THE OTHERS BETTER STEP UP in Porzi's absence
we all knew this was always a very legit possibility. this guy just can't stay healthy when you need him the most. he's a good/great player, but I'd really rather have someone who is always available. That was also the biggest reason we didn't win against the warriors because rob williams was injured, and we addressed that by getting another injury prone big man. smh
All done
We got you while you’re out Zingis ☘️. Get healthy, see you in the ECF/FINALS.
2:45 If you can't beat the Magic with Tatum, Brown, White, Holiday and a solid supporting cast of Pritchard, Hauser, and Horford. There is a problem. KP makes them a more versatile juggernaut, but even without him the Celtics still have an elite roster.
Magic's best player is in his second year…..
East finals he needs to come back
None of these idiots have these injuries in their lives; hence, shut up. Very silly analysis……
If you can't reach the finals because of a single player, you probably weren't good enough to begin with. We're talking about Tingus Pingus like he's Shaq, I love the guy, but if we can't replace someone in this team then this team is just not good enough.
This stinks
well…crap
Too bad that Kristaps is injury prone because he was always the missing key the Celts needed to control the paint offensively and defensively. The Celts chances are near zero to win it all given that particular calf injury.
Fake fake fake
If we can’t win without him we don’t deserve to win seriously JB and JT need to step the F up and take this shit over that’s the first two
Time to start playing Queta and Kornett. We got Tatum. We got white. We got Horford. We got Brown. We got Pritchard. We got Houser. Let’s go. We can do this.❤
THE HEAT CAN WIN THIS SERIES AGAINST CELTICS NOW WITH PORZINGIS OUT. MAINLY BECAUSE NOW THEY CAN GET AWAY WITH PLAYING KEVIN LOVE 😮 #HEATIN7
I thought Brissett was their center when using small lineups.
Its alright actually I know Queta is strong and could do whatever KP could do 😊
SMH CELTICS MEDIA AND FANS ARE SO DELUSIONAL LOL SMH!! 😅 THE CELTICS ARE NOT GETTING TO FINALS WITHOUT PORZINGIS. INFACT THE CELTICS WONT EVEN MAKE EASTERN CONFRENCE FINALS WITHOUT HIM!!! 🫨🫨🫨
This team is still a better team than last year's roster. I'll take Jru over Smart, any day.
Ngl to you guys. I don’t like the Orlando matchup with no KP
No luke omg 😱
One person happy he's starting again….. Al😮😮😂❤
I've been saying all year that he was key to getting Boston to winning it all! He definitely needs to be back for EC finals! Which I'm hoping they get to!!
Giannas hurt his and played more. That's a big difference to compare them, kristnaps came right out.
Boston has 3 bigs for backup outside AL.
Boston media jinx the series already. Heats still in the game and dudes start talking about the finals. LOL
If I'm back up center in Boston I'm getting up 3s non stop when I'm not playing. And I mean constantly
We got this,😊
Boston/Massachusetts has the best medical care in usa. I got my acl done at same place tom brady got his done.
I'm saying Celtics Pacers ECF. Without KP i think we lose, lets hope I'm wrong
Ill bet he will not miss the whole series. Need to close the heat tomorrow and get rest before whoever they play next.
Porzingas should start a stretching routine with Tom Brady's trainer Alex Guerrero. Somebody should help make this happen.
Porzingis has been great & the Celtics have needed him. Hope he heals but without him the Celtics still are the best. 18
Chris, please. DROP THE FAKE BOSTON ACCENT!!!
It was only a matter of time. Of COURSE he had to wait until the postseason though.
KP have to gain weight and put on some muscle bad timing but hopes he gets better and returns soon now joe mazzulla is going to have to use Neemias queta/AL horford/luke Kornet
Good. We just need him for the finals anyways. Celtics are and should be good to beat anyone in The east without KP
Celtics in 5 vs cavs/magic with or without porzingis.
Just sucks so bad. Maybe he wasn’t the right pickup. Celtics load managed him ALL season too, and he couldn’t even get through 4 playoff games without getting knocked out.
Injuries really do kill the league. I think the reason the Celtics have been so good over the years is because they’ve built around players who aren’t injury prone, like JT and JB. That’s undervalued in today’s league. No reason to give someone 50 million dollars a season if they you won’t even see them on the court.
celtics will be fine
"the Heat are dead, it is over" …seriously? Have we learned anything? I know the topic is KP's health and projected return, so it is inevitable to talk about future rounds …but we're already deciding to hold him off until we reach the Finals? Ok.
kp second best player?? phil perry bro watch the fucking games bro. the jb disrespect is crazy😭 lowkey i hope he leaves boston he deserves better
weirdly regular season 21-4 without porzingis is a far better percentage than with him – 43-14.. of course better for C's to have kp healthy, but that's not a small sample and indicates they are effective without him, but x tillman and luke kornet need to step up
