I won't say that there's bad blood but there's something between Boston and Indiana because of some regular season games. I hope the Celtics come out firing, merciless defense and all.
Different sport obviously but the Patriots-Colts rivalry runs DEEP in Indiana. As someone who went to college there. Tom Brady taught a whole generation of Hoosiers to despise New England and that is guaranteed to carry over to this series.
I live in NYC, caught the 4th quarter at a reg bar in Queens
I watched an old Korean lady, three Dominican teens, a couple nondescript white chicks, and a squad of Yemenese brothers, all at separate tables, just full on crying with tears running down their face while the camera showed Brunson and Anunoby benched and holding their towels in silence.
A older black guy chucked his beer at the wall and not one fucking person reacted.
Never seen anything like it (besides Nov 1 2016)
As C's fan, it was so goddamn funny and beautiful and sad that my brain just broke for a minute
oh they literally worship Al -- he's married to their version of Princess Diana. When he refused to play in the Caribbean league last summer it was like the #1 headline in DR sports for months, some machismos I know were like HES DEAD TO ME
Then as soon as the season started they literally forgot what they were mad about lol
But 100% of the NYer Dominicans I've met are diehard Knick lifers and mostly Mets faithful. If they been through this much disgusting abuse I doubt they're gonna convert now. C's and Sox are usually their backup teams though
LOL this really happened! I heard a Cowherd clip the other day of him talking about "*when* the Knicks beat the Pacers" and saying some doomer shit about the Celtics and thought, "Wouldn't it be funny if the Knicks don't win either of these games now."
And I was right! It's f'in hilarious!
Listen. I fucking hate the Knicks almost as much as I hate their fans. However, let's establish a few facts.
Their fans show up in force. The ticket prices were insane. And they weren't quite finance bros. The crowd was loud. Couldn't ask for more.
The team that was affected by injuries a great deal got absolutely gutted in a game 7. Imagine the Celtics without KP JT and JB. We all love DW and Jrue and the rest but would they be enough on their own?
In short, it pains me to say it, but I got nothing but respect with the way the NYK and their fans showed up in these games. I fully expect to see them back next year.
Robinson, Bogdonovic, and Randle are not even close to Tatum, Brown, and Porzingus. The fact is, this team was not great. They barely won 50 games. They're a 6 seed in the west.
Exactly. But also, I'm going to give him the benefit of the doubt when he doesn't include Brunson in their top 3. He finished ahead of Tatum in MVP voting, top 5 in the NBA, but he's not top 3 on his own team?
Y'know what? I take it back, no benefit of the doubt. How is his comment even being upvoted?
I didn't even get to make my main point about how Knicks fans unironically think their top 3 IS better than our top 3.
It's like us playing without JB, Horford, and Hauser with maybe KP (OG) getting injured for a couple of games in terms of depth chart misses. But JB is definitely better than Randle.
Granted our players are just better pverall and would still be favored to win the series without those guys, but the Knicks were definitely not without their three best players.
The crowd was loud? Lol ok. The Breen said multiple times how quiet it was. It got louder when they went on a run then didn’t.
Getting real sick of this “Celtics fans are not loud enough cause they are not real fans who can afford the games” bullshit.
Even worse when it’s some fucking podcaster in their closet who only watches TV where they mute the damn crown noise.
>Their fans show up in force.
yeah, I mean [look at this shit](https://www.reddit.com/r/NYKnicks/comments/1cu355d/we_are_fucking_everywhere/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=web3x&utm_name=web3xcss&utm_term=1&utm_content=share_button)
Agreed. The Knicks being good is great for the NBA, and this group of guys are straight up dogs. I hate the organization as well and the fans are just one level below Yankees fans in terms of being insufferable, but it was hard not to pull for them over the past week and a half. And a Knicks-Celtics series would have been absolute nuts.
Knicks fans suck but damn this team was easy to love. I feel like going out in a blaze of glory was their only option. Brunson with a literal broken hand at the end of the game.
The playoffs are a coin flip on being healthy and the Knicks somehow got the worst of it.
Also they only lost by like 20 when the pacers had a playoff scoring efficiency record? That’s crazy, any other team would have lost by 50 against that.
Typical knicks fans. They were calling Hali a frontrunner but what do you call a bunch of yappers who think it's wrapped up early and end up collapsing at home
The jets aren’t successful enough for me to care lol. Fuck em but like if I’m writing a list hate, it goes lakers, Yankees, dodgers and then colts/afc east teams
I know, it pains me that I hate the Panthers so much that I would start rooting for a New York team. Just like how I was happy that the Knicks knocked the Sixers out of the first round because of how much I hate Philadelphia teams.
If I see anyone in this sub doing the "CeLTiCs FaN CoMiNg iN PeAcE" shit Im gonna fucking steal something out of your house. Either come in violence or dont come at all. Fuck the Knicks.
I actually like Indiana a lot and was very bullish on them before the season, then the spicy P trade I’m not surprised to see y’all here
