defense and is an elite shot creator. As I said with brown stepping up like he has they’ll be less pressure on Kemba, so I think he’ll be more consistent in the 2021 playoffs
Big sleep on kemba check his stats pre bubble this team was really scary
@@dflowhoops hopefully he can be, also depends on the celtics matchups, when he plays guys like lowry, or simmons he isn’t the best, but i want the best for kemba so hopefully i’m wrong
@@malclowe13 i’m not saying they weren’t, but it really does depend on his defensive matchup
Tatum always gets more credit than brown but to me they seem to be about equal
imagine tacko at the championship
I could definitely see that, and I could see a ‘Top 10 Fan Favourites’ video on this channel featuring Tacko on the thumb lol. Just joshing
They need another star or big man and a former star veteran player on the bench
Go celtics
I’m a raptors fan but I have some serious respect for them 🙏🏻
Yes
Celtics jus need to trade for a top 5 pick for Mobley for center or trade for one and they set dawg.
JB is the second coming of the GOAT.
He’s so talented and gets better every year, definitely one of my favourite players right now and I think his progress this year makes the celts a real threat.
Celtics was built for the playoffs if Walker could read playoff defense better & play more catch & shoot, and hold his own on D (last playoffs he was a disaster on D with both bad fundamentals & defensive awareness), Theis, G Williams (he did shoot decently in playoffs) & Ojeleye can make open 3s. I have to discount on Pritchard even though he looks like a poor man's Tyler Herro & showed glimpses of VanFleet, as he will get whipped in playoffs when being targeted on defensive end. Teague is an intriguing player as he seemed to be too casual in reg season yet, he's still effective. If he's playing about 85%-90% of his peak Atlanta days he is actually a better playoff PG than Walker, as he's much more savvy on D & he passes & create opportunities for teammates way better than Walker. He can also catch & shoot, very versatile.
The team is not exactly the same as LY as they lost a versatile high IQ player in Hayward so ball movement was hampered as evident in early games. They gained a non outside shooting starter but way better defender of the rim but without shooting & might hv trouble on switching. Overall, he is a way better replacement to Kanter & he should stagger with Theis instead of starting.
Harden on the nets now so it’s gonna be tough to beat them now but the Celtics can do it
James harden, Kyrie irving, Kevin Durant in the Eastern conference. I dont think so man
that’s a drama team. celtics fans arnt worried about them they are a first round exit if they even make playoffs
Ok this might be a bit too early to assume but jayson Tatum and jaylen brown are the best duo in the nba. They both have a combined 52 plus points per game.
I don’t think you can put them over A.D and Lebron or K.D and Kyrie yet, but they’re getting close. Appreciate the comment bro
This didn’t age well
The main threat to them is the nets
Why Denver nuggets don't play Bol bol
I think it’s just hard for them to find opposing players for him to defend!
Payton is going to be our derek fisher. Watch.
that’s a really interesting comparison. Pritchard has a lot to do to live up to that but I like the bold take
GOT TO SAY THIS,PLEASE LISTEN,PRICHARD PLAYS SO MUCH LIKE RICHARD HAMILTON AND RAY ALLEN. HE MOVES LIKE THEM. HE REALLY DOES IM TELLING YA
Dflow Hoops Pllease help for the rest of the Celtics team that they have a covid
i wish I could my guy
I think we still a year away from winning the whole thing in my opinion
You’re not overhyping them at all. I’ll say they will be the 2nd seed and go 49-23 I think they can make the finals and will make the ECF
Thanks for the response man, it’s greatly appreciated. And that’s a great record prediction for them.
@@dflowhoops np. 👍
Aye pass some love out to Philly once they're the first seed in the east with a 68-4 record okay?
They’ll get a video if they can surpass the Celtics record, but Boston is doing this without their third all star Kemba so I thought they deserved respect!
@@dflowhoops Fine but once the Sixers can play with a starting lineup we'll see who deserves respect
@@pierceduckworth5678 Sixers been playing with their full starting lineup this season except the last 2 games
@@NC-ow2ze And their record was what? 7-2? Best record in the league
@@pierceduckworth5678 For a Sixers team beating teams like the Hornets, Cavaleirs, Knicks and the Wizards while being fully healthy isnt that respect worthy and impressive. The only Eastern Conference contending team the Sixers beat were the Raptors and they are the worst team in the league with the Pistons with an 2-8 start
Get Tim Duncan as a consultant for you big men. You will get the job done.
TURN ME TF UP NEW ENGLAND WE BLEED GREEN BEEETCH 🍀
bro after the harden trade celtics are the second deepest team
and remember we still have 20 mil from the hayward trade
Nets have great offense (duh) but their defense is not good
@@builtdxfferent1131 i 100% agree with that statement
my celties :)
They would have made the finals if the heat didn’t have their lucky fluky run
I don’t think the Heat got lucky, they earned those wins against the Celtics down the stretch. But I think it will be different for the C’s in 2021
Fluke all day.
