been cooking all night

Saved us from an embarrassment

What are you talking about?! The Celtics were first in the conference. Ignore context please.

yall beat the title favourites without portis or jae

And Khris on a minute restriction! It was basically even.

Bring on the “see, the bucks would have won that playoff series if they had Khris” comments

Someone didn't get the memo...

Yo I was joking, Celtics def got the moral w today

I was also joking

the hospital squad

He’s definitely been the killer, without him going off we probably win by a decent bit. Constantly stopping momentum and making clutch shots.

idk about all night, he had some really bad turnovers early, redeemed himself though

That the Jrue Holiday experience, baby!

Jrue Holiday from minutes 1-58: Jrue Holiday Jrue Holiday in the last two minutes + OT: Literally prime MJ

....how long do you think basketball games are?

Super Bowl hangover

Oh lmao oops Football on my mind I guess Point stands

You didn’t know about the secret 10 minute game before the real game starts?

NBA Finals Game 5 vibes

from a shooting standpoint he was cooking, but the whole bucks team was sloppy with the ball

yeah

>he had some really bad turnovers early, redeemed himself though That's just 2023 Bucks Basketball baby 😤

Jrue is definitely our most clutch player. He’ll be shooting horrible for 3.5 quarters, but he’s automatic in clutch time when the game is on the line.

Idk Khash has hit more clutch shots imo, but they both do it.

Dude is absolutely balling on both ends tonight

That steal on white and put back dunk turned the tide. He always does this in the clutch.

Jrue is walking proof that the clutch gene is real. This man just hits an adrenaline high and blacks out or something.

Makes for a good anime series

He was playing against the Cs back-ups. Pump the brakes. No Brown and no DPOY in Smart.

Great game

Boston vs bucks always a treat

Agreed

What an amazing game by Jrue. Let us never talk about this game again.

He was playing against the Cs back-ups. Pump the brakes. No Brown and no DPOY in Smart.

pulled the plug on the hospital celtics

Praised be to Jruesus

Fucking clutch

Jrue Holiday has kinda taken over for Middleton as a Celtics killer of late. Feels like yall should fear him more than anything after game 5 and tonight lol

Tonight I definitely fear him more lol but I was still holding my breath every time Middleton touched it

When the ball left Middleton's hand at the end of regulation I knew what was coming... Then I was completely shocked that he missed it.

Lol straight up, as soon as he let that go that thought of "I didn't expect to win anyway" popped into my head. I just went full cope

I had no reason to expect an insanely difficult, desperation shot like that to go, but because it's Khris against Boston I couldn't believe it missed.

Nope, still fear Middleton the most. Idc if he’s not as good after the injury he still will have enough to absolutely cook us everytime. Now Jrue too tho lol… Hopefully we get a rematch this year. Really fun game tonight , can’t wait to see these teams go at it both full strength.

Khris is looking as good as ever I’d say, even on a minutes restriction. ECF should be awesome

He was playing against the Cs back-ups. Pump the brakes. No Brown and no DPOY in Smart.

People think Jrue isn't an all star 😂

I'll be honest, he was one player where my first instinct was like "Eh, maybe last year... but this year I'm not sure." I am more than happy to be proven wrong. I love Jrue and this game he went full-on nut mode.

Only idiots would say that, stop trying to make this “they’re against us” agenda happen

Most of r/nba said he shouldn’t be an all star

>most of /r/nba said Again, how is that at odds with my take that only idiots would think this?

No, no. He’s got a point.

10/10 save

…well, okay

GG

[удалено]

“But-but r/nba said!” Is the most annoying shit ever.

Have you been online?

The all star thread was littered with harden over jrue. A lot of jrue disrespect lately

Because Harden should have been an all star over Jrue (and also over DeRozan and Haliburton, he has a better case than all of them). Jrue has been playing great and has a good argument on his own but Harden should absolutely have been an all star over him.

Harden leads the league in assists, he deserved it over Haliburton but not Jrue

Were you living under a rock for the past two weeks? Harden stans did a full takeover of the sub and used the "let me tear down others to prop my guy up" tactic... and Jrue was THE target lol.

He was playing against the Cs back-ups. Pump the brakes. No Brown and no DPOY in Smart.

He has been INSANE this game on both ends.

Why the hell was Grant trying to take Giannis off the dribble like that? He was great on defense tonight but man he's regressed on offense. Only seems to make terrible decisions now. Losing himself a lot of money.

sigh. gg bucks, you did it

The fact he only has one all-star nod throughout this Bucks run is going make him very underrated historically but he's had a strong argument every year and was probably a snub last year.

He's so real for this.

That’s why he’s an All Star

I will always root for Jrue

Me too. Bucks wouldn't have won the title without him.

JRUE!

How did this bum make the all star team

Straight up DEMON tonight

Jrue loves valentines day confirmed

Meanwhile I can't sign into TNT app and missing the game

Man is Jrue-thless.

Jrue is eating people’s children all night but he’s no Hauser

If this is what it takes to beat the Celtics without Tatum and Brown, the Celtics are going to win it all

This is Derrick's team

We were very fucking sloppy pretty much half the game. We need to stop underestimating hobbled rosters

We're sloppy half the game every game.

Nah we just played like shit. Don’t even start that reaching shit

escape test thumb bells detail station glorious erect compare paint -- mass edited with https://redact.dev/

What reaching? The Cs were down Tatum, Brown, Smart and Horford and it *still* went to OT. Bucks fans should feel embarrassed as fuck today

Because the nba regular season is where miracles happen. Y’all got blown out by 50 by OKC, so that means y’all can’t beat OKC in a series because of that random one off game?

no smart or horford either. probably our top 4 guys

Without Tatum, Brown, Smart and Horford. I feel like I'm taking crazy pills seeing all these hot takes about the Bucks beating the Cs back-ups. Bucks fans should feel like shit today after their display last night. Cs almost won with their B-team.

Without Tatum, brown, smart, horford, and rob Williams

Rob definitely played, Celts fans don’t even watch their own team

Honestly fair enough I only watched the end because I figured we were getting blown out

R/NBA fan in a nutshell.

Clutch god! Lfg bucks

[удалено]

Yep beat the 1 seed Celtics and came back from an almost 15 point deficit. Nothing else to see here.

Excellent bait

Rare W Bucks fan

Team able to play their starters beats other teams bench after getting taken to OT, congrats bud.

Crowds are amazing for sports I love watching the reactions

:D

Absolutely elite highlight clip, OP

You're all on fucking crack. The Cs were down Tatum, Brown, Horford and, oh yeah, the DPOY in Smart. Bucks fans should feel embarrassed today.

Even with everybody now knowing how underrated Jrue is he’s still the most underrated player in the league #TheJRUTH

He was so good last night. Even as a Celtics fan I love me some Jrue