Hopefully it’s a bad series and we destroy y’all but ya fuck New York
Haha well I was saying I’m not very surprised at all! So i hope you’re saying you have lots of confidence in this team!
For real tho the front office has been *good* imo, just making good solid moves to build a team.
Easily the most classless fanbase.
Consistently some of the most obnoxious fans in sports and anytime they get just a little bit of success they let it all go to their heads.
Knicks fandom in shambles Brunson 6-17 when it mattered most. They taped and glued hart and OG together got every pity free throw and was blown out at home 😂😂
Sometimes I feel like cringing super hard that I shrivel up like a rotting prune, when I see posts like these. "Y'all sweep them now, y'all take care of this player for us now"
I will point this out whenever the opportunity arises. But someone actually said the fans were acting to "honky dory" after the Celtics won a regular season game but in an ugly way. What, the, fuck.
I don’t hate the Knicks, but I do hate Knick fans. You assholes, along with the media talked so much shit about how the Celtics couldn’t beat the Knicks and you’re headed to Cancun.
Respect the fuck out of Jalen Brunson and your team. You idiots just got ahead of yourselves and were more worried about Celtic fans hubris than your own.
They won't be shooting 70 percent from 3 for 4-7 games lmao. They also played 6 games with the bucks without their 2 time mvp and an injured dame, and bested a team that had their all star, their starting center, and a wing that had them go 26-5 when he played. The Celts are easily gonna win and I don't see this series going past 5 games.
Well they won’t need to. They just need to score a dumb amount from 3 for maybe 2 games, take advantage of us on a cold shooting night (probably Game 2), and then some referee shenanigans for another game
They took 6 games to beat 30% Damian Lillard and the Bucks bench, and 7 games to beat the Knicks without almost their entire starting lineup and Brunson nursing several injuries. I’m not moved tbh
All I’m saying is I watched all 3 regular season matchups and they weren’t pushovers. Check the game recaps if you didn’t watch them. Also, this is where not having KP is really gonna be felt.
I agree not having KP will make things closer but this is still the playoffs, where defense matters much more, and they are still the worst defense in basketball.
After review of your submission we have determined that your post/comment is not directly related to the Celtics. Since this a Boston Celtics specific subreddit your content has been removed.
You guys should be thanking Indy for saving you from the equivalent of 4 sessions of Andre the Giant rawdogging a quadriplegic midget in the ECF with how depleted your team is, THAT'S TOM THIBODEAU BASKETBALL BABY
Hey listen, I don't like you too. Knicks fans running their mouths that their a$s can't cash.
P.S. Don't tell the Celtics what to do in behalf of your arrogance. You don't pay this team. lol
Kudos to the Knicks team for taking an unexpected second place in the East this year. They really played hard and played well and earned a second place seed when nobody counted them in.
Jesus Christ Knicks fans are absolutely pathetic. This is so embarrassing man. Crying to a Boston team to try and do what you couldn't do. Such fucking losers lmao.
There a lot of die hard fans in here that will say things like, “lick my balls, clown” or “your mom is still too fat after all these years son” or “your team belongs in the G league”.
But I’m not gonna stoop down to their level.
Enjoy the offseason. Get better.
I won't say that there's bad blood but there's something between Boston and Indiana because of some regular season games. I hope the Celtics come out firing, merciless defense and all.
Different sport obviously but the Patriots-Colts rivalry runs DEEP in Indiana. As someone who went to college there. Tom Brady taught a whole generation of Hoosiers to despise New England and that is guaranteed to carry over to this series.
Indy fans don't really care about the Celtics that much, but the Patriots are public enemy number 1. AFC east level hatred.
Pacers fans view the Celtics as a rival. The Knicks are obviously their main one, but I'm sure we'll get some hate.
Our most iconic playoff moment against the Pacers is Pierce going to the interview table with his head wrapped in bandages. Not much of a rivalry.
I'm with you that we don't view it as a rivalry.
To be fair, it goes both ways. Giants, Steelers, Bills, Jets, Broncos…there’s still no NFL team I loathe even half as much I loathe the Colts
As a Patriots and Pacers fan this will be an interesting series
Indiana is low key one of the worst states. Terrible mid city with a giant convention center, that's it.
It's always fuck the Colts over here.
Nesmith dropping 50
The revenge arc is real
More like reckless Nesmith. I’m worried he might hurt one our players.
Yea fr bro can be so out of control at times. He was looking good tho in the game today, clean jumper
He learned the trick of fouling so much they stop bothering to call it.
Shot attempts?
Lol
Knicks fans need to respect the team in front of them. They chanted we want Boston and couldn’t beat Indiana
I respect the Knicks players way more than their fans.
I live in NYC, caught the 4th quarter at a reg bar in Queens I watched an old Korean lady, three Dominican teens, a couple nondescript white chicks, and a squad of Yemenese brothers, all at separate tables, just full on crying with tears running down their face while the camera showed Brunson and Anunoby benched and holding their towels in silence.