They really should have traded Hayward for a better starting Center.
We already have tAcko 😜
wouldn’t have been a bad Idea but the Center depth for them is underrated as I mentioned
Well sorry to break to you but now that the nets have been givin steroids the Celtics are going absolutely no where anymore
It’s crazy because jayson Tatum is still 19 years old
He’s 22 😎
Does all of this still apply now? Cause yikes. it hasn’t gone to plan whatsoever
☘️🍀💪🏿
Ur drunk it wasn’t even tatum Who beat the raptors. It was most def Jaylen. He clamped up siakam and then dropped CONSISTENT buckets. Jayson was to busy tryna b fancy n even disappeared on numerous Occasions
Sorry but boston definitely not going to the finals w the nets in the east r you crazy
nets defense is atrocious
Not anymore. Harden on the Nets that's a wrap...
Last playoffs was cooked books... the Miami heat can’t bake a bean in Boston
lakers in 5
Well if the celtics coach do not hang out with Chuck daly for a while to learn how to take care of the referees we are going to have deja vu again and the momentum's going to be killed over and over like last year playoffs against the celtics it was so obvious that sometimes they will call crap in favor of the celtics just to easy the shame on themselves one clear example was that winning shot from preacher following smart miss but a miracle it did not went to OT because of the rookie but why smart miss that shot if bumbing me while shooting the ball it's not a foul and making smart miss that shot what is a foul do it's just warming up I already see so many plays of lebron running over and pushing with clear offenses fouls but instead getting the benefit it's a sign of what the celtics are facing again if the organization do not file a complain against the referees they are going to sucumb even if they make it to the finals remember they brought miami to the finals you know bigger state more money anyways but the celtics organization should step up if you want to replay how many times in each playoff game last year Tatum and the German player the not get the calls on a tree point chance conversion after being fouled and making two points is insane you put together those points at the end of each game the celtics will have a easy win but if they don't claim and remain pussy about it is deja vu again
appreciate the comment 🔥😎🙏🏻👀
This aged horribly
I hear all that but lately celtics being screwed from games in playoffs
I think they have a real shot this year man, don’t give up on them!
@@dflowhoops as fan im like it hurts
This ended well 8-6 hahahahahahahahaha
THIS IS DUMB xD . WE ALL KNOW THAT SMALL BALL WONT WORK ON LEBRON. this happened on ATLANTA HAWKS when kyle korver , schrooder ,millsap, horford, team up dont forget about that. Maybe they are good at offense (boston) what happened if they are against defensive team like Lakers that got a offensive and defensive same as 76sers they are strong defensively and offensively I am 100% sure boston cant beat 76sers. maybe there is a little bit of chance if tatum starting to be like KD or Kobe or Jordan that can score 3's in weird ways.
Permission to reupload your video❤️
Permission respectfully not granted 😃
👍 thank u. Sorry.
Celtics have no inside presence really they get better at defending post they’ll have a chance they got everything else. But it’s still #Lakeshow Brrrrrrrrrrr
Don’t sleep on Daniel Theis, Robert Williams and Tristan Thompson, 3 big bodies who’re adequate defenders 😃🤛🏻
Bruh we need better bigs to even be considered in the finals Theis is trash Tristan is ehh and Williams is soft like charmin ultra soft
Ik its way too early but Pritchard might be the next Steve Nash
That’s a bit strong but I always like me a bold take 😃🤛🏻🔥
Only an NBA finals chance because they are in the weak Eastern Conference. Celtics would be 6th seed at best in the West
smarts a problem too many shots IMO. trade kemba and smart for ?.....something that makes celtics better cause right now they a bunch of shoot first peeps and I have to get my shots peeps. The exception would be brown who BTW is the best player on the celtics. One more BTW hayward is kicking ass in Charlotte - but you know marcus smart sould shoot more cause he's the heart and soul of the celtics. LOL oh and one other thing - celtics will never win a championship with this sweet polly purebred coach. Oh where, oh where
Has my underdog dog gone?
Oh where, oh where can he be? I think the celtics coach look like sweet polly purebred ???
hawks going to beat yall multiple times this year yall overrated
I am actually a Raptors fan but I feel strongly about how good the Celtics are this year.
yah sure they just got obliterated by The Knicks🤷🏻♂️🤷🏻♂️🤷🏻♂️🤷🏻♂️
And
They will lose in the 2nd round in the playoffs
Lololololol
I’m a Boston fan but this video is far from the truth. The bench is suspect to say the least already leaning on a rookie Prichard to carry the load. Also our bigs are not up to par.All theee bigs are average at best and have to play certain roles
I wasn’t trying to make the point that the bench was amazing. I prefaced by breakdown of the bench by saying that the team relies on star power.
How tho cus Pritchard smart Teague and timelord will help the bench I think we will be fine when kemba get back
