    Boston 18 championships vs the Rockets 2 champions!

    On February 8th, 2026, there is no way in HELL do the Boston Celtics suppose to be in 2nd place, even in the Eastern Conference with the current roster. Their best player is out and their 2nd best player has missed games and they traded away their PG, Jrue Holiday, and their starting center, Porzingas, to get under the payroll. Yet, as of today, here they set in 2nd place in the East.

    Whereas, the Rockets are barely hanging on to 4th place and just two games from 7th place. With only their 3rd option in FVV and a backup center out and the GM is saying, "THIS IS NOT OUR YR".

    BUT CHECKOUT THIS! Not only is he saying this is not our yr, he refuse to make a trade to TRY and make the team better!

    Not that Im hyping Boston but more of a reflection of the Rocket's FO to show the difference in the mentality of the two organizations. You do not get 18 Championships having the mentality that Stone has AND even if that is his thoughts, YOU DEFINITELY DON’T TELL YOUR FAN BASE.

    I am still shocked and I am even more surprised that Tillman has not fired him!

    Tilman doesn’t even care about this organization anymore

    he’s off doing other things

    Stone plays it safe because he knows he’s safe

    Anyone think he’s going anywhere or will even be in the hot seat if the Rockets get embarrassed in the 1st round?

    watch it be 2028 and Stone will still be talking about how he’s evaluating the young core or some BS like that

    Also have a better coach. Better front office. Play the modern game.

    See the way Mazzulla whooped Udoka’s ass with the Maine Celtics the other night?

    Ime Udoka ****ing that woman was the best thing to happen to the Celtics.

    They wouldn’t have that championship.
    They’d still be banging their head against the wall with (some combo of) Marcus Smart-Grant Williams-Robert Williams-Daniel Theis lineups
    Payton Pritchard never would’ve broke out