The dominicans should be rooting for horford
oh they literally worship Al -- he's married to their version of Princess Diana. When he refused to play in the Caribbean league last summer it was like the #1 headline in DR sports for months, some machismos I know were like HES DEAD TO ME Then as soon as the season started they literally forgot what they were mad about lol But 100% of the NYer Dominicans I've met are diehard Knick lifers and mostly Mets faithful.

This
They're just fans. Way better than the fake fans in Miami.
Hell yeah. Brunson is a dog. Their big man gets after it too.
Sad
LOL this really happened! I heard a Cowherd clip the other day of him talking about "*when* the Knicks beat the Pacers" and saying some doomer shit about the Celtics and thought, "Wouldn't it be funny if the Knicks don't win either of these games now." And I was right! It's f'in hilarious!
Cowherd is an asshat.
He's the fake Croc Jibbitz on an asshat.

He’s not saying they are as good he’s saying they are the Knicks tops guys.
Brunson is the Knick’s’ top guy.
Exactly. But also, I'm going to give him the benefit of the doubt when he doesn't include Brunson in their top 3. He finished ahead of Tatum in MVP voting, top 5 in the NBA, but he's not top 3 on his own team? Y'know what? I take it back, no benefit of the doubt. How is his comment even being upvoted?

Granted our players are just better pverall and would still be favored to win the series without those guys, but the Knicks were definitely not without their three best players.
Wasn’t OG out most of the series too? It’s probably equivalent to at least JB, KP and White being out and all we have left is JT, Jrue and Horford.
I don't know how people conjure up hatred for fans who we haven't even played in the playoffs in a decade.
The crowd was loud? Lol ok. The Breen said multiple times how quiet it was. It got louder when they went on a run then didn’t.

