This whole run thru the East is gonna be nothing but oh they were supposed to beat those teams give credit when credit is due just like next series it’s gonna be this same deal no credit at all given to the Celtics
Krit stap pazingis
Keep calling DWhite a role player. He’s just getting started. He wants it!
Believe it or not the heat had the best chance in the east to beat Boston
The Celtics should steam roll through the east because the east is really weak rn. Even weaker than usual. But they will eventually collapse.
Tatum scored only 16 points 😂😂😂 Celtic suck
Bro Kendrick speaks for clicks
Dude is talking about Denver. That’s like a month from now. We could easily get to the finals without him and he’d be fine by then. The F is this dude talking about
derrick white is the most important player on the celtics.
tyler herro went missing
Perk is an Idiot
LOL the game 5 comment. Duh…in othet breaking news: the sky is blue.😅
Celtics shoulda kept Rozier.
7:35 Do whatever it takes to get a win huh? How about not getting yourself disqualified for game 7 in the NBA Finals against the Lakers in 2010? Maybe you shoulda done whatever it took to win then.
Ain’t believing nothing Kendrick’s Perkins talking about he picked Lakers to beat the nuggets always throwing shade on somebody team but Go Celtics
Coach Spo is one of the best. Class act coach. Its just too many injuries for Miami. Comeback strong next season. Lets go Celtics!
No celtics fan was actually thinking perk was gonna not hate on the Celtics
With or without KP Celtics gonna win the title,they got LUKE to fill the void, Perkins youre wrong dude
Well Heat fans y'all wanted us in the playoffs…be careful what you wish for because you just might get it and y'all got it!!! We beat y'all in 5 games and now Boston we face either Orlando or Cleveland in the next round!!!
I actually agree with Perk for the first time ever.
Hey Bam, ' Who's your Daddy? '
Thumbs down for paying Kendrick Perkins to talk about basketball on TV.
Perk actually thinks we gaf what he says??? Sorry Perk we been kicked u off the bus stay over there we don’t want your praise
Having players who play hard like Jrue Holiday & Derrick White is such a blessing.
Hahaha perk!
he said what i was thinking about skinnt perk lol
Did Perkins say Jokic was the best player? Thought it was racist that he was an MVP. Perk is as big a joke as ESPN itself
Perk is the most ridiculous "analyst" Bro lol. I want that punching bag Charles and Shaq had
🔥
Yet shows like first take and NBA today only talks about the Celtics when they lose or when something bad happens.
People act like the Celtics are a super team because of their record, but actually, the Suns and Clippers are.
Perk Lowkey a hater lol
I secretly think Perk’s beard has become a malignant tumor and is affecting his brain
Perk is such a hater. You suck so bad.
Derrick White needs some credit he came alive the last 2 games
Spo STFU… These guys would not beat a healthy Miami ..
Sirry to remind you that there are two teams in the east with or kwithout porzingas are the magic and cavaliers who can beat the celtics period now got to wait to talk celtics or any other team to advance lucky for the celtics that cavs and magic one of the two will be out
Oh yeah
Bam looked cooked in pre game 😂
Oh man the Celtics feeling themselves now
Good job Celtics…however Miami is the weakest team in the east…..things will get tough ahead and Celtics especially the Js need to elevate their play otherwise I see big troubles ahead especially with KP out for a few weeks hopefully
Dispite winning their games by 10 or even 30 or more we are trying to find problems with the celtics when they did what they were supposed to do
Fire perk
Perk is wrong. They aren’t supposed to do anything except win the series. Doesn’t matter in how many games. It’s the first to 4 wins. Perk is saying all this while he forgets his championship winning team beat the hawks in 7, the Cavs in 7. The hawks series they were supposed to sweep and they went 7 yet he talks about this current team that won in 5, as something that is wrong. Perk has zero self awareness.
Heat Culture, more like trash culture with trash team.
This win was not a big deal, it was fully expected.
So without KP we have NO CHANCE? 🤣🤣🤣🤣
I feel like this is disingenuous from Kendrick Perkins. While KP does provide a lot of defensive presents, Luke kornet is taller than Al horford and stronger than Porzingis. While we wait for kristaps porzingis to come back, I think Luke Kornet has shown that he is capable of filling those roles and Xavier Tillman senior is also here
No team in the East is ready for any of the teams in the West IMO, and I’m a Celtics fan.
I just can't stand Perkins and the hate for Celtics 🙄
