    Welcome to my ignore list, not like you provide anything productive when you post anyway. Other than jinxes.
    Your welcome. I am sure it’s a solid list of suspects.

    Enjoy your time out.

    There's no such thing as a 2nd round bust.

    • Looking at the current standing, the only team in the bottom 4 that I feel confident the Celtics would beat are the Pacers. Bucks/Wiz/76ers would all give them a run for their money, in a first round match up.

        Yep and we'd just breeze through those 3 teams no problem.

          The Wiz always scare me because they've got some sort of psychological edge for some reason, we just can't play against them, but I have zero concern about the other two.

              • I can't help but wonder what the Celts would be if Rondo stayed healthy last year. Bounced in the 1st round, and likely a less desirable free agent destination for Hayward, and likely a LOT less hype coming into this season.

                  You say your not a Celtic fan but, so defensive when it comes to them. Always quick to remind us of the raptors flaws though...

                    You can accuse me of being a Celtics fan until the cows come home, it doesn't change the fact that I fucking hate them like anyone else here does.

                    However just because I hate them doesn't mean I can't acknowledge their abilities. You tried to diminish them by saying they'll struggle with the bottom 4 East seeds... Well so would we, and so have we the past several years. It's the pot calling the kettle black. Boston is our closest rival in the east right now, even though their record is better I'd say both teams are at a pretty similar level. They're an elite defense with a slightly above average offense. We're an elite offense with a slightly above average defense. Both teams have similar netRTGs and similar expected win percentages.

                    The reason I don't just mindlessly shit on them is because they are a threat. This team always plays down 2 or 3 notches in the playoffs. We can't afford to do that against them because they're right there with us and might have homecourt advantage to boot. I talk about them in this light because the last thing I want to fucking do is get knocked out of the playoffs by the Celtics. I talk about the Raptors flaws because i want them corrected so we're at a HIGHER LEVEL than the Celtics going into the playoffs so even with our usual dropoff we can still beat them.

                    So yeah keep on with this bullshit of calling me a Celtics fan because I acknowledge that they're a very good and very well coached team; you, Demo Shift, KeonClark and anyone else who wants to push that BS narrative.

                      Think of this as a Trump rally. Who wants to hear anything positive about the Democrats, whether it's true or not?
                      If we knew half as much about coaching an NBA team as we think, we"d know twice as much as we do.

                        This board is so ridiculously blinded by it's hate for the Celtics that it creates it's own false reality lol

                        We are not the better team now and won't be in the near future pending a miracle trade. They are far better coached, they have the proven Playoff performers, they are ahead in the standings for a reason, their core is younger only ENTERING their prime not leaving it (ie/ Lowry and Ibaka) and they have a boatload of assets to only further widen the gap. That's not being a "Celtics' lover/fan", those are just cold hard facts our delusional fanbase needs to come to terms with.

                        Now all that said, unless your team has LeBron in the East....you can be beaten in the Playoffs out in our conference. Especially this year when BOS hasn't as yet added that last piece via trade and while this group is on Year 1 together (doing so without their second best player who should return, another thing Rap fans conveniently glaze over) and while Brown and Tatum are still pups but odds do favor them. But yes absolutely I do give our team a chance to beat them in a series right now and do hate them equally...all of these things are true and too bad this board doesn't accept the same simple truth.