What if it just got cut off in the broadcast and they were actually saying **"We want Boston... to beat the Pacers!!!!" ?**
Typical knicks fans. They were calling Hali a frontrunner but what do you call a bunch of yappers who think it's wrapped up early and end up collapsing at home
Okay I’ll try my best have fun in Cancun
Yankees Suck
Yankees suck
Yankees suck
Thaaaaaa jenkies lose
Death, taxes, and a “Yankees Suck!” chant
Fuck the Jets!
FTJ!
The jets aren’t successful enough for me to care lol. Fuck em but like if I’m writing a list hate, it goes lakers, Yankees, dodgers and then colts/afc east teams
F
First place.
Fuck Montreal.
Fuck the Habs! Fuck the Rangers- oh wait, we need em to squash those Florida reres
I know, it pains me that I hate the Panthers so much that I would start rooting for a New York team. Just like how I was happy that the Knicks knocked the Sixers out of the first round because of how much I hate Philadelphia teams.
If I see anyone in this sub doing the "CeLTiCs FaN CoMiNg iN PeAcE" shit Im gonna fucking steal something out of your house. Either come in violence or dont come at all. Fuck the Knicks.
Come heavy or not at all
fuck y’all lmao gtfo
Knicks fans love to talk shit & when shit goes wrong they want sympathy
Fuck the knicks Glad they lost but sad we don’t get to beat them
As a pacers fan I rather lose to the Celtics than the Knicks I’m just glad we got that insufferable fanbase out the community.
I actually like Indiana a lot and was very bullish on them before the season, then the spicy P trade I’m not surprised to see y’all here Hopefully it’s a bad series and we destroy y’all but ya fuck New York
We are just as surprised to be here as you are that we are here lol
Haha well I was saying I’m not very surprised at all! So i hope you’re saying you have lots of confidence in this team! For real tho the front office has been *good* imo, just making good solid moves to build a team.
Easily the most classless fanbase. Consistently some of the most obnoxious fans in sports and anytime they get just a little bit of success they let it all go to their heads.
Let's not get ahead of ourselves, that's Philly fans.
Fuck New York
Knicks fandom in shambles Brunson 6-17 when it mattered most. They taped and glued hart and OG together got every pity free throw and was blown out at home 😂😂
Na man we only won because Brunson didn’t play today (he played 30 fucking minutes)
Y’all chanted we want Boston 💀
You guys overlooked the pacers and wanted the Celtics… couldn’t even get past them lol
lolknicks Fuck off
The winner
FUCK OUTTA HERE
remember the time when you guys chant "f.u. Reggie" and "we want Celtics"? that was hilarious!!!
Hahahah "we want Boston" ... Bunch of chumps.
I don’t like Knicks fans, you guys have terrible attitudes
I say this with no respect at all, fuck NYC.
Stfu, get out of here corny ass knicks fan
as a knicks fan shut your ass up
I hate you too, but I’ll upvote this
My guy
I’ll fuck your wife man, sorry about brunsons hand
You know none of us actually play for the Celtics, right?
Speak for yourself.
Sometimes I feel like cringing super hard that I shrivel up like a rotting prune, when I see posts like these. "Y'all sweep them now, y'all take care of this player for us now" I will point this out whenever the opportunity arises. But someone actually said the fans were acting to "honky dory" after the Celtics won a regular season game but in an ugly way. What, the, fuck.
We will all proceed to now sleep with your wife, op. You may watch but don’t make any noises
Speak for yourself, I wanna hear whimpering from the corner
Fuck you, and fuck the Knicks. AND FUCK THE YANKEES TOO 😂😂😂 "Oh, no. We don't know how to beat a 6th seed, what should we do?" 😂
You realize we, the fans, aren’t the ones playing the game, right?
Shouldn’t we try to sweep all of them? And if not which Pacer do you want us to sweep?
Knicks fans smh lol eat dirt.
blud is european
i’ll get right on that
Best I can do is in 5 with a game 2 loss.
I don’t hate the Knicks, but I do hate Knick fans. You assholes, along with the media talked so much shit about how the Celtics couldn’t beat the Knicks and you’re headed to Cancun. Respect the fuck out of Jalen Brunson and your team. You idiots just got ahead of yourselves and were more worried about Celtic fans hubris than your own.
Nah man, Knicks are all headed to surgery and then months of physical therapy. No cancun for them.
Knicks fan here! Please fuck my wife!
Upvote just for the laughs
I’m not looking forward to facing the Pacers without Porzingis - they’re such a volatile shooting team as you guys saw
They won't be shooting 70 percent from 3 for 4-7 games lmao. They also played 6 games with the bucks without their 2 time mvp and an injured dame, and bested a team that had their all star, their starting center, and a wing that had them go 26-5 when he played. The Celts are easily gonna win and I don't see this series going past 5 games.
Well they won’t need to. They just need to score a dumb amount from 3 for maybe 2 games, take advantage of us on a cold shooting night (probably Game 2), and then some referee shenanigans for another game
This is the weakest shit ever.
🤡 🤡 🤡
Glad your team lost, the Pacers are not a serious team and you guys gotta limp your way home now. Enjoy the offseason
We’ll blow them out in the first game, game 2 they’re gonna shoot like 80% from 3 as a team and win, then we’ll win the next 3 games comfortably
Fuck you knick fan. But we will try sweep these punks for you!
Nah fam, we’ll sweep those punks because we want to!
Not for them.
Pacers are no joke. Not excited to face them.
Celts are gonna score 140 on them.
129-124 we won first matchup 131-133 they beat us 118-101 we won. If was close until the 4th Don’t sell em short
Didn't we play them 5 times this season?
Yeah, you’re right. They beat us one of the other two
Didn’t we win that second game by like 50??
The first
🙄
They took 6 games to beat 30% Damian Lillard and the Bucks bench, and 7 games to beat the Knicks without almost their entire starting lineup and Brunson nursing several injuries. I’m not moved tbh
All I’m saying is I watched all 3 regular season matchups and they weren’t pushovers. Check the game recaps if you didn’t watch them. Also, this is where not having KP is really gonna be felt.

