Celtics have been dominant this season I think they are that good
Let’s see if they can win the East though. I have my doubts

Not win the East meaning #1 seed but win in the playoffs and go to the Finals

Their neighbors the Boston Bruins know a thing or two about dominating all season and getting wrecked in the playoffs. They had the best regular season ever and let an 8th seed knock em put 1st round 🙄

There's always a real issue of a team hitting their stride and peaking too soon. We see it every season.

Interesting, the team that beat them is currently #1 in the league and were a #1 seed the year prior 🤔
You can pretend the Panthers were a real 8th seed, but they are obviously a top #1-2 team in the conference for 3 years running....it's ok to lose to that level of oppenent
No excuses for getting eliminated round 1, but the Panthers were an 8th seed just like the Heat......fake 8th seed
It's not like you've cared about hockey over recent years....ofc, other than checking on how the Bruins are doing :rofl:

Celtics didn't hit their stride or peak to soon because they're doing it now. Stats post all-star are just absurd.
This current stretch is the biggest test of their season and they are clearly locked in.
Expecting them to stay at this level until the Bucks game 3/20. After that, they can go ahead and just get everyone fresh.

Oh, you're legit defending the biggest choke in NHL history right now rofl.

It's like the 2015-16 (73 win) Warriors losing in the first round 😂

But whatever helps you sleep at night :rolleyes:

3rd line for you man. "No excuses for getting eliminated round 1"
I'm just trying to help people like you understand that the "8th seed" was actually a fantastic team for 3+years now
If you get a better laugh at the Bruins/Bucks looking at the Panthers/Heat as just another 8th seed that a #1 choked to, well, about what I expect 🤣

I know that with Embiid out, you have absolutely nothing to look forward to other than the Celtics, so enjoy the ride. There's plenty of room.

Still out here defending the greatest choke in NHL history and arguably in sports, ever. Damn, you're committed.

Celtics not winning it all after this season success would be on the same level too. No pressure, but it's championship or bust at this point.

:wallbash:

It has been championship or bust and they are 0-2
They might finally be ready
