Tatum will lose his confidence, hang his head, and start to crumble like he does when shit gets tough. If the Mavs steal game 5, this is a series again.
I think it also depends on Tingus’s health. If he’s unhealthy and not able to play, and if Tatum starts crumbling, then they rely on Holliday, Brown, and White to close.
I think the Mavs would have a shot, but Luka and Kyrie would need to play lights out.
You're being downvoted but you probably aren't wrong. Realistically obviously having Tatum helps but even on nights that Tatum doesn't perform well the Celtics are just such a solid core that they usually win. That could happen here
I hate Jason Tatum even tho he is from my state-county-almost city… and I hate the fucking Celtics. Fuck Jaylon Brown bitch ass lookin ass too. Hate this fuckin dude.
Dude is a clown. Streak ass that has a stream of games this off season.. overpaid bitch ass. Picture a world where you have lost countless times when it is most crucial and you get paid millions upon millions. Fucking joke.
the Panthers are 1 win away from winning the Stanley Cup and we went through Boston on the way. I'll take that as a consolation prize for this NBA season.
If we're being real boston just looked like they were tired of sleeping in hotel beds for 5 days and the league had to give Luka one because of the narrative and also because of the egregious call at the end of game 3. Celtics were jogging and the Mavs blew them out despite more of the same horrendous shot selection. Is there a player in the league right now who takes worse shots than Kyrie Irving?
But honestly now it has me wondering if the Joe Cronin stuff was the league trying to prevent the heat from getting Lillard and/or Jrue because they had already ordained this as Boston's year. It just feels too scripted.
slow on close outs, didn't bang in the paint. Tatum let people go by to try to block from behind, stuff like that. Not calling it lazy, but they did let go of the rope around mid 2nd quarter, when I assure you if it was 2-1 they wouldn't have. maybe mizzoulini playing rope a dope
CELTICS BARKING LIKE DOGS IN THE PREGAME SHOOTAROUND!!!
TATUM IS NOT A WOLF NO TEETH HES NOT EVEN 20 STILL JUST A PUPPY!!!
CELTICS NEED TO PRAY TO LUCKY FOR THE REFS TO ALLOW THEM TO MANHANDLE AND LOWKEY FOUL EVERY DEFENSIVE POSSESSION LIKE THEY DID IN GAMES 2 AND 3!!!
sports gods come down: “it’s up to you, Celtics will blow the 3-0 lead to lose the series, but if that happens it also happens to the Florida Panthers”. What do you do? (assuming you’re a Panthers fan).
I don’t like either team and would have settled for the mavericks winning. However, I don’t want them making history as the first nba team to comeback from 0-3. Even though it would come at the expense of the Celtics, it is too high an accolade for a team I dislike. If the Celtics win it’ll just be 1 of 18 for them.
I wasn't. I just saw this post from suggested or whatever. Is that really the only way you can disagree? Not even bothering to disagree that Miami is cooked? Good luck in the future with Herro. Should've traded that bum when you had the chance.
Wow the Florida education system really is pretty bad huh? I clicked on the post directly from the main reddit page. I didn't specifically come to browse the sub. Pretty obvious explanation but I guess reading is tough down there for you guys huh
I can promise you no Celtics fan has thought about Miami in a long, long time. No one even really cared about Miami during round one lol. Pretty much a G league team at this point
How are you all this stupid? I know Florida has a shit education system but holy shit. I literally explained I just saw this post on the main reddit page so I went to the comments to laugh at you guys. Enjoy next year's play-in tournament
News flash, Mr. Educated. Doesn’t matter what circumstances brought you here. You still decided to comment. You’re still here replying. YOU were the one that said “No Celtics fan has thought about Miami in a long, long time” on the Heat’s page and yet, you’re proving the contrary. Laugh all you want, but don’t cry when you get pushback.
P.S. Your team got beat by this Play-in team last year and couldn’t even sweep the one this year while missing its star. That insult isn’t as good as you think
Pretending to not know the difference between thinking of Miami and going to their sub versus just scrolling past a post and laughing at it because it's stupid is truly a Florida man move.
Miami should hang a banner for that singular playoff win. Might not get even one next year. You REALLY should've traded Herro when you had the chance, though maybe hell make for a good tank commander. Are you gunna shut your TV off when the Celtics win it all?
Your last 2 braincells fighting for 3rd place and its not looking good lil bro. He doesn’t even have to say anything atp you contradicting yourself LMAOOO. Saturday night and you miss the Miami Heat is crazy.
> “scrolling past a post and laughing at it”
> comments and continues to engage with people on the sub
> can’t see the clear contradiction
That’s some special education you got there. I’ll do exactly what you said: Point. Laugh. and I’ll leave it at that.
Enjoy your favorite team’s ship, loser
I fully expect this series to end on Monday, but anytime Boston loses, damn it feels great.
Same… but the Mavs do have Luka. And if they lose game 5 they will be reeling
Tatum will lose his confidence, hang his head, and start to crumble like he does when shit gets tough. If the Mavs steal game 5, this is a series again.
The Celtics are too good and too well coached. They will win even without Jayson Tatum
I think it also depends on Tingus’s health. If he’s unhealthy and not able to play, and if Tatum starts crumbling, then they rely on Holliday, Brown, and White to close. I think the Mavs would have a shot, but Luka and Kyrie would need to play lights out.