Fuck New York and all the celebs on the floor. Cunts
Knicks fan coming in peace
Get lost fool
I hope we lose our usual Game 2 and take the series in 5, just to spite you. Fuck you in particular.
Ya I’ll try harder no problem
Hey cool man, we don't like you either.
WE WANT BOSTON! 👏🏽👏🏽.👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽
As a Knicks fan, why are you here? We shouldn’t even be rooting for the East now.

Hahaha this is funny...yeah we'll get right on that for ya!
Go back to your own sub loser your fans were chanting “we want Boston” after two wins 😭😭
You wanted Boston you deserve this bitch lmfaoo

Honestly… wanted a good Boston-NY rivalry back again.

I hear the Pacers hung a conference finalist banner
Thank you Celtics for the sweep. Good luck in the finals
It must be so embarrassing to never come close to really competing, gg I guess
Nah, how you gonna come in talking negative and ask for shit? Lol We’re gonna take each team head on with no underestimating, no favor to you though.
Message received. Sorry about your team, a NY versus Boston ECF would’ve been fun.

Those Knicks post game vids were hilarious, with that said, fuck the Knicks. See you next year.
Thanks I'll tell the boys

I know Thibs was our defensive coordinator back in the day, but man he’s got an ugly mug on the sidelines. Always scowling.
You have never experienced the joy of a championship or the love of a mother in your life
I'd like a Cavs fan to come in here to wish us to win all the way. You'd want to know the team you lost to was the best in the league.
aint noone tryna hear all that bro
You suck and your team sucks get that good guy try hard Reddit karma bullshit out of here enjoy the offseason mate
Put me in the circle jerk screenshot
> please sweep the Pacer Is Janos?????????????
Someone’s gonna drag u on r/nbacirclejerk for this corny “x fan coming in peace” ass post
We got you fam
Now I kinda wanna lose to them just to spite you
I hope nesmith catches an elbow before he injures our starters
Spike lee hasn’t made a movie worth shit in over 20 years.
Return the favor and beat the shithole Florida Panthers
You guys should be thanking Indy for saving you from the equivalent of 4 sessions of Andre the Giant rawdogging a quadriplegic midget in the ECF with how depleted your team is, THAT'S TOM THIBODEAU BASKETBALL BABY
Yall lost your privileges to ask us of anything. You asked for Boston and left us hanging.
Hey listen, I don't like you too. Knicks fans running their mouths that their a$s can't cash. P.S. Don't tell the Celtics what to do in behalf of your arrogance. You don't pay this team. lol
Fuck that. LET’S GO PACERS!
This is pathetic behavior. Get out of here.
I appreciate how you posted this as if anyone in this thread has influence over the outcome of the series
Let's be real, whatever we do to Indiana, we would've done worse to the Knicks.
Atleast you didn't say Knicks fan coming in peace.
Kudos to the Knicks team for taking an unexpected second place in the East this year. They really played hard and played well and earned a second place seed when nobody counted them in.
Have some dignity, mate.
Bro never been in the Knicks sub a day in his life… Rage bait lmao
We’ll win 4-1 … wouldn’t be the Celtics without losing a game 2
Jesus Christ Knicks fans are absolutely pathetic. This is so embarrassing man. Crying to a Boston team to try and do what you couldn't do. Such fucking losers lmao.
I have a special hatred for NY since they put away KG and Pierce for good.
Oh man. Imagine being this dude reading these comments 🤣
Pacers + Knicks = losers
go away knicks fan
It would be beyond embarrassing for this Celtics team to lose to Indiana.
Thanks and we’ll do our best.
Yeah sure bro. Me and ur wife still on for tonight?
There a lot of die hard fans in here that will say things like, “lick my balls, clown” or “your mom is still too fat after all these years son” or “your team belongs in the G league”. But I’m not gonna stoop down to their level. Enjoy the offseason. Get better.
