Will This be Considered a Historically Great Celtics Team? | THE ODD COUPLE

[@nserekoraymond8593]

I actually thought that Nuggets would meet Celtics in the NBA finals.

[@blaketindle4703]

Most people did.

[@nysydmark4121]

Nah, they just got demolished by 38 points in game 4. Has anyone seen Tatum? 26.9pts in Regular season, 25.2pts in Playoffs and 20 in Finals???

[@CBrown]

For me, the mark of a truly great championship team is how they look in the seasons surrounding that championship. Are you knocking on the door every year or was it just a case of the perfect circumstances? This team fits the bill. My admittedly unfair hesitation comes from them playing in the Eastern Conference. Its been terrible for like 15 years. Right now its a stacked Celtics team and whatever team manages to overachieve that year. They lost to GSW in a series and they're beating up on a Mavs team thats closer to that "perfect circumstances" run than a real contender. And dont get me wrong, i really like this team. I've been rooting for Jaylen Brown in particular for years to finally get the kind of recognition he's getting this year. I just struggle to want to elevate this team too high given the competition they've faced.

[@capbruhcorn]

The last all time great NBA team was the KD Warriors. Lot of one hit wonders since then. The NBA just feels weak now and these playoffs have revealed that.

[@rlh12345]

The talent is likely greater than ever. Just bc there isn't 1 or 2 stacked teams that win every year doesn't make the league weak.

@@rlh12345 that’s a casual fanboy comment. The league is as weak as its been in a long time. 2 garbage Finals in a row, lame playoffs overall, over hyped players like Luka and Ant, embarassing All Star weekends, etc.

[@greggibson33]

That just went out the window.

[@tradingpost431]

It’s one game, and they put in their subs in the 3rd quarter. Even the best teams have bad games. They will end it in Boston in game 5. It might be a blowout.

[@gkniffen]

​@@tradingpost431C'mon, man. You have a chance to win YOUR FIRST NBA TITLE and you get BENCHED in the third quarter down 30?? That's exactly why I can't Tatum or Brown seriously as NBA "superstars." Larry Bird never laid an egg like that in a closeout game. This Celtics team may hang a banner, but these guys have CONSISTENTLY come up short in big moments. 🤷‍♂️

[@tradingpost431]

@@gkniffen they just had a bad game. Probably let their emotions get to them and got too excited because they know the title is close. Yeah it was a mistake, but stuff like that happens sometimes. Are any of these guys Larry Bird? No. But that’s a pretty high bar. Doesn’t mean they can’t still be great. Especially when you consider the fact that they get better every year.

Boston's road to the Finals was so weak, that I would rank it below the Lakers bubble title in 2020.

[@irvingzeistman9828]

Exactly easiest path to the finals EVER , beat a bunch of injured teams and Luka is out there hobbling on one leg

[@WarPigs413]

I hope the Mavs become the first team to comeback 3-0 in the finals. They won their first game today... 3 more to go!

[@ctlee104]

Think about it like this: for the last 2-3 years, Tatum has been considered a top 5-10 player in the NBA. Jaylen Brown has been just has good as him the entire time, whether people could see it or not. Porzingis is still the unicorn. His concern is injury not skill nor talent. When we look back at this era, when this is all history, these guys will be considered the best players in the NBA of this generation. Think about it. Three generational players of the 2020s all on the same team. What other teams have three generational players all on the same team, GOING INTO THEIR PRIMES. Those are the types of teams this team should be in the conversation with. This could end up as one of the best teams of all time.

[@MoreKINGsLessWARRIORS]

If Boston wants to be a dynasty they got to bring somebody in for KP he's going to get hurt again I hate to say it like that

[@Dtown3thirteen]

Jason did this to himself. Shooting sidestep and contested threes late in the shotclock after dribbling for 8-10 seconds. Shooting highly contested jumpers. JB goes to the hole more, shoots more midrange jumpers, and doesn’t settle for those contested shots. Tatum is good, but he has to go the hole more and shoot more midrange shots.

[@stingrey1571]

the conversation for the first half of this video reminds me of Walter Payton. He was the best all for the Chicago bears. Then in 85, when they won the superbowl. They did it with defense. He was barely a factor. Worse, everyone including the gm scored a touchdown BUT Walter. Reportedly he was pissed. However they did just win a championship.

[@markula_4040]

No considering they are about to win the series in 5 despite being outscored for the whole Finals.

[@NoJustXusOfficial]

Respect. But nobody thought the Mavs would come out the west at the start of the playoffs AND nobody thought they’d beat the Celtics in the finals.

[@andreeldridge8457]

A great example would be Steph Curry. He has 4 rings but only 1 finals MVP. I believe he’s good. JT should be good.

[@thegreatestfinesser2338]

So what Joe Dumars has a Finals MVP Billups has one freaking Iguodala has one (we all know Curry should’ve got dat one) such an overrated award

[@eddiecampbell9663]

​@@thegreatestfinesser2338with billups was different because he was one of the best on the team other that Ben Wallace who were they going give it to

[@Kelvin-k8n]

Iguodala got FMVP for Shutting LeBum down coming off the bench 😂

[@cooljp1531]

Steph was the MVP every time. Who cares about idiots voting. Because of Steph his teammates get to spend 1/2 a game playing 4 on 3 or 4 on 2.. There are no stats for that, but if you watch games and understand basketball it's not hard to see.

[@jasonbecke]

Now I don’t believe it will happen but I would be so happy and I’m hoping Boston blows this lead so these guys and everyone else looks stupid lol just wait until the series over damn

[@millabasset1710]

Paul Pierce is better than Tatum

[@jayesonmack3108]

JT had a great close out game. He didnt win MVP..But he was the best player on the court tonight posting a near 30pt triple double.

[@FrankNitty-kz8dx]

They lost by 50 ...

[@millabasset1710]

If we lose 4 in a row, Tatum and Brown need to go. Great teams don't lose by 30 when up 3-0. Embarrassing.

@user-rv1sy1iv3l YES

[@SuperHenryVa757]

In a word, not even close it shows the nba is in a downturn as far as talent

[@edwardvalencia9873]

Recognize the difference between the Western Conference and the Eastern Conference. In the Eastern conference at the moment.. The most talented team is going to make it through. Which in this case is Boston. So the East at the moment is winning by Talent. But in the West... it's more about matchups since so many teams are good. Denver lost to Minnesota because it was a bad matchup. Minnesota lost to Dallas because of a bad matchup. So the west lends itself to potentially being less talented than the winner out of the east. Because if Denver was in the final, they'd match up better than Dallas. Even Minnesota matches up better to boston than Dallas. Which sounds odd since Minnesota lost to Dallas. But again.. match ups.
