Bronny scored five points hang the banner
fuck the fakers
Ass kicking. 6 guys in double-figures (two others semi close). Balanced, lethal offense and lockdown D. Gonna win some ballgames.
#I LOVE MARCUS SMART
Love and respect!
Can really see Hugoās age on his drives. Heās got a decent idea for how to get penetration, but heās just not strong enough or explosive enough to get around the second layer of the defense.
Yeah heās still learning. He can get to the lane pretty easily though and thatās a huge advantage. He definitely has the explosiveness but he has to learn about positioning and timing on those drives which will definitely come to him at some point because heās got a really good basketball iq off the ball.
He has plenty of time to develop because heās not going to be the main guy trying to create. His timely cuts off ball are going to lead to easy baskets for him and really help spread the floor and draw the defense away from our primary scorers. Minott also really excels at this.
Hugo will figure it out sooner rather than later and he will understand the timing involved when it comes to kicking it out on those drives or slowing it down to create the space with the second defender. He just needs time and experience. So far though heās one of the best rookies we have had in a while.
Lovely game - Happy Friday!! Grab a beer…
Marcus šš
Alcatraz killing it and Iām all for it
Don’t let LeBron and Luka being out distract you from the fact the Celtics dominated the Lakers
Yeah but we were down Tatum so it kinda evens out really.
Even with them on the game we still win, this game should have been like 126-85 if we didnt play 5v9
Go Celtics!!!
Once Hugo figures out a bag past his failed eurosteps heās gonna be dangerous
Better Luka won
Joe practicing for the zubac/queta/amari lineup
Our triple center lineup…
The refs tried so hard but alas, Celtics too good.
Triple big ššš I fucking love it Joe
12 to 29 FTs lmao. Always good to smoke the Lakers in the Garden
#BRONNY JAMES CUTS THE LEAD TO 22
What a fucking win
1.5 games behind 2nd seed.
It’s coming together.
Hugo cherry on top
Nothing like a Friday night Fuck LA ass whooping.
Bronny with a huge 3 to cut the deficit to 24
Lets blow this bums out
This is just a a great organization. Never take it for granted.
Goat franchise in the NBA for a reason
Opposing teams can’t miss from 3 against us in late game situations
Bronny hit a 3 in the Garden, this is the Lakers superbowl
OMG Bronny made a bucket in garbage time clearly he isn’t a nepo baby
Itās nice all the Lakers fans are cheering when the make a wish kid scores
LOL. Even the crowd cheered when Bronny hit that three
Iām convinced all the Lakers āfansā at the Garden right now are just LeBron homers
Bronny James with a huge 3 to cut the lead to 24
Walsh last 4 games 14, 8, 22, 17 š
The cut to LeBron every time Bronny does anything is so shameless lmfao
Bronny makes a bucket and the crowd goes wild! š¤£
Hugo! That was just plain mean!
Celtics fans celebrating Bronny’s basket.
If James can score, so can the ‘X’…
Wow, give Bronny the game MVP /s
AIR HUGO!
Walshy deserves a better name than garbage man. Impressive!
Michael Jordan Walsh is more fitting
There is no name better than āJordan Walshā
Okay, time for a Marcus Smart chant please. Letās go folks
They will probably distill this entire game into that one Bronny James dunk highlight.Ā
Jordan Walsh reminds me of Andre Igoudala
Fuck the tank. We might finish this season 73-9.
Nahh that had to be pitched in cheers for Bronny wtf was that?
Walsh suddenly becoming a big rotation piece is fucking sick
The ironic cheers for bronny r unreal hhahaha
Walsh looking like JT on the blow by and dunk
Ew, scattered cheers for Bronny in Boston
I know a lot of us were mad that the Mavs gave Luka to the Lakers for nothing and made them good again. But I think it was great:
Luka gonna keep Lakers tickets high for the next decade to come. They’ll be paying out their asses to go watch games.
Luka and Reaves will never win a title. You cannot have 2 traffic cones on defense in the modern NBA. They will continue to get cooked by teams like OKC and Denver in the playoffs over and over. Lakers gonna be 2nd round (maybe WCF once) exits every year, book it.
But they’ll be good enough to A) get bad draft picks, and B) their FO is dogshit anyway and will keep overspending on bums. Not every trade partner is a moron like Nico Harrison.
