The Boston Celtics' Championship Window Is RIGHT NOW!!
Спорт
This is The Boston Celtics' NBA Championship To Lose according to Gilbert Arenas as he & The Gil's Arena Crew preview Game 1 of the Eastern Conference Finals between the Boston Celtics & Indiana Pacers and discuss why the pressure is on for Boston as the team is set up perfectly to become NBA Champions. They also discuss what happens to the duo of Jaylen Brown & Jayson Tatum if the team ultimately falls short, debating if it would finally be time for Boston to move on from their young superstars.
Gil’s Arena premieres every Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday at 11:30am PT / 2:30pm ET.

as a heat fan, derrick white keeps the ball out of tatum and browns hands a lot. defensively it’s not a good trade, but a klay like player who isn’t ball dominant would be a better fit. Tatum is playing at 70%. That man can average near 40 with the ball in his hands more.

Ain't no way I'm splitting them up right now it's a no brainier
The NBA in-season tournament gave these young teams so much credibility in the playoffs and they are utilizing that little experience and putting pressure on these teams with veterans. It gave them the competitive edge to know that every team is beatable. And we are here for it. Next season, all the veteran teams will be swept if they still keep their egos.
I am from Boston he is right it’s pressure for all of Boston team we’re used to winning not me but the fan here are wild

I hate how the media always try’s to label someone as the next Kobe. Remember when they said that to about booker? Smh Kobe is and forever will be top tier and shouldn’t be compared lightly.
Yall gotta get the timeline together. The last 3 years are on tatum and brown (this year included) so bubble chip , on up. Anything prior to that is WILD.
It’s no pressure until they mention it
It’s the supporting cast. You can’t say they just have regular season success when they are reaching the finals.
Losing Udoka hurt them, they would have one if he was still there.
THERE IS NO PRESSURE on the celtics the fact is they make it to the finals all the time which keeps them in contention while 85% of the rest of the leagues fans are happy with their team being 500 or just making playoffs
If they don’t win they going to be recognized as one of those great teams who couldn’t win one
How's does Gil determine who's going to win or who doesn't, when he's never been to a championship series himself???? No one knows who's going to win + Gil ignores ALL of the excuses he makes for the teams he likes, throughout the season, so everything he says about BOS, doesn't really make any sense

The Celtics are a superteam. Regardless of how you chop it up. 2 stars. REALLY good role players…. If they don’t win it’s time to shake things up
This Celtics think they still have time to win Championships whilst all the other 3 teams still left clearly want it now. That will b the difference.
The one sided trades suggestions be sounding ridiculous
Would have to be a crazy return for either Brown or Tatum , Celtics have to keep them , it's the other pieces you can retool with , they just got to be demanding of 1 or 2 ships with this tandem for their careers , while building for future so 2 to 4 more years with them competing but this is the year for the 1st ship or its gonna get worse
The reason Boston has made so many Eastern Conference Finals is because like Detroit, Like Lebron's Heat n Cavs the East be Weak. Very top heavy and Boston is a very good 2nd Best. Or maybe 3rd.
They’re getting to the ECF almost every year, why break it up? Getting rid of either of them will not make the team better. They made the Finals once and ECF multiple times, so the issue is the players around them. Dumbest move to make is trading one of them. Teams wish they could make the ECF as many times as they did with their two top picks leading them before reaching 30.
His contract wouldn’t be hard to move, his contract looks like that because of the cap. Plus he’s jaylen brown, you’ll definitely get something for him. I just don’t think you should move him, it’s the pieces around them that needs to be figured out
Finally, a rational panel. Boston needs to leave that team alone. They're winning already.
0:53 Why would they rid of Jrue holiday when he just sigh an awful extension a few months ago. Idk about Gil sometimes. Go Celtics 🍀
Pritchard at the point.
Gilbert just be talking to be talking .
How does Keyon keep saying regular season success if they’re making it to the conference finals 5 out the last 7 years

Hold on you can’t call this current gen soft or the rules soft then say it’s unfair to hold Tatum accountable at this level, it’s honestly disrespectful to him to not. If they lose this year then same next season and end up breaking team up then what will people like Brandon say?

Pay attention to how they are speaking on the wolves vs celtics for the chip as if dallas and Indiana have already been eliminated. I guarantee if luka and the mavs win, every single media channel will be talking about what the wolves coulda done better to win rather than giving dallas credit. They did it the last 2 series against the clippers and the thunder. They hate and act clueless ehrn its really quite simple, Luka is the best playerr in the 2024 playoffs, and he is definitely the true MVP, but nobody will give him credit for either
If the Celtics and Wolves match up in the finals, who’s the favorite?
First game it took them OT to beat the Pacers. Not a great sign.
If Dallas wins. Celtics will win a chip. It's all bout matchups. Celtics in my opinion match up very well wit the mavs Drew on luka wit som3 help at times. JB on kyrie. PG Washington on tatum. Which is BBQ chix. And porz and Big Al on lively and (forgot name big guy from wizards) I just think celtics are more setup to guard mavs then anyone else. Cause of there lengh at guard and wings. If Minnesota wins then they will win the chip. Straight up. Cause porzingus will be healthy by the finals. Cause they would be dumb to bring him in the ECF. We got this series wit out tha unicorn. But wit a healthy unicorn in the middle, Boston absolutely will beat the mavs. Celtics in 6. If they have play Minnesota minn then I'm sayin them in 6