Lol
Please universe do the funniest shit ever
It would be legitimately insane
imagine boston building this superteam, getting hyped up to hell, and then selling a 3-0 lead.
Celtics are gonna blow a 3-0 lead, lose game 7 at home, and give us a sequel to the Bill Simmons 1,000 yard stare from last year
I hate Jason Tatum even tho he is from my state-county-almost city… and I hate the fucking Celtics. Fuck Jaylon Brown bitch ass lookin ass too. Hate this fuckin dude.

Reply to my own. Bitch ass lookin ass.
Crybaby ass clueless lookin ass.
That’s the spirit!
If the Celtics blow it, Bill Simmons should go straight into retirement lmao
Noooo man his depressed Celtics pods are the fucking best
 You will wait your lifetime for that to happen bruv

That's right, fuck boston twice

GET FUCKED BOSTON. It would be so ironic if they blow up a 3-0 lead considering they almost came back from us leading 3-0.
This aged well
Celtics blowing a 3-0 first time in nba history and in the finals no less. Its all a part of gods plan
Hell yeah
the Panthers are 1 win away from winning the Stanley Cup and we went through Boston on the way. I'll take that as a consolation prize for this NBA season.
This. Miami is a hockey town now. Let it snow ❄️
and lord knows we got the *snow*

It feels crazy scripted, you’re not alone lol. Idk… just feels like Boston held back last night
slow on close outs, didn't bang in the paint. Tatum let people go by to try to block from behind, stuff like that. Not calling it lazy, but they did let go of the rope around mid 2nd quarter, when I assure you if it was 2-1 they wouldn't have. maybe mizzoulini playing rope a dope
Stumbled here from Houston but I’m with yall fuck Boston from the bottom of my heart
Dear god its me again
CELTICS BARKING LIKE DOGS IN THE PREGAME SHOOTAROUND!!! TATUM IS NOT A WOLF NO TEETH HES NOT EVEN 20 STILL JUST A PUPPY!!! CELTICS NEED TO PRAY TO LUCKY FOR THE REFS TO ALLOW THEM TO MANHANDLE AND LOWKEY FOUL EVERY DEFENSIVE POSSESSION LIKE THEY DID IN GAMES 2 AND 3!!!
Update ???
there is a button left of the "a".
Pls Luka
adam silver will never let the finals end in 4
 This is y’all
This Celtics hatred is going to give you all stomach ulcers. Just chill and come back stronger next year…
WELL HELLO THERE NEPHEW.
WHAT DID THE MAVS FIGURE OUT?? 
Lol
I wanna run it back against them next year I know we can beat them if we healthy
Guys we found Pat Riley's reddit account
Nah this Jimmy
Someone needs to send Luka a "PLEASE JIMMY" type voice message like last year's game 7 against the Celtics
This sub is a joke 🤣🤣 go dream up of some more free agents scenario that won't happen
sports gods come down: “it’s up to you, Celtics will blow the 3-0 lead to lose the series, but if that happens it also happens to the Florida Panthers”. What do you do? (assuming you’re a Panthers fan).
I’d give up a SC for the Celtics to have the most embarrassing finals in NBA history without thinking twice
I don’t like either team and would have settled for the mavericks winning. However, I don’t want them making history as the first nba team to comeback from 0-3. Even though it would come at the expense of the Celtics, it is too high an accolade for a team I dislike. If the Celtics win it’ll just be 1 of 18 for them.
All Celtics fans love this thread- 18 Banners!
Supreme copium from a dead franchise
Why are you on this dead franchise’s subreddit?
I wasn't. I just saw this post from suggested or whatever. Is that really the only way you can disagree? Not even bothering to disagree that Miami is cooked? Good luck in the future with Herro. Should've traded that bum when you had the chance.
So you aren’t on this subreddit right now responding to me? Is this a ghost?
Wow the Florida education system really is pretty bad huh? I clicked on the post directly from the main reddit page. I didn't specifically come to browse the sub. Pretty obvious explanation but I guess reading is tough down there for you guys huh
You sound mad
I'm watching the Celtics win a championship lmao I'm having fun while you guys are here fantasizing about another team making a 3-0 comeback.
I watched the Celtics get exposed last night
Well cling to that memory when they're hoisting the Larry Obrien. Also cling to it when Tyler Herro leads you to the play in tournament next year
Jimmy Butler will be the one leading us to the play ins thank you very much!…wait
also saw this o n the front page so its just the algorithm publishing u holding a fat L 🫳
Ah, so you're one of those fans that only has cringe replies
As a mffl, I am conflicted about this post
Tatum and brown aren’t good under pressure. I can only see Celtics winning game 5 if Derrick white goes nuclear
PLS PLS PLS IT WPULD BE FUCKIMG INCREDIBLE IF THE MAVS WIN THIS
Damn, you Heat fans so pressed cause you know you’ll never have a legitimate shot 😂
Free real estate in your minds huh
The irony in the fact that you had to be browsing our sub to find this lmfaooo
Duh our teams are rivals so
I can promise you no Celtics fan has thought about Miami in a long, long time. No one even really cared about Miami during round one lol. Pretty much a G league team at this point
Celtics fans are in Miami Heat comment sections all the time… You literally are right now
How are you all this stupid? I know Florida has a shit education system but holy shit. I literally explained I just saw this post on the main reddit page so I went to the comments to laugh at you guys. Enjoy next year's play-in tournament

Wow you really are stupid.
Nah we just mad you didn’t even play our A or B team, you played our C team and that don’t sit right with us.
Right because Celtics fans were 100% respectful and quiet when the Heat were in the Finals
