Sick Of This Bullshit. Why Don't Big Name Players Want To Come To Boston??!?!?

[IBLEEDGREEN20]

is it the team chemistry?

is it the notion that the celtics give up personal stats for team success?

is it the idea that they play hard every night?

is it the idea that they are a defensive minded team?

is it the history, the titles, the legacy?

is it the hands on coach, who has proven to comfort players into the celtics system?

is it the fan base? loyal? too harsh?

is it weather in new england?

is it the fact they have no numbers for current players to use, because of all the hall of famers?

is it the idea that they are bullies?

Chris paul was running his mouth about not coming to boston.. why the hell not? too much pressure to succeed? man up bro. KG said he didn't want to come, and won a title and never looked back.

I love it when the celtics fly under the radar EVERY NBA season, and by the all star break its the same old 2 place in the east, first in the atlantic, plugging away. so why is that looked down at?

[Haymaker]

They'll have to share the ball and get used to NOT be the man.

[Haymaker]

Oh, and KG and Pierce are not exactly well liked around the league.

[Rake2204]

is it the fact they have no numbers for current players to use, because of all the hall of famers?

I'd go with this one. No one likes having to eschew their top five number choices only to settle for #87 or #114a.

[IBLEEDGREEN20]

and to clear the chris paul comment up.. people in new england laugh at these moron players for turning down playing for the greatest franchise in the history of basketball.

nobody really wants chris paul on the celtics anymore. we move on.

[Mavsfan31]

Cuz they're old and are in the East with teams like Miami, Chicago, NY to beat in the playoffs

[IBLEEDGREEN20]

I'd go with this one. No one likes having to eschew their top five number choices only to settle for #87 or #114a.

these are grown men. #growapair

There is no swag in Boston. Your historic franchise player was too white and stiff, hell even Scalabrine wanted out of there.

[IBLEEDGREEN20]

It's because Boston is a piece of shit of a sport town.

The only way they can win championships is by way of steroids, cheating or joining forces as a superteam. Big name stars want to win championships without having an asterisk to their rings.

Can't wait to see the Knicks put those senile old farts into retirement.

bro, we laugh at these comments. your clearly jealous. boston has has pro sports on lock for a while.

NFL

MLB

NBA

NHL

the decade of dominance must piss you off

[ballsohard247]

I've been wondering about this too. I don't believe it's because players can't be "the man" since PP, Ray and KG are entering different stages of their careers right now. You may have to sacrifice some stats but that always happens on a balanced team like the Celtics. Players who want big stats should stay on shitty teams where they can do whatever they want.

[EnoughSaid]

Shiit. Have you been to Boston? COLD AS HELL.

[IBLEEDGREEN20]

no swag, just titles, history, legacy, loyalty.

Because Boston sucks as a city

KG is a douche basket

Celtics are #2 to the Patriots right now

KG is a douche wad

Boston sucks

KG is a douche

[IBLEEDGREEN20]

doesn't it make you feel weird an entire section of the USA disagrees with you?
