You've been a Celtics fan for 20 something years?

Yeah

this was the OG Celtic duo

Unrelated to the pic.

Fun fact but KG is one of my most favorite players ever.

My list is very weird and I have KG on it.

My all time starting team includes him whether there are people better than him or not.

Almost fell asleep watching Nuggets game.

Good thing I play CS:GO atm too.

At this point, I think it's hard to not call Nikola Jokic the best player in the world. This is getting ridiculous. And he hasn't even been really bad on defense at all.

Aside from Anthony Davis, Embiid has been the most impactful defender ever since he came back from injury.

Yeah there's a big gap between AD and everyone else defensively currently. I think you could make a strong argument for JJJ before Grizzlies got bounced or Draymond. Bam too. But Embiid is certainly up there.

You can't be the best in the world without sniffing a NBA finals appearance first lol but yea once he get to that it might be clear cut

Oh I meant for the second round definitely. It's just a nightmare matchup for Draymond trying to defend LeBron & AD and he just has no chance on those lobs with AD. Bam has been himself defensively but I guess it hasn't been as noteworthy as AD and Embiid have been doing against their opponents even though there was a time when he was the best defensive player in the playoffs

Yeah, fr.

Curry 3/14 from 3 last game.

"Refs won Lakers the game".

these mfs set 50 illegal screens every game but then complain when a late 3rd quarter foul doesnt go their way.

Not to mention that draymond has the longest leash from the officials,never gets a second technical despite yelling at refs for 5 minutes after a call.

Meh. Wish Heat closed it out. They almost made a comeback. Brunson just hade a game of his life and that's it.

 

[Noyman]

Brunson had to play every minute just to separate it late against the Heat. I hope he still has more energy to beat the Heat in game 6

RJ had a great game and Mitchell Robinson made the Heat look like idiots for trying to intentionally foul (53.0 FT%). Luckily he was ready today

Knicks and Celtics are the 2 fanbases that definitely do not have bandwagons lol. If anything we'd sniff it out immediately

Ain't you always sayed Stephen A was a fake fan? so he count as a bandwagon lol even if you say some Knicks fans don't claim him they can't stop him for repping the Knicks lol

Delaying inevitable.

For Knicks, Brunson played the game of his life and for Warriors Wiggins randomly showed up.
