Lately, Garnett has a knack for getting in peoples' face after hitting a shot. The league has done nothing about it, so as long as they don't, somebody is goin to respond with a punch to his jaw, which would make my day. :ihit

The Celtics also seem to play dirty as well, elbows to players back, and are nothing but thugs trying to pick a fight. And have the worst commentators of all time. I don't care how many games they win, no class
equals no respect. I guess two out of 3 Boston teams cheat: Celtics, Patriots

Yeah, when he plays the Cavaliers he settles for talking shit to the crowd at the Q. Garnett is a classic bully. No way he picks on anyone his own size.

But, he's the champion, and he can do what he wants until someone stops him on the court.

:lol Yeah, but Duncan wore KG's ass out on that court. The Spurs are tough, but they dont start fights and try to bully other players, or show guys up. The Lakers are just soft and run from fights. That pisses me off so bad that other teams push the Lakers around.

I wish the fans could just go on the court and fight each other. Laker fans would never lose a fucking match. Me and the drunk Mexicans from the 300 section would wreck havoc.

I think your underestimating the rowdies here in San Antonio. Just about every Cali transplant I've met freaks out. But we will never know cause it aint gonna happen so oh well :lol.

Eh, there are always players/teams that aren't exactly classy. The two things I can't stand about the Celtics are:

1. Garnett-this bitch thinks he owns the league after an overall shitty Finals performance in which Pierce stole the show and bailed his ass out?

2. They are allowed to get away with more than any other team in the league. I like physical basketball, the problem is, the Celtics are the only team in the league allowed to play that style!

So many hurt feelings. I had no idea people were so sensitive and feel terrible that the Celtics have upset anyone.

There's a fine line between winning and callously disregarding the delicate needs of basketball fans around the country. Fans' feelings must be taken into account!

I only hope the Celtics will take this seriously, become well mannered gentlemen, and be more tactful on their way to their 18th title.

Only in the first round. The Cavs are the second best team in the league. As it stands now the East finals are the real Finals.

Significant dropoff in the east outside of BOS/CLE

The West is still stacked. The Spurs or Lakers are going to have to scrap hard, no matter their opponents, all three Western Conference rounds. Utah, Denver, NO, HOU and POR aren't no bitches. In the east only two teams besides BOS/CLE stand out and those are Orlando and ATL, and really, neither is as good as most of those west teams. Everybody else in the east is shit as far as the playoffs are concerned.

as long as they keep winning, it's hard not to be impressed. i find this argument similar to the complaint against the spurs that they're boring. as long as they keep winning, you can't fault the psychological games they play on court. now when a team like the wizards start trash talking like in last year's playoffs, it's another story.

The 8th seed in the West would not be a challenge for Boston. They are 32-6 against the West since the beginning of last year. 12-1 against the Southwest Division.

I take it you never watched CBS in the 1980s. Every game was Heinsohn fellating Bird, McHale, and Parish.

12-20-2008, 05:27 PM
On League Pass, I haven't watched more than two Celtics broadcasts in the past two seasons. My reasoning is based solely on not wanting to listen to Tommy Heinsohn. I'd love to watch the C's, but I can't. I fucking loathe Tommy too much.

(Don't knock the Hawks. Those guys are gooooood.)
I've seen near every Hawks game for the past half decade. They are good, but they're not as good or anywhere close to as deep as most of the good teams out west.

Gant
12-20-2008, 05:38 PM
Refs: The Celtics lead the league by far in technicals. The refs are hurting the Celtics not helping them.

Stern: He didn't even give the Celtics cap relief when a player DIED. Stern has hurt the Celtics not helped them.

Tommy: He was a great player, a brilliant coach, and is a beloved broadcaster for his audience. Please understand: If you are watching the games in another region of the country the broadcast isn't meant for you. You are eavesdropping.

We love Tommy. You don't like him? We don't care.

