Vertuzzi

His fucking feet weren’t set. You can watch the slowmo all you want but watching in real time shows he wasn’t set.

Another Dallas sports team failing yet again. What’s new. Loser ass town Wouldn’t have mattered. The Celtics are clearly a superior team. But enjoy that moral victory, I guess.

Enjoy being down 0-3. I hope we have enough room to hang up that 18th banner.

That’s a blocking foul. He wasn’t set

Absolutely

Jaylen motherfucking Brown😤 Foot on the throats now. End it boys!

Tkachuk could just run his massive German head through the boards on his first shift and I’d think both teams would call it even.

Translation: Some shit that only dudes that are 7’3” and play sports can injure.

I would never degrade our elders like that but he was well before my time.

Well, it’s a fact. See his last three stops before Dallas for reference.

Not after next week…

You think any Celtics fan cares what that clown has to say about our team? He actively roots against Boston, which he should considering the city he grew up in. The Celtics’ success far precedes that skinny fuck running his mouth all day on that awful network. Regarding the Mavs, our fans are generally agnostic about your franchise due to lack of exposure. It’s obviously different now with a Finals matchup but Boston fans couldn’t care less about the Mavs. What I have noticed coming from Dallas fans in both this thread, the Mavs thread, and the Stars thread, is that you guys hate our guts, and I’m not really sure why. Maybe it’s due to arrogance but have you spent time around any fans in LA, NY, or Chicago? There’s really no difference. We take our sports fandom seriously and that tends to make other fans uncomfortable, to the point of generalizing all of us based on the actions of a few dickheads. It’s unfortunate because I enjoy shit talking and welcome it right back. But most fans are simply unable to engage in anything resembling coherent shit talk. It’s usually just the same, unoriginal “Boston fans are scumbag racists.” We’re not and I’m assuming most Dallas fans have never even stepped foot in the city of Boston, much less the Commonwealth.

Paid more in gross terms. I believe the married income tax rate for earnings over $1MM is double in the state of California compared to Connecticut.

The only people surprised by this outcome two games into the series seem to be Dallas fans. NBA media was hyping Dallas’ backcourt as “one of the best of all time” because that’s their job. Everyone knew that was complete bullshit, but at the end of the day their job is to sell the series. The Celtics will close this out in 5.

Well, if your team had more 1 fucking championship in their history maybe you would also gloat about the number of banners. But since your team is practically irrelevant to the basketball landscape, you feel the need to “cringe” at the storied history of our team. And yes, we use “we” because the Celtics belong to the city of Boston. I assume you also use “we” when discussing anything regarding aggy considering that’s the team that inhabits that shithole town you decided to go to school in.

I’m not sure what all this nonsense is about “Dallas can still make this a series.” It’s over. Luka needs to go off for about 50-60 ppg for them to even have a chance; the odds of which are not in favor of that happening. Kyrie sucks and is clearly crumbling under the pressure. Dallas’ role players are no match for the Celtics. We are plenty content on letting Luka get his triple double each game and just shutting down the rest of their offense. I think we steal game 3 or 4 on the road and then win game 5 back at TD to hang banner 18.

He forgot to bring his sage to the court in games 1 and 2. Think we’ll see some kind of chicken sacrifice before game 3. Guy’s a fucking mental case.

It’s over. We could not have had a worse night from the field and still controlled the entire game. Celtics are just too polished and Dallas has one guy. It’s over.

Respect to Luka for carrying this awful team. He’s a fucking baller. Love watching him play. He bitches to the refs too much but that’s the entire league.

Well, considering he’s the whole team, he has no choice but to take defensive possessions off. Kyrie is fucking ass and nobody else on the team scares anyone. He has to save his effort to score 60 in order for them to not lose by 30.

Dallas is playing as well as they can and the Celtics can’t hit piss in a fucking ocean and the Mavs still can’t maintain a lead. One team is clearly better than the other.

He’s a kid….but he’s also correct. Celtics in 4.

This series is over. It’s clear that Dallas is a one man show, a snake, and a bunch of nobodies.

It almost sounded like they mic’d the jockeys. I only heard wind and mud being thrown around. Awful sound quality.
