[@aesirgaming1014]

I really have no concerns about Milwaukee. We saw how Jrue clamped down on Kyrie...pretty sure he will do the same to Dame. The Celtics will use the same strategy they usually use, which is try to make Giannis work and clamp down on everyone else. Matchup doesn't really favor Milwaukee even with everyone healthy. It will be the same story as Dallas. The Bucks will have the best player, the Celtics will have the best team...and basketball is a team sport.

[@CelticsBirdsUnited97]

There is no team in the East that can beat us as presently constructed. Out West, a team I'm wary of other than the obvious Nuggets threat is OKC especially because we don't have a physical rebounding big man which is their weakness

[@aesirgaming1014]

As a Celtics fan, I think the strength of Boston is its ability to absorb injuries due to having multiple guys. Everyone said "Boston needs KP to win the Finals", but KP was injured for most of the Finals and Boston still won convincingly. This team has so much talent that's spread out across so many players that they can afford an injury and still be a great team. It's also hard to gameplan for Boston. They don't have one clear cut #1 guy that you can home in on (as Boston did to Luka). If you throw everything at Tatum, Brown will go off. If Brown and Tatum are both smothered, then Jrue or KP or even Old Man Al will step up to deliver. Add into that some roleplayers with confidence (how many teams would let a guy in Pritchard's position take a half-court shot like that?) and this is a team that's hard to beat and hard to plan for.

​@Bobbleheads56 yea and I don't think I've heard anyone else say those teams gave up! It's just how bad they are without their "best" player.. and Indiana didn't go down 3-0 and Tyrese got hurt... he got hurt in game 3 if I'm right, then they lost and lost again when he didn't play in game four.. and for anyone saying those teams had given up then I think it's bad they lost a game to 2 different teams with such bad players.

lakers made a conference finals after their title run in 23-24’

[@probablyyourdad]

But they weren't defending champions at that time that was the whole point

[@LifeIsKhaosx2]

Celtics are so good people think they’re road tot he finals were easy ! That’s how good this Celtics team is. they were blowing opponents out on a consistent basis and playing top tier defense people think they’re run is easy because of how good they are

[@8mathdaddy]

Nah. Giannis can punk that whole team.

[@jreturns4756]

Seems to me they built a team like the bulls that nic doesn’t think could have beat any of lebrons competition. Long athletic and play defense where everyone knows their role. Hmm maybe the Bulls would have been ok playing today Nic

[@mr.castle]

​@@8mathdaddy They've been to the finals twice since Giannis was. 😅😂

[@8mathdaddy]

@@mr.castle Giannis was injured.

Nick hates every Boston team except the Cannons. Maybe.

[@JayyMillie]

New guy is pretty chill

[@LikeABoss1211]

Nick gotta stop talking so much

[@GKA11111]

Fr. Second episode straight he let brou talk, then hears Danny say 4 words and jumps in

[@kisswriters]

Boston’s starting five all play defense, at a very high level. Barring injury, Celtics will make a number of championship runs.

[@carlosdcpcg]

Why does the new guy talk like that???

[@TaylorMadeLLT]
