Boston doesn't take the regular season seriously...that much should be obvious by now. So if your only reason to doubt the Celtics (in the playoffs) is their regular season performance, then your way off base.
i don't know, to me this was a big test, i love celtics and i am a little sad. they just don't have good plays right now, kg missing too many easy ones. they shouldn't have lost by that much, it is kind of sad.
not taking regular season seriously means not making playoffs, bad excuse, not been able to be clutch in playoffs plain sad, they are missing many bodies, and Doc is not talking about players in the slump
the celtics were trying today and they got murdered. That was an important game for both teams and the celtics just didn't keep up. I think this year is different on both the east and west coast. maybe see some fresh new teams in the finals.
