I mean, where do the Celtics go from here? After an abysmal regular season and this debacle in Game 7, what do I have to look forward to seeing next season? An older, slower version of this same team losing to bad teams for 82 games followed by a heartbreaking loss in the playoffs? These guys really shot themselves in the foot in my opinion by not winning this title and I feel bad for them as I wanted to see them do it so badly at least one last time in my lifetime. But if you're asking me and most Boston fans to go through this heartache again next season, forget about it.

I really don't know what the Celtics do to save their fanbase right now. A smudge on the Celtics legacy like this is something we'll all just going to have to live with for the rest of our lives and it's definitely a poor reflection on the Big 3. I feel terrible for these guys and especially Ray but it's over. If Boston wants to remain a competitive market in basketball, one that is going to foster continued excitement and life in their fans, they're going to have to rebuild- no ifs, ands or buts. No one is coming back for more of this and a heartbreak like this stays with you for years. Not the way Boston wanted to start the decade.

I'm just not at all looking forward to next season, especially having to spend another year in Kobe's shadow. After all this... The ultimate letdown in Celtics' history imo. Absolutely crushing
