  1. jeric13xd

    My 3rd favorite podcaster calling games with Breen 😭😭😭 good stuff jj

  2. Kyler1313

    Boston just seems to sleepwalk through most of the game, turn the Jets on for 10 minutes, and then win comfortably. Seems to happen nearly every game.

  3. NeolibGood

    Two takeaways. Celtics are incredible and Tatum has no chance to win the mvp.

  4. TheKnicksMakeMeDrink

    Never seen them miss a shot in my life

  7. PrecisionPresser

    Hear me and rejoice!

    You KNICKS have had the privilege of being saved by the Great Forehead.

    You may think this is suffering, No… it is salvation.

    The universal scales tip toward balance because of your sacrifice.

    Smile… for even in death, you have become children of DERRICK WHITE.

  8. stockyriki

    45 wins before 15 losses is kinda insane and this is their longest win streak (yet) this season

  10. c_u_in_da_ballpit20

    This really does feel like the year for us.

  11. gobirds18_

    Who tf let the Celtics get Porzingis. This shit is unfair.

  12. HokageEzio

    Put up a solid fight, that 3rd quarter killed them.

    Can’t wait to play this team 8 more times 😐

  14. Brady331

    We usually suck in the third quarter but today we played one of our best quarters of the season

  15. youkrocks

    The refs took all the suspect calls they used to give Trae and gave them all to Brunson.

    I have no idea what an offensive foul is or isn’t after this game. Guess it all comes down to the twerk

  16. Dazzling-Reason-5140

    Going 5-0 against the Knicks is gonna feel so sweet

  17. baccunawa

    people will say that the eastern conference is “weak” but honestly i think the Celtics are just that good

  18. Spyned

    GGs Knicks, played really well and Brunson was amazing but Boston was able to go nuclear in the second half. The game was pretty physical and it was annoying when the refs decided to pick and choose random points in the game to not let it flow for both teams.

  19. robetyarg

    Excellent game all around. Really excited to see this team in the playoffs, New York has a bunch of dogs. I’m into fat bitches. This has been an absolutely great stretch of basketball by the Celtics!

  20. koj12144

    Tht third quarter was fkin nuts lmao, just insane shooting

  21. Chrisp722

    This Boston team is incredibly good. I really dont see any holes in the rotation. Would love to see how the Knicks would do in a 7 game series with OG and Randle healthy and Alec Burks playing 0 minutes 

  23. RiPFrozone

    “Not impressive, it’s a super team, (please ignore my opinion that the dame bucks were my favorite to win the East before the season started when I acted like the Celtics losing Marcus smart was a bigger hit that adding KP and Jrue Holdiay)” – r/nba

  25. ComfortableDino

    “You’ve had this squad for 5 years. Why haven’t you done it yet?”

    What?

    What?

  27. Efficient_Art_1144

    This is a really likable Knicks team. Weird to see them built smartly and with some patience.

  28. ClickElectronic

    Jaylen Brown still taking a 3 at the end of the game when he was basically on the court with 9 bench players was pretty funny to see.

  29. IceJeyD

    1st half, Celtics are getting outmathed in the 3 but scoring at will inside, yet the lead was just 4. 3rd quarter, they created a big lead after going back to their game of shooting 3s. That’s why I don’t believe the concerns about em shooting a lot of 3s and not scoring a lot inside. This team are generating open looks and mismatches even with simple actions.

  30. beklog

    1st ive seeing defensive 3s called twice in a game.. and both from KP lol

  31. Rgb3rgb2

    Alec Burks is an actual bum. If Thibs is seriously thinking he should be over McBride in the rotation then he’s shitting himself.

  35. C3h6hw

    Ik they won but why aren’t Boston playing their new acquisitions? Xavier Tillman put 20 and 10 on AD in the playoffs last year why is he getting benched for Luke Kornet

  36. licker34

    Celtics made Scott Foster irrelevant in the 3rd quarter. Always nice to see.