I appreciate the positivity, but how much Laker tickets cost doesn’t seem important, and there’s no reason to think Luka and Reaves can’t win. Everyone said that about the Jays until they did. Third point is pretty fair, with the exception of Nico being the dumbest human alive, they definitely succeed on brand name far more than FO competence.
there’s no reason to think Luka and Reaves can’t win. Everyone said that about the Jays until they did
I literally said why I think they won’t win.
Jaylen and Jayson never had that issue. Haters just chose to shit on them, but they don’t know ball at all.
You did give a reason, it’s just not convincing. You’re not wrong, and that makes it less likely, but there’s no reason to think it’s impossible. People had similar sounding criticisms of the Jays, that weren’t factually wrong but were insufficient. Doesn’t really seem much different. But I very, very much hope you end up being right!
Bottom line is that there’s no way to pretend the Lakers didn’t get an all time steal in that trade, positive thinking or no. The Mavs were a couple of games away from it with Luka and Kyrie, who’s not a defensive presence at all either. It sucks and it will affect the league for years to come, but I don’t see how to wish or explain that away.
The lakers stink.
So my GIFs donāt auto play. And I will say, every time this one is used, the starting frame is horrifying.

Oh dear god, nightmare fuel….but for the Lakers š¤£
Bron hiding under his bucket hat so he doesnāt have to watch Bronny š
I donāt know how best to say it, but Walshās development is basically āplays like a grown man, nowā
Walsh is the real deal, the growth he has in just this little time is insane
Reaves has more free throws than the entire Celtics team combined. Being a laker is all you need to get free throws folks!
The garbage man era has begun
Take JB out and Celtics still win by 11
Nice move, nice jam
WTF JORDAN WALSH
Jordan Walsh is Shawn Marion with a better jumper
Super happy for Walsh. Heās been a breath of fresh air.
17 for JW.
Bronny should be ashamed he is in the NBA and someone worthy is not….
The bronsexuals have been defending him to the ground lmao
These obnoxious Faker fans are so proud when their team wins without Luka or Bron but will use it as an excuse when they lose, pathetic fan base
Lebrons Ball Yogurt slinging the ball wildly into the bench.
You love to see it.
Only the Celtics would make me worry about a 25 point lead with 3:30 left in the game..
Here we go, last few minutes so the refs start calling our way to bring the FT count back to respectability.Ā
6 threes off the record š
Dos anyone else feel bad for Boucher?
Yes lol
Bronny trying to give our bench a concussion
You go Hugo!
Hey guys I fucking hate the Lakers, how about you?
Not fond of them myself, tbh.
Damn, I feel the same
Damn, Bronny.
HUGOOO
Letās hope ābackdoor Gonzalesā doesnāt stick as a name haha
I’m not joking, Walsh got to his position in defense before the Laker dude even knew where HE wanted to go XD
I see that Lakers has surrendered and sent their bench guys on court, shouldnāt we do the same?
White Walsh Minott, the new chinese wall
Damn, I wanted Josh to get that 3 pointer…
Iāve seen enough. Build the Jordan Walsh statue.
5th wire to wire win so far is actually wild
JJ Redick gives off Pete Hegseth vibes š¬
This is spot on!!
This team is going to go deep into the playoffs when Tatum comes back. How is our GM this good???
damn Minott deserved that 3
Imagine having a 30-10 free throw advantage and still being down by 20
Even their 3rd stringers expect FTs lol
MINOTT
Is Austin Reaves a top 10 player? Uhmm of course not š heās a top 10 flopper for sure
Yes he’s a top 10 player (rn). If we want to talk about FTA we have to mention other players in the top 10 category. Ik you guys hate LA but we just yapping atp
Huh?
Exchanging shots for Free Throws seems a bit weird but hey, thatās the Lakers
I remember the last time we tried for the 3 pt record and comically missed like 9 straight 3s at the end of the game rofl…..
Banner night
These refs are absolutely gonna get indicted on federal racketeering charges.
How has LA shot 4 X as many free throws?!?
Why ANYONE bets on the NBA is beyond me.
Wait, I forgotāJJ āThe Condorā Redick played at Duke. Of course theyāre going to get the calls.
you really think the feds are gonna crack down on corruption??
Oh look, a Lakers player at the lineā¦again.
We’re in striking distance for the 3 point record lol
What is it?
