Carlisle won a Championship against Miami with their big 3 with an old Mavs roster full of castoffs. I don't understand this insane rant treating him like he's dogshit
At least the Pacers will force them to actually have to play well to win. Last two series they’ve been able to win without playing their best. Yes they lose when they suck, but average offense and good defense was enough for the injured cavs and Heat. Celtics will have to play closer to their ceiling to get passed the Pacers. That being said, Celtics in 5. Worst case 6.
Felger calling rick carlisle a "penis" is a top 5 moment in all of Boston sports! Well done Felger! But I have to admit, dropping the "B Word" is a bit over dramatic.
This series could go longer than people think. Their up tempo offense takes away some of Celtics defensive advantage. Ultimately Celts should advance to finals but it will be a contested series.
This year has been gift wrapped for the Celtics. They won't have a better shot than now. However, this Pacers team is no joke. I think we got an even bigger break last night with the T wolves upsetting Denver.
Be quiet in the background there, talking about Edward brings people up. How do you know that? What if he just gets to the finals and never wins a championship? You will say the same damn thing that you’re saying about Jayson Tatum. So you can’t say anything about Edwards bringing anyone up. Right now he has just done the same thing Jason Tatum has done. When Tatum did it with Jess Brown. if Edwards does not win a ring, he is literally Jayson Tatum or Jaylen Brown that’s it. Stewart, sometimes you say smart stuff, but that was dumb. It really was. Jayson Tatum’s been in the playoffs. Almost every year. Getting into the finals but sorry he has not won a ring. Oh my God he’s the worst lol please. Seven game series with Golden State in the finals was phenomenal. Just sucks he got injured. I can see the same thing happened to Anthony Edwards for the next five years. Getting so close, but never winning a ring.