I loved Hot Rod Hundley, a legendary broadcaster in his own right, but when it became apparent that his old drunken ass was no longer capable of doing his job, I was fine with the Jazz demoting him off of TV. I understand the C's want their tradition, but the man is an absolutely unwatchable, unprofessional, washed-up, embarrassment.

And once I pay my $180.00 for LP I don't consider myself eavesdropping. The Celtics are a part of THE NATIONAL BASKETBALL ASSOCIATION and if the team isn't going to do something about their train-wreck of an announcer the National Basketball Association, should.

Um Timmy didnt have to respond by hitting back. If anything KG did duncan a favor which was a big mistake on his part. Duncan abused him with his game which is the best way to respond while on a basketball court. A pissed off Duncan isnt a good thing for the opposition.

I wish the league would allow more physical play but these stupid ass rules dont allow it. If we are allowed to be physical, other teams should be too.

Thank you Shadowflames. The Celtics are not on Mount Olympus or heaven, they are merely 17 time champions.

Your dissatisfaction is noted. I beg your pardon and profusely apologize. I will try to be more delicate in the future so as not to offend you. I will strive towards greater sensitivity to cushion you from further emotional bruising.

Garnett is Duncan's bitch.


"I remember one time Kevin Garnett was mushing him, and shoving him in the face; and Tim Duncan didn't do anything, he didn't react. He just kicked Kevin Garnett's ass, and won the damn championship. You know what I'm sayin'? That's gangsta. Everybody can show emotion, dunk on somebody, scream and be real cocky; but Tim Duncan is a ... he's a pimp."

The Celtics won the majority of their titles back in the 50's and 60's when there was no salary cap. It was a very different league back then with far less competition between teams.

In the modern NBA era they have 6 titles, 3 in the 80's, 2 in the 70's, and one in 2008.

1957, 1959, 1960, 1961, 1962, 1963, 1964, 1965, 1966, 1968, 1969,

1974, 1976, 1981, 1984, 1986, 2008

The Lakers have 9.

A mind-numbing 5 titles in the 80's and 3 from 2000-2003. They have been IN the Finals a stunning 29 times. They have simply never fallen off the radar like the Celtics did from 1986-2007. That's a stunning 21 YEARS without returning back to the Finals. Absolutely pathetic for the supposed most "historic" franchise in the league to not even get close to the Finals for OVER TWO DECADES.

It would never happen to the Lakers. They have consistently stayed good throughout the years due to great ownership and quality GMs.

Come on, this is the first big team of this sport. Red Auerbach was a walking testament of the league as it was in its early days. They won all those titles after the merger. Are you telling me you wanted to see them with 27 championships instead of 17?

Don't get me wrong--the Lakers are perennially the best of the west. But the Celtics are the more historically the best team basketball has seen.

This wasn't a marketing ploy; are they New York? People wanted to play in a cold-weather city because they had money from all those championships. If they didn't first win one, and didn't have great scouts, they wouldn't have continued to win.

There were questions around Havelicek and Russell and Red got lucky.

KG does this shit to get in people's heads. I don't think he would try it on Duncan again because he's learned 100 professional hypnotists wouldn't be able to get in Duncan's head.

Larry Bird, Charles Barkley and Michael Jordan were all famous for trash talk and they would trash talk anyone they thought would try too hard to respond to it, KG does the same thing. Gasol and Odom are both mentally fragile players so KG did it to them in the finals, and it worked. It helps his team win because it keeps him intense and it fucks with a lot of players.

He doesn't do it against Cleveland because he knows LeBron is not one to respond to trash talk with poor play. Anyone who thinks KG is the only trash talker in the NBA needs to pay a little more attention he's just the only guy who doesn't make it a secret he talks trash.

I used to root for K.G. and he was one of my favorite players......I always hoped he would get the chance to win a ring, but if I knew his fucking head was going to explode when he got his ring I wouldn't of wanted him to get one. K.G. is nothing but a giant pussy who chases around PG's. He's just a mangina who talks crap to little guys, because he knows big men would punk his ass.........that's not "playing with swagger".