I want to say 28 or 29
I was wrong about so many things regarding this Celtics team, Walsh, browns ability to hold it together, rebounding, the 5 spot, team defense. I really feel like a fool. Not that this Lakers team on the floor is a juggernaut but we’re cruising. I think we can take any team in the league in a playoff series the way we are playing.Ā
Bronny sighting š
Austin Reaves is the biggest foul baiter in the league. Itās actually sad to watch the league allowing a un drafted player get more calls than the Jaysā¦.. anything for the bum lakers right
I’ll never forgive nico for making the lakers relevant again
If by relevant you mean first round exitā¦yes
Going to make a post on rnba, lets see how much it takes for a mod to delete it or ban me
This Austin Reaves glazing and whistle is fucking ridiculous
The glazing especially
Junior is in - theyāve thrown the towel
Luka dodging his daddy tonight to go become a first time daddy.
In all seriousness, so happy for him!!!
yup. kid 1000 miles away while he lives out his dream
Fuck amazon. Also can we get some celtics history highlights during the timeout breaks? Clearly Bezos has a hard on for the Lakers.
bezos does not give a fuck about anything lol
Itās not just me who sees the blatant Lakers jerking off over and over then
Why are the lakers commentators so biased? I’d assume lakers fans want some neutrality. As biased as ours our the guys still give the other team propsĀ
9 months to this day (playing Jaylen Brown)
Luka to his fiancee: “Raw tonight?”
My thoughts exactly. Congratulations to Lukaās fiancĆ© on giving birth to Jaylen Brownās grandkid.
Jaylenās handle is finally becoming a strength of his and itās so fucking satisfying to watch
JB 28/8/7
HAHAHAH! A LEBRON STAT LINE! AHAHAHAHHAHA!!!
Walsh reminds me of Iguodala
Nothing wrong with that…
Fuck the Celtics, y’all are shooting 24⁄40. Historical shooting night.
Jordan āKyle āNair Jordanā Korverā Walsh
Can’t wait until the lakers are eliminated in the first round and reaves puts up 16ppg on 40% shooting again š
Same. He always turns into a turd pumpkin in the playoffs.
It took too long for Joe to play JB, we need him on court, gotta step it up if we want to keep the lead over 20, we really playing 5v9 the Fakers + 3 refs + Adam the Gargoyle Silver
This isnāt hyperbole, but⦠Queta is better than Ayton, right?
Its pretty close lol
Of course, how is that even a question
I’m not breathing until we are up 50 lmao
That Walsh x Neemy dap up needs to be framed
Neemias āMichael āLeBron Jamesā Jordanā Queta
That was NASTY
Nice clean up Q!!
I love Queta. Itās great to see how heās been able to flourish in his new role.
All the cynics are still pining for āa starting centerā while Neemyās playing better than 75% of the starting centers in the nba
JBBBBB you owe me for that missed lay
JB with the LeBron statline
Good shit Neemy lol
Missing dunks has gotta be embarrassing
Think it was partially blocked
Celtics needs to get fouled hard before you get freethrows. Lakers always getting babied by the league
Crazy how Reaves gets calls that JB can only dream of
Put Walsh back in!
Nobody wants to watch you reward foul baiting NBA
jaylen with the ethical go for the dunk and fouled anyway, cursed cursed
Never place Reaves on the same level as Jaylen Brown
I laughed when they tried comparing Jaylen’s 15 in the 3rd to Reaves 16 in the 3rd. He probably had 70% of that from the line.
That looked like one of Brad’s old inbounds plays.
WE GOT A FREE THROW!!!
If Jordan Walsh develops into a Tayshaun Prince kind of player oh my fucking god
I like that comparison š¤©
Jb allergic to and 1s
I’m not saying that I knew Walsh would be this good but something had to give since he competes against JB and JT. I feel like those 2 have a big hand in him being this good since those 2 are your stars and he’s competing against them.
The team is winning, and the haters in here are still at it.
if you got haters you doing something right
Reaves needs to be subjected to an actual foul. Like if heās gonna get these calls, letās make them count.
I forgot we could actually get FTs
This is why I love my fucking Celtics so goddamn much. We lose Tatum, and everyone steps up and weāre still competitive. The Lakers miss their superstar for one game and theyāre hot trash.
Nba is a joke. Dudes like Reaves putting up numbers that woulda been mvp numbers just a decade ago just cause the reffing
Nba is a complete joke. Just allowing any clown to get 15+ free throws.
Not JB though
He’s not a clown though š
Did Reaves ever consider being a better high school and college basketball player?
That dude Derrick landed on has a magnificent beard.
nba foul hunting era in full force. so bogus. does anyone enjoy watching it?
Every time I’ve checked on the game thread, the last two Lakers scores are FT lmao
Is Jordan Walsh turning into Spurs Kawhi? My delusion says yes resoundingly
