History

Boston has probably 10 championships this millennium across all 4 sports

Luck of the Irish

This is the main issue. The Patriots upsetting the Rams to win their first Super Bowl with a rookie QB was cool. The Red Sox finally defeating the Yankees with an amazing comeback and then winning the World Series for the first time in forever was cool. Then the Boston teams kept winning, Bill Simmons became a douchebag, and the rest is history.

What is it that people hate about celtics??

  • Team?
  • City?
  • Patriots?
  • Red Sox?
  • Bruins?
  • Accent?

Just curious...

Personally I hate Lakers, Yankees, aggys, blOU, and B12 much much more.  

I've hated the Celtics going back to the 70s when the ABA/Spurs merged with the NBA. Red Auerbach continually talked shit about the ABA --  that coaches were bad, the players weren't good enough to play in the NBA, that Julius Erving was a nice kid but not a great player, and that the ball belonged on the end of a seal's nose. And then of course, post-merger the ABA players dominated. Then they backdoored their way into Larry Bird and continually fleeced dumb GMs in trades.

I turned on Boston around 07 when they beat the Indians in the ALCS. Also the Fever Pitch movie made the Sox out to be some holy small market alternative to the Yankees when they spent just as much.

Also Paul Pierce and KG are two of the biggest dickheads ever

Yep never understood that shit. 
Indiana has to be crushed after losing that game. They had it

Any “hate” may have been towards Auerbach arrogance but even as a Knicks fan the Celtics had many players that were like able… Hondo, Cowens, White, Bird, DJ, etc… 

Danny Ainge erases all of those names.

if you aren’t sad that this is coming to an end then something is wrong with you:

 

I fucking love Sir Charles.

Kenny's got some thick skin but he needs it cuz he's too often wanting to contribute something profound that falls well short. Chuck and Shaq know what's up, though--it's all about the LULZ, fellas!

I'll miss the TNT crew if they don't find a home, but I don't really give two shits what happens to the Jet.

I mean Chuck and Shaq are two of the most famous basketball players of all time and probably the publics 2 favorite analysts they will get another job

Agreed, but it won't work if they split them up cuz the magic happens when those two get together and start clowning (on players, fans, entire cities, countries, each other, etc.).

Ernie referees and helps keep them somewhat on topic. Not really sure what Kenny brings to the table.

This game is great, both teams are doing different things well. I'm sure Mavs and Twolves fans teams are having heart palpations right now, but for a neutral observer this is a breath of fresh air over most of the other games in the playoffs so far. Hoping we get 7 games this series with a dozen lead changes in the 4th each time.

Damn that overhead angle it looks like a good putback.

Yeah it was close, but I would guess 75% of the time it wouldnt be called interference.
