[Magic Johnson] In my 44 years of being associated with the NBA I never thought I’d see a Boston Celtics team, a franchise with 17 Championships, quit. I know Celtics fans all over the world must be disgusted and devastated. The Miami Heat blew them 128-102 out in Game 3.

Thanks Magic very cool
Fuck you Magic but you are right.
When a Lakers player is disgusted with how the Celtics played you know this team is an embarrassment
Disgusted and embarrassed.
Not devastated as I expected it.
God damn, maybe Chuck and Magic going in on the team will wake something up.
never thought id stand by magic johnson like this. fucking hell man
I couldn’t believe my eyes when Jaylen took that shot to end the first half
Most embarrassed I’ve ever been as a fan of this team it’s straight up horseshit
celtics are the gods or legends of basketball. very embarrassing to see them quit
Magic has a lot of respect for the Celtics as an organization, obviously he doesn’t want the Celtics to win more rings but he knows what the Celtics are all about through their history and even he knows just how shameful tonight’s performance was
Everyone should roast this team. I hope they get humiliated all summer. Maybe it puts a chip on their shoulder. Or maybe they don’t give a shit.
Hear that. Heat blew the Celtics.
Jesus Christ even this team broken a fucking Lakers legend.
Even Magic is disappointed lmaoo
Disgusted is the perfect word to describe my feelings.
The first shot of the game hit the side of the backboard, and I fucking knew what lay ahead. What’s worse is I watched every second of it!! Jesus. 😞
Magic layin that truth bomb. Hope it stings every single player on this team
These guys (Celtics) have some players who want to be the best, they just don’t want to be the best team.
Jimmy sending the Celtics some beers “you got a whole highlight reel of airballs”
I keep thinking, every single year, what this team would have been like if IT didn’t get hurt and Danny Ainge didn’t trade him away like yesterdays trash for Kyrie.
IT was ALL heart… and it seems like when the team traded him away… all the heart left with him.
This man played against a Boston dynasty. He grew up watching a separate Boston dynasty. This Boston team isn’t worth the shit on their Chuck Taylors.
Shoutout to the great Magic Johnson for this message and its historical context. Perspective is everything. Maybe this will spark change.
Tatum is 25 and JB is 26. It’s easy to overreact as fans but I’m proud to have them represent my Boston Celtics.
Oh god. Even Magic feels bad for us.
Ive been saying for a while how unlikeable this team was. They are making my point.
They blew them?
It’s wild that my Bruins had such an embarassing and catastrophic collapse to an 8th seeded Florida team and the Celtics are on the brink of doing the same exact thing.
Fuck me up sportsball.
This is his way of coping with the Lakers also being 0-3.
