Can the Boston Celtics pull off a miracle against Jimmy Butler, Miami Heat?



There is almost nothing to be optimistic about when it comes to the Celtics and their 3-0 hole in the Eastern Conference Finals. However, John Karalis of Boston Sports Journal and Tom Westerholm spend some time trying to be positive so they can see if there’s a sliver of hope in a seemingly hopeless situation.

    Change the name to Miami celtics. Jimmy butler owns Boston. Made tatum Jordan's grandson.

  5. Ra Pheng

    Not when the two jays paying like a bum espescially jb i dont get it why he always fall over himslf every time he gets the ball no body controll so sissy like girl.😅

  6. CluelessTake

    Wow John you be receiving Loyalty award for this episode. I mean not just win a game. But this series? Anyway if the C's want a different result they need to do different stuff from those 3 games that they played

  7. JorjLien Chong

    The play making have to change, not Tatum holding the ball most the time. The better shooting bench player need to check in to the court like the season. Let Dwhite & Smart guard Jimmy. Passing more rotation.

  8. dee bo

    you start Brogdon, Smart, Jaylen Brown, Tatum, R Williams in game 4 with Horford and White coming off the bench

  10. Dr Drew

    Even if they make a miraculous comeback to win this series they are NOT beating the joker and the nuggets

  11. Jay Cayuca

    I can't seem to understand that the media written off the Miami Heat by a sweep since the start of 1st round.

    The Answer?:
    The Heat fooled you all. Not knowing that they have 15 Strong deepest bench minus Herro and Oladipo. Other teams believe in paper but Heat believe in real live action fighting. They are a bunch of undrafted mercenaries. No Mercy👊 together with their genius Commanding General Spo in the battle exposing the Boston Celtics weakness.

    Oh by the way, kudos to the mainstream media for giving Miami 3% chance to win. Never poke the bear, do not disturb a sleeping tiger!

    Lets Go HEAT!🔥🏀🏆

    as a Heat fan who also loves watching basketball, regardless of the teams, the Celtics have zero defense this year and you saw it in the first 2 series. The 76ers are not a great team this year, it never should have taken 7 to beat them. Your coach said we are going all offense and am just gonna outscore you. Regular season, that works. In the playoffs, defense wins.

  14. Robert Cammon

    Organization of the Celtics chose Pride over Professionalism. They wanted to publicly shame Ime and it cost them a championship. Heat Organization is the standard.

  15. Mr Sexy

    This Celtics team sucks there to weak. Until we trade Tatum and Brown for real superstars we ain't winning nothing. Can't believe at the beginning of the season people were actually comparing this bum ass team to the 08 Celtics.

  16. Ginger Blue

    Just wait and see…. I'm calling it now. Celtics in 7, greatest comeback in history (Sorry Red Sox ☺)

  17. Artorius _

    This team just throws in the towel and refuses even to fight. This is not a Celtics team I’ve been watching. They are just a bunch of individuals packed on one side.

  18. chokloconqueso

    POSITIVE TAKE: if teams can win 4 games in a row to sweep, it’s not impossible to win 4 games in a row to stay alive.

    not betting on it tho 🤷🏽‍♂️

  26. Greg Leavitt

    Analytics suck. They're the Auto-Tune of pro sports. There's a glitch in our matrix or DNA that isn't allowing us to beat teams who BELIEVE they can beat us, whether they're "good" teams or not — in fact, most aren't good (on paper) at all. They just Believe and Will it to happen. And we have no answer. It's our kryptonite. Aside from that, the only way to reverse the fate of this series is for the team doctors to inject a cocktail of Larry Bird stem cells and coke into Tatum & Brown!

  27. Joshua Sabater

    We have to assume that they are gonna play lights out. It’s no point in saying “they’re not supposed to be making those!” When they are making those shots. We have to play with some grit and heart

  28. Joshua Sabater

    We have to attack the paint forget the three. We have to force bam and Jimmy to defend this whole series they have been resting on defense because we keep forcing threes. We gotta get them in foul trouble and hunt the matchups with Lowry

  32. tatt4music

    Wow. How easily Celtics fans give up. I’m pretty sure they are half the reason the Celtics lost game 2 and 3. So many of you gave up after game 1.
