Boston fighting hard to make it to game 7 only to get blown out in front of their own fans has to be some sort of masochism or something

BeefyHamstrings · 2023-05-30T02:43:47+00:00

Jaylen Brown legacy game

OnLevel100 · 2023-05-30T02:44:12+00:00

It wasn't a gentleman's sweep, but the Heat definitely made it sting.

passrebel · 2023-05-30T02:48:21+00:00

This hurts the chances of a Lakers-Celtics finals matchup

Giving an unprecedented level of hope before blowing it sums up the Tatum and Brown era

Boston becomes first city to lose a home Game 7 to an 8-seed in both hockey and basketball in the same season.

FADE EM HOES

JinFuu · 2023-05-30T02:44:39+00:00

It took all the Celtics had, but they put the dagger in the heart of the Heat with that put in in game 6.

Then the Heats second health bar activated.

AJohns-US · 2023-05-30T03:04:16+00:00

It will forever blow my fucking mind how this heat team made the NBA Finals. At the beginning of this years playoffs, if you would’ve bet on the heat making it out of the first round I would’ve called you a dumbass. Jimmy, Bam, some elderly guys and a bunch of undrafted players just became invincible for some reason. Props to the heat for making this happen for themselves.

suzukigun4life · 2023-05-30T02:43:38+00:00

The Boston Celtics:

Gave the Sixers hope before beating them in Game 6 and beating the fuck out of them in emphatic fashion.
Caused Embiid to garner infinite levels of slander as the MVP's season came to an embarrassing end.
Got Doc fired.
Fell 3-0 to the 8th-seeded Heat, causing everyone to load up on potential memes.
Won two straight after falling 0-3, causing r/NBAcirclejerk to go on suicide watch.
Won game 6 in all-time epic fashion, becoming the first team to host a game 7 after trailing 3-0 in the series.
Ensured that either they will pull off the first ever 0-3 comeback, or will blow the series after forcing a game 7, thereby guaranteeing that memers will get someone to clown on.
Extended Inside the NBA's season by three extra episodes, as opposed to if they had gotten swept.
Lost Game 7 despite having all the momentum going in, in blowout fashion, barely even reaching 80 points.
Provided Jaylen Brown a chance to have a Harden-esque closeout game, garnering him some surefire slander to end his season.

Thank you Celtics. Enjoy infamy.

C-Dawg2_0 · 2023-05-30T02:43:37+00:00

If Mazzulla had just watched “The Town” a 5th time, a series reverse sweep would’ve been guaranteed.

jc-f · 2023-05-30T02:44:00+00:00

In a series featuring Jimmy Butler, Jayson Tatum, Jaylen Brown, and Bam Adebayo, somehow Caleb Martin was the best player over the whole 7 games.

phbstudent · 2023-05-30T02:43:41+00:00

“Don’t let us get one more”

“Okay” Caleb Martin

There was only legitimately only 1 scenario funnier than the Celtics getting swept and we somehow ended up with it. We are truly blessed.

EaglesPvM · 2023-05-30T02:43:43+00:00

Blown out in game 7.

I couldn’t imagine that happening to my team

Sandasmandas · 2023-05-30T02:45:51+00:00

Wow Celtics fans experienced a sweep and a game 7 loss in the same series…

CenturionElite · 2023-05-30T02:44:28+00:00

Letting them win 3 to even the series 3-3 only to blow them out at home in game 7 was worth it.

coltsmetsfan614 · 2023-05-30T02:43:58+00:00

Props to the Heat because this is a way funnier outcome than just sweeping the Celtics lmao

ace1oak · 2023-05-30T03:13:12+00:00

reporter: why did you lose, mazulla: we didnt make enough 3s, reporter: are you too reliant on 3s? mazulla: no
lmao????

Jaylen Brown.

NOT TODAY!

“We’ll be right back in the same situation, and we’re gonna get it done.”

NBA writers were also on strike so they followed this storyline and just swapped out the winner of last year's ECF.

Moose_Knuckles · 2023-05-30T02:51:14+00:00

Just fade us for 2024 too, we need a break.

Miami Heat just made the Eastern Conference this year far entertaining than the West. You love to see it.

mapetho9 · 2023-05-30T03:07:55+00:00

Barkley said it best in postgame, Celtics only win on talent alone, they don't run an offense and aren't mentally tough. Need to make some changes in the offseason. Back to back seasons with a golden opportunity wasted. Can't run it back with the same team and expect different results. Embarrassing to perform like that in a game 7 at home.

ronaldo119 · 2023-05-30T02:43:52+00:00

“Jalen Brunson over me!?”

“Tobias Harris over me!?”

“Derrick White over me!?” <- You are here

“Nikola Jokic over me!?”

“Erik Spoelstra over me!?”

“Adam Silver over me!?”

“James Naismith over me!?”

sivervipa · 2023-05-30T02:46:09+00:00

The suffering was worth it. The Heat went on a revenge tour through the East this year.

See you guys in the playoffs next year Boston.

doublegoldendragon · 2023-05-30T02:49:26+00:00

Just got out of Thai prison. Is Caleb Martin the best player in the NBA?

knowitall190 · 2023-05-30T03:16:32+00:00

How the hell did Caleb Martin not get the ecf mvp. That dude straight up balled during this series

AutographedSnorkel · 2023-05-30T02:45:15+00:00

The Rockets might actually give James Harden and Jaylen Brown $450+ million. Fucking end me

WordNahMean · 2023-05-30T02:54:51+00:00

Oh the irony.

At the start of the playoffs, everyone was saying how the East was a done deal and its going to be the Bucks, Sixers or Celtics going to the finals and the West was up for grabs.

Who would’ve thought the NBA would pull a UNO reverse card and the 8 seed is coming out the East while 1 seeded Denver pretty much slapped everyone out of the way to the finals lol
