One of the most clutch buckets from Brown
-
Remember when they was saying how the Celtics fold in clutch moment now once we do well there no credit at all
-
They acting like Boston supposed to blow everyone out by 40
-
If our offense is awful scoring 133 points Iâd love to see how many weâd score if weâre playing great offense đ€Łâïžâïž
-
Brown made a clutch shot
-
Austin Rivers doesnât trust the Celtics and says they have not played a good game yetâŠâŠ But the Celtics are 9-2 in the playoffs and most of it without Porzingis who makes our offense almost unstoppable. Only person in the media that have given the Celtics props has been Rachel Nichols.
-
Please start giving Haliburton the Harden treatment. That stepback is a 5 way flight type of travel
-
Pacers lost the series in Game 1. You donât get a game like that backâŠ.
-
The hate for the Celtics has gotten so corny at this point. Why is Stephen A acting like the Celtics have so many holes in their game? They went 64-18 this year and won the east by 14 games. Pacers played really well last night, and the Celtics had an average game at best and still won
-
The criticism against the celtics is crazy this year, and they are 9-2 in this playoffs actually
-
Stephen A hating on Tatum and the Celtivs even after that big win, but will praise Edwards and call him the next MJ after shooting a horrendous 6/24 from the field in an elimination Game 7 LUL That's how you know these ESPN bums really hate Boston. Perkins is not even here but the aroma of hate is already strong
-
ESPN trying so hard not to give the Celtics any credit for this win. The Celtics have lost ONLY 20 games this entire season. The way they talk is like they blow 30 point leads every night and lose. They just had 6 days of rest, obviously a little rusty, but after a game like last night, they have all momentum on their side in game 2.
-
Nobody is talking about how they are still missing Porzingis who unlocks there offense Celtics in 5
-
Iâm tired of the Media talking about the Celtics home court on the playoffs over the past 3 years. We are a different team. We wonât have Smart or Rob Williams anymore. We have Holiday and Porzingis. We are 5-2 at home this year! 9-2 overall in the playoffs. This year.
-
Just say y'all actively root for the Cs the lose. The hate is crazy, media puts unreasonable expectations, Cs meet them and then they move the goal post. Literally outscored the best offense, Stephen A "There offense is awful." Cs havent blown a bunch of leads this year, just factually incorrect.
-
Man just said the Celtics offense was awful against the number 1 offensive team in the nba , and still won âŠ.. I want someone to actually deep what Stephen A JUST SAID
-
Boston scored how much? Didnât they score MORE than that prolific Pacer offense? How is that awful offense the best scoring offense ever, beating the Pacers playing at Indyâs pace? Yâall discredited Boston way more than you did the Pacers, and the Celtics beat the Pacers playing Pacer ball. Your hate is ridiculous.
-
Celtics win by 20: they havenât been tested by a good team. Canât say theyâre legit Celtics grind out a clutch win: why is it so close? Why arenât you blowing them out? Celtics lose their 1 game every 2 weeks: they suck and they will lose the finals The media is getting caught up in their predictable narrative
-
ESPN has become pro lakers and anti Celtics
-
ESPN: Celtics don't win clutch time minutes. Also ESPN: Celtics have no business letting this be a close game.
