Chris Mannix: Narrative Around Celtics Completely Changes If They Win NBA Title | 5/24/24

[@InvertedFreeSolo]

Well the national media sound like morons for downplaying an overachieving Celtics team for the past six seasons

[@felipeb.9321]

for real

[@curtislinden9297]

thank you, Mannix.

[@JAXTWIN]

This is the same thing the national media did with Deflagate. They don’t know what side to choose. Give credit to the winning team.

[@SuperDunk1000]

I guarantee even when Boston wins it all the media will bring up their “easiest path to the finals in history” and will completely discount this chip

[@felipeb.9321]

and even when they win #18 (not nearly done yet) ... the corporate media losers will start churning out GSW "dynasty" comparisons

[@mrtqtran]

If they win, people will still say, "But...." And come up with some new way to criticize them. Look at cowherd. He said the other day, yeah the C's may win but they are not a dynasty type team.... It's just ridiculous and driven by personal bias.

One silver lining to the 24h news cycle is that narratives go through their entire lifespan much quicker. It’s refreshing to hear the ‘discourse’ around Boston start to turn a corner.

Dan always brings up “everyone played in the bubble” which is such a strawman argument to why the 2020 bubble ring isn’t worth alot. Lebron and AD were both dealing with nagging injuries and had 4 months off to recover. The bubble gave the Lakers a much bigger advantage than everyone else. Without the bubble the Lakers probably wouldn’t have even made the 2nd round with a hobbled AD and LeBron

Literally everyone also had those same 4 months to recover and recoup. I’m a Celtics fan who hates Lebron but cmon man. You can play this little asterisk game with every championship team throughout nba history. At the end of the day a ring is a ring.

[@coryjack606]

@@sixis268 But 4 months to recover obviously helps the older team who’s two stars are injured, more than a team that isn’t injured.

With KP coming back they will win it this year #18 and resign D White i am hoping they will run it back. #19. Then lets see the media carve them up. Then haha 🤣 they will sound like this blah blah blah 😂
