Pope elected = We are so back
Mazzullaball requires a pope in order for Joe to channel his special catholic powers properly.
28% from three since Pope Francis died.
36% from three while there was a living pope.
We are so back.
Pope went to Villanova…
Fuck lol
We’re cooked 😂
He’s also from Chicago so he’s not fucking with the Knicks like that
Yea he’s a cubs fan apparently which would mean he’s probably a Chicago sports fan, the Villanova jokes are funny tho lol
The jokes are fantastic lol I can’t even hate. What are the odds?
Best one so far is that Chicago got a pope before a 4000 yard passer
Brunson is from Chicago
Jersey.
Played in Chicago for HS.
He rides with Donte though…plus he’s from Chicago, gotta hate the Knicks
“God I hate Nickers!”
we are never beating the allegations bruh
It was just a call back to that news lady that said “Los Angeles Nickers” 😭😭
oh yeah… this is not the victory OP thinks it is
He went to Villanova, Brunson is going for 60, Bridges is holding Tatum to 2 points and Hart is gonna get 70 rebounds
Maybe he got bullied by the basketball team in college or something tho so he’ll throw a hex on them
Hate to break it to you…

Fuck. Well JD Vance took out the last pope and trump may be the antichrist they’ll use some dark magic to help us out. OR maybe this whole thing is rigged by draft kings and Vegas and it’s just building up a giant comeback against betting odds… Regardless… There’s a chance? 😭😭😭
Yeah but still Cs in 7
THIS is the kind of Celtics post I like. Insightful. Hard-hitting. Optimistic.
It could also be the depressing, overcast weather in the northeast over the past week. It’s not as if the Knicks played well at all either… both teams kind of sucked despite the 4th Q comebacks.
I like this mindset, people don’t think about regular stuff that could be impacted players enough
Fr and Tatum and white both got super young kids and seem to be extremely involved fathers. Think they’ll play on a different level on the road
Road White was way different from Home White last year when he had a newborn! It was night and day for the first half of the season!
Pope is a Nova grad
Pope probably hates Boston sports. Were cooked, that man has spells in the old language
We gettin exorcized
God have mercy on the Celtics ☘️🙏
knicks in 4 —> celtics in 6
I love this stat! You got me believing again 😂
I think any Mazzula led team requires Jesus, not the pope.
Ps: thank you Jesus for last year.
I would have felt better if pizzaballa was pope tho
The odds were huge.
We are going on a 4 game win streak!!! Popeball engaged…….yahoo
pope is from vons block
If only Jesus existed. Then he could revive Reggie Lewis + Len Bias and place them in the 90’s.
Do you do any research before posting?
Sir, this is the Internet.
Can we avoid these idiotic posts?
No. We will have fun until 11:59:59p.
As long as Mazulla is the coach, we’re fucked.
this is an insane overreaction to two games
No its not. Mazulla is the most overrated coach in the history of coaching.
Only reason they win is because they are an insanely talented team. Mazulla can’t coach.
The offense has no structure. “Just keep shooting 3’s” is not coaching. Not calling a timeout to put in last minute a play is not good coaching.
I’d like to ise my coin, take Mazulla outside and beat his ass on Causeway St.
He’s a disgrace.
”Mazulla is the most overrated coach in the history of coaching.”
I love how this is the explanation as to how you’re not overreacting.
I’d say the coach who brought the Celtics their first banner in 16 years is, in fact, properly rated.
What’s he done? Year 1 he was awful. Year two they bring in Cassell and some seasoned assistants to help him.
Now year 3 we’re back to sucking.
You must be a troll
Nope.
I have an Indiana State 33 jersey in my closet. I remember the old Garden. Do you?
Year 1 as in when he was selected as the head coach about 2 weeks before the season started and had no real ability to prepare or put his system in place and also inherited the old coach’s assistants who felt slighted for being passed up for the head job? With all that context I would hardly consider getting the team 1 win away from the Finals as “awful”
The team would be better right now if he was fired and Cassell took over.
sorry but the players deserve the blame when they play poorly. Tatum has been an inconsistent star under every coach he’s played for. Al played his age. Jaylen loses the ability to shoot too often and becomes a one dimensional player, which hurts the entire offense. KP is looking incredibly washed whether it’s due to illness or not.
This roster is only insanely talented when they play up to their peak potential and it’s not entirely on Joe when they don’t. They’re fully grown adults, this isn’t college coaching.
“It’s Mazullas fault” is just looking for an easy fix when that very well might now be the case.
Bro GTFO with this asinine take.
The Celtics lost last night not because they took bad quality threes because they didnt want to drive, they took a fuck ton of wide open threes - a shot that is statistically higher chance to make than a contested layup. They lost because they couldnt make those shots.
Please explain to me how coaching is at all responsible for players making/missing wide open shots that were generated by decent ball movement.
You think a three is a higher % shot than a layup?
Statistically speaking an uncontested 3 is a higher percentage shot than a contested layup for a decent three point shooter.
Ok Mazulla.
When the other team all has 3-4 fouls a piece, you don’t get a lot of contested layups, I also didn’t see many uncontested 3’s. They rushed a lot of shots. You also have to take into account that they have missed a combined 75 3’s between games 1-2.
When your top two players are supposed to be two of the best finishers at the rim and you’re up 20 with the opposition in foul trouble, settling for 3’s when the team is ice cold is just plain stupid basketball.
The notion that they are doing no drive and kick action and just settling for contested threes is a clear indication that you aren’t a serious watcher of the games. There were moments in game 1 where that happened but it hardly happened in game 2 - you’re complaining they missed wide open 3s. Shots they should take.
Drive and kick? When? Not in the second half of either game.
They start walking the ball up the floor, allowing the Knicks D to get set up and then they settle for crappy forced 3’s.
What games were you watching?
Go back to the Knicks sub
Ok. Pink hat Celtics fans can pound sand.
Keep crying captain! We’ll see you tomorrow!
Get this doomer shit out of my beautiful sub
Sorry.
It’s okay
