What the Celtics are getting away with is a travesty to basketball

[DrHouse]

I'm sorry from the moving screens, pushing, shoving, hacking, BS touch fouls on opposing teams.....it's no surprise that their record is this good. They don't need to be spotted 5-6 BS calls a game by the refs.

[ClingingMars]

completely agreed.

[RsxPiimp]

yeah. i was going to make a similar thread.



kg gets a whole lot for his moving screens its really disgusting. another thing is how paul pierce gets a lot of leeway in grabbing and the drama queen flops a whole lot when he drives to the basket.



these champs sure do act like a bunch of pussies

[Many PackYao]

I agree. It's fucking 8 on 5 out there.Any team vs the Celtics is already at a disadvantage.The Celts plus the 3 refs=automatic win.:p:

[lil_penny]

Refs the celtics 6th man haha..

You should try to watch a Laker game without homer glasses on. It's like watching the Celtics in gay colors.

As much as I liked the Celtics in the East in previous yrs and especially last yr against the Lakers this is ridiculous. They are gettin away with alot of shit out there. Its fuckin crazy. God how I hope for a Celtics-Spurs Final, show the Celtics what a REAL West team is about. Sorry Lakers, ya'll just folded last yr.

Let's see you're blaming the refs for Amare being a bone head. BTW Amare is by far the dumbest NBA player, and we're seeing the true Amare this year.

It ain't so pretty without D'antoni is it Amare?

The irony being that Amare had a hand in running Mike out of town and now is missing his offense.

LOL you really think the Lakers get anywhere near this respect? Hell Kobe doesn't even get the calls that Pierce does every night.

[Amuseddaysleeper]

I will agree with the fact that Kobe isn't getting nearly the superstar calls he used to.

Fixed that for you.

I like the way they play and wish more teams were allowed to play like that; I hate their asshole players and asshole fans.

[JoeTait75]

Guess someone's going to have to beat them, huh?

[JamStone]

Suns aren't as good offensively and Amare isn't getting as many touches in this system and with Shaq from day 1 and isn't happy about it, but he's still putting up comparable numbers to his previous seasons. 22 ppg, 9 rpg, 56% FG. With the slower tempo, coaching change, and the team trying to integrate Shaq more, I'd say Amare has actually played pretty well all things considered. He does still stat pad against scrubs in blowout games either way, but as dumb as he is for many things, he's still bringing a decent game to the problem filled team.

Pacers played them well. Maybe teams should watch those games.

[Thunder Dan]

not to mention they bitch about EVERYTHING. They think they are god's gift to the NBA- but nobody gives a shit about Ray Allen, Paul Pierce or even Kevin Garnett. When they were playing in small markets nobody gave a shit about them, they are just semi-stars that need eachother to win, without eachother they play on teams with lottery picks every year......which is a fact because it's already been proven.

Lebron and Kobe make shitty teams look good- these 3 fools all suck on shitty teams

I liked when the refs missed a BLATANT double dribble by KG where he posted up, almost got forced out of bounds and picked up to pass, then re-posted and started his dribble again. Then the Hawks bench got a T for complaining about it.

Seems real fair to me. :rolleyes

[Reggie Miller]

Pacers played them well. Maybe teams should watch those games.

Historically, these teams hate each other. The Pacers tend to play them very physically, which forces the refs to allow some contact. This doesn't work quite as well with the two current squads because the 2008-2009 Pacers don't play defense as physically as they have in the past, and the 2008-2009 Celtics are a bunch of nancy-boys.

I don't know if I'd go quite that far, but your basic point is 100% correct.

[DrHouse]

Do you ever wonder WHY the Celtics seem to be so good at closing games out???

The Atlanta game is a perfect example. KG BLATANTLY double dribbles in front of the ref....fuck everybody in the building and everyone watching the game could have made that fucking call. ATL bench gets a fucking T for complaining about it.

That's a game changer right there. Take away that T and it's a tied game.

It's shit like this that consistently happens every single 4th quarter where the Celtics are close to a team. The refs give them everything.

same shit happened vs the rockets earlier this season, i actually heard KG picking on Alston, wasn't real close but i heard him trying to start something and Rafer got the T. The rockets lost that game by 4 but who knows :ihit

No shit. Kobe/Lebron are major superstars. The closest thing the Celts have is Pierce but he isnt a superstar on their level. Thanks for saying something that was said all of last year. As to nobody giving a shit about the current Boston three party, last time I checked they are the on the team labeled as the defending champions. Part of your post is on facts but the rest is on jealousy and hatred. Keep it going. :lmao:lmao:lmao

LMAO, I didnt' see that, but I'm pretty sure I saw him blatantly travel. And even as a Celtics homer, I was like, "Uhm... I can't believe they didn't call that."

[Ginobilirules]

I sooooooooooooo agree with all you guys about the nba's wetdream celts, anybody regardless of which team you support, and love except the celtics, smart fans that's only a few of us who know real b-ball can see it's pathetically obvious that the nba is rigged in favor of these these over rated celtics. if the nba's fair, my Spurs if healthy will shutdown this Boston team no doubt, 4-2 in the finals book it"" we have way too much exp with this current nucleus and boston has no answers for our better"" big three, and co. also Manu" will eat Pierce up" at every opportunity given since MANU"" is a so much better player than Pierce hands down. and the spurs will be even more physical than the celtics, trust me but with class, and we can get an even stronger killer instinct"" than these pussy"" overrated nba's wetdream celtics. the nba officials like stern, and stu jackson, and co, are probably connected to organized crime but are very sligh, and cunning about it rigging these games and playoff games too".

PIERCE HAS A BIG MOUTH'" AND TALKS ALL KINDS OF FALSE BASELESS, BULLSHIT"' Manu and co, let their game and skills, talk of who's really better and true b-ball fans like me know this too. pierce is good but yet very overrated. and Manu is great" already proven countless times and [great] is a whole different level than just good, or very good.

[DrHouse]

I could care less what bandwagon BOS fans think. They didn't even know the Celtics existed until last year. These are the same classless fucks who were chanting "MVP" for Kobe in '06 when their team was garbage.

For all this talk about a storied franchise they sure spent the better part of two decades wallowing in mediocrity.

[Reggie Miller]

I will second that. As a Pacers' fan, I can't even hate the Pistons anymore. They are a shell of the team I loved to hate.

Also, the Pacers have about three likeable players. More importantly, they suck.

By and large, I have always tried to convince myself that poor officiating tends to cancel itself out over the long run. In the last two years, the officiating has gotten to the point that I don't know whether to call them cretins or crooks.

Sour grapes? Very possible. I have seen my favorite team implode in a few short years. That said, I am an old dude, and I have seen my fair share of crappy Indiana teams in the past.

More and more, I am getting disgusted with the entire structure of the NBA. As in, there's not enough "real" pro talent to have more than about 24 teams. The NBA season should start a few weeks earlier and eliminate back-to-backs. Etc., etc. Just for the record, I prefer pro basketball to college.
