 Jayson Tatum declared to ESPN’s Rachel Nichols that the Celtics are going all the way. “We’re gonna win the Finals this year,” Tatum said. “Feb. 16, Jayson Tatum says (the Celtics) are going to win the Finals this year.”

Talk about a way to prevent being traded for AD. If we win with this current group, I have a feeling DA won't mess with it. I think we all would be super-psyched!

probably about the only way that Danny wouldn't mess with the roster is to win the title with this crew

Limit the Kobe isolation plays and I truly believe.

I can dig it.

Talk about a Bittersweet Symphony..after all we've been through this year as a team......the vicious rumors....the struggles to mesh..trying to get GH integrated..dealing with the injuries.

We have the talent RIGHT NOW to steamroll the NBA. I truly believe it.

Just because we haven't ran off 20 game winning streaks don't mean it won't happen now.

This team has a LOT to prove, still......

I like his swagger. He and Jaylen are usually reserved so this caught my attention. I think he was pumped up after hitting a big shot in front of the whole country.

They have the pieces to win. I'd throw them in as one of 6 teams that can win it this year. Considering they're a young team, that is impressive.

Favorite: GS
Contenders: MIL, TOR, BOS, OKC, PHI

I remember Paul Pierce promised the Celtics fans on camera that he'd be bringing another trophy back home in June 2010 after winning his All-Star 3-point trophy.

Ugh lol.

I'd consider it a success if they can push GS to 7 games like 2010

I like his confidence, that's for sure  ;D

I really don't know why y'all are against that. There's gonna be plenty of times when teams shut the passing lanes down, and it's needed. Especially when it's easy to anticipate Brad's system...or any system.

You gotta know when to cut the head off the snake, any player that has anything that's unstoppable should be used in those moments.

I really believe that was the gist of Kobe's advice and Tatum trying to figure out when to use it. They need to find him and Jaylen more down low in the post. There isn't many 2 guards that can stop either one, and I even like their odds against small forwards.

Since they're basically playing high-post to bring the center out, that is why you use it.

Brad needs to force the issue there heading toward the playoffs

Time to unleash these dudes at the right time.

Don't care if it's 1996 or 2019...ball is ball.

AND...since I believe Smart is starting to direct traffic and make Kyrie free to be a killer...it would make it much easier for Kyrie if there's a couple more guys they can't stop.

You can only swing the ball so much and then it becomes redundant.

I even believe that's what Terry sees.
