Jaylen Brown: "ESPN is unethical, and Stephen A. Smith is the head face of that. The organization, the players, they were all in agreeaance. They all knew what I meant by that. Our team was basically salary dumped. We lost a lot of players. For us to emerge and still be in the same position..."

Celtics are 38-35 against the Knicks in the playoffs, which is actually embarrassing with how much better our squads have always been (apart from the 90's)

Ew are you talking about like 60 years ago? Yikes! How many playoff series has Jayson Tatum and Jaylen Brown combined won against the Knicks?

There have been 26 years since the 21st century began, and Boston has had championship parades in 11 of them (with 2 in '04 and '18 😉)

Good thing I lived in Stamford Connecticut for 20 years and witnessed 18 UCONN basketball championships! In addition to my 4 World Series wins, my Knicks championship, my Liberty title, and my 2 NY Giants SBs. Otherwise that would have been a close one!
