[Gyasi85]

It took Wade 1 game to make Rose & Noah Irrelevant in Chicago

Once Fred has the balls to close games out with Valentine over Rondo

They better pray Jaylen and those remaining picks pan out in the future.

There's always the outside chance that Horford mans up, gets in the paint and plays the physical style of basketball that you need to be successful in the playoffs

Spoiler

Not a chance in hell

why are people talkin like we expect the C's to be contenders this year? I said all summer that Ainge needed to do more.

 

[jaguar paw]

Not even Tommy Heinsohn thinks this team with this core is gonna win anything, it is what it is.

If I got Tommy drunk he would say title lock on air.

I told you. They can be better than y'all think. Just need some tweaking with the line ups.

wade ignoring rondo, every time he got close he moved away. gonna be trouble later in the season

What trouble?

Rondo isn't really anything to worry about and only this season is guaranteed from what I remember. He starts acting up and causing chemistry problems just let his ass rot on the bench. He can't hide behind that Boston success anymore, dude is barely a legit starting PG in today's NBA.

Those people were wrong. This is a solid team. Well coached. Some nice players.. nothing more.

Breh the consensus is that y'all are top 2-3 at minimum. Don't cop excuses now breh breh

 

[Green Ranger]

Wade made only 7 3s all regular season last year and he made 4 tonight

nikkas are projecting shyt that we aren't even saying.

Can this team win 50+ games and possibly get a 2 seed? Sure. I've yet to see any person in the Celtics fanbase who thinks this is a championship core. Only the absolute biggest, and I mean biggest homers think this team can actually hang with Cleveland.
