    Celtics defense is incredible. Iโ€™m thinking the best NBA defense since? Maybe the Pistons in 2004? Iโ€™m serious. It might be.

    canโ€™t wait until the pacers are back in the playoffs with a chance to do something. Watching this series makes me realize how much I miss it

      Boston vs Miami in the conference finals is gonna be a dogfight. Looking forward to that.

        Kyrie looked gassed, playing every now and then would do that to you.

          Durant is not a winner. All the natural talent in the world but no killer instinct. Give me Jimmy Butler over Durant all day.

            I can't stand any Boston sports or their fans and it supersedes everything, so of course the first time I root for KD in the playoffs, he doesn't kill like he's supposed to. Go figure
            Larry Bird and Ryan Grigson- wasting the talents of Paul George and Andrew Luck

              14-15 Warriors, 18-19 Raptors were better defensively than the Celtics

                  Can't wait to watch Simmons play after being out all season. If they allow him to play

                      i dont want to jinx it, but this is setting up great for a desperate ben simmons return in which he completely embarrasses himself

                              Now I remember that he is not eating.


                              The guy is going to drag KD and the whole Brooklyn team down with him.

                                Hakeem used to dominate while fasting.

                                Anyway, was asking my currently fasting friend about it the other day, and he said it's so normal for pro athletes, and after his first couple trips to the gym, he gets used to it (he isn't a pro athlete though). He's English, and I hadn't realized how many footballers do it every year.
