@UpAndComing and @stepbackj34spud...yall boys around the same age as I am....you've seen a lot of quality C's basketball. I know you rep the C's regardless but ain't no way you can condone Joe's philosophy on offense.



There's zero off ball action, zero half court sets, zero creativity... :hhh:

The Celtics offense works because they have one of the most stack teams ever the last few seasons.. Multi allstar caliber players, multiple olympians, multiple high quality role players. It’s shytty offense but when you have so many quality players that can shoot the 3, it works. Doesnt mean it’s right.

I was watching a podcast.. somebody said the Celtics would get smoked by those late 00s-mid 10s championship teams that play with an actual offense.

I forgot he wasn't even playing. Sheesh, this squad is deep. I wouldn't shorten the rotation for the playoffs either. I hate when coaches do that shít, then when their backs are against the wall, all of a sudden, they wanna go 10 deep instead of 8.

And this team is 100% coming out of the West.

The team that seems to consistently play them tough is the Timberwolves.

Doesnt these Celtics hit way more threes than the Warriors?


But yea, losing against warriors with KD is not such a big L. Those warriors would probably smoke any team in the history of the sport

Also weaker and younger celtics.

I’m in no way saying that Celtics are unstoppable, just that losing to prime Warriors does not make you weak

That wasnt prime Warriors. That was arguably the weakest Warriors championship team.

The point im trying to make is, this Celtics team would get smoked by an actual basketball team. 2014 Spurs, 2008 & 2009 Celtics, etc.

That’s not saying much

The warriors teams before 2022 that win chips had an average of over 60 wins.

The 2022 weren’t some scrub team. Their players fit and Steph is Steph. Tough to beat that 4/7 times

Not at home

But I see Pritchard & Hauser no showing in another big game :unimpressed:
Side note: I can’t take this dude Pritchard seriously. Gotta be top 5 all time ugliest motherfukkers I’ve ever seen in the NBA. :mjlol:

This Celtics team with no injuries would completely smoke the 2022 Celtics team with no injuries.

And that Warriors team had 5 all-star players and would’ve probably gone 0.800 if Dray didn’t miss half the season, Klay more than half and Steph 1/4th. We make fun of Poole and Wiggins but they were smoking things that season, which is why the former got that bag.
