Again, then why treat the Celtics like they are failures for coming up short if you yourself view Tatum as nothing and the Celtics as an overrated team? It just doesn't make any sense to me

Do you believe in your opinion or do you believe in your opinion but apply the publics view of the Celtics because it's easier for what you want to hear?

It's impossible to discuss something with someone who doesn't know what they believe in

Pick a side at least


I think some people maybe like Corey have the bar set at winning a championship

I believe the bar is winning a conference final. There are so many great bball players that made the finals and won their conference but didnt reach over the top

Miller
Ewing
Stockton
Iverson

so far i think Butler will fall into this category as well.

So some people put the line at a chip, some people put the line at a conference final, some people dont use that as a measure for greatness

For Embid, the bar is the second round, cray.

and then we rode off into the sunset and never looked back.


agreed completely, just pointing out the hypocrisy of a Raps fan saying the Bucks chip has an asterisk

On paper the Celtics are the most talented team in the league right now, if any team is a super team it's them 100%

They have how many All-Stars or former All-Stars still playing high quality basketball? I count Tatum, Brown, KP, Holiday, and I would personally include White as a Manu type All-Star caliber player coming off the bench (Manu only made 2x All-Star games, White will probably be similar)

That's a loaded team that should rightfully have expectations to win

First team in the semifinals.

Knicks and Pacers are likely to go to 7 games.
I suppose this give the Celtics enough rest for the ECF.
