Perkins on the bench and 08 boston is a better defensive team with the best shooter (Ray) defensive player (KG) and Clutch Killer (Pierce) yeah i got them

KG - KP
Posey - Tatum
Pierce - Brown
Ray - Jrue
Rondo - Holiday

How is that the same logic? :what:
Since the Hawks pushed the Celtics further than the Lakers did in the Finals, by this logic, the Hawks are better than the Lakers and the 2024 Celtics would have ZERO issues with that Lakers team since the 37 win Hawks are so inferior…

I dont think so. 2024 Celtics is stacked. Too many 3 point shooters.

KP averaged more points last year than any member of the big 3 in 08.

Are they playing in 08 or 24? Its stupid to compare eras. The game has completely changed from 16 years ago. Multiple members of the 24 celtics shot a higher % from 3 than Ray Allen.

All he said was that they wouldn’t DESTROY the ‘24 Celtics. He didn’t declare a winner by transitive property like you are.

49ers..Braves..Celtics
Get pushed to 7 games by the 37 win Hawks and think you’d destroy the 2024 Celtics brehs. :mjlol:

They didn't take them seriously. Hawks got blown out every game in Boston. When it came down to it, the Celts won every game they needed to and did it convincingly including the 39-point win against the Lakers in game 6

‘24 Celtics in 4

08 Celtics would have no answer for the three. Would just bomb on them for 4 quarters.

You're underestimating KG and Paul Pierce's ability to get opposing players mentally shook. 2024 Celtics would end up looking like the 2018 Rockets and miss a ton of 3s they normally make.

Pierce and KG fake tough they not scaring anyone on that Celtics team. Plus if we going by that metric, ’24 got a psycho of a coach in Coach Mazulla, they’ll be fine.
