Brandy Rodriguez+FollowShould Reggie Miller Have Ring-Chased?Reggie Miller played his entire career with the Pacers, retiring in 2005 at age 39 with one Finals appearance (2000 vs. Shaq’s Lakers). Two years later, the 2007-08 Celtics — who went on to win 66 games and the championship — reached out to him about joining the team. Miller admits he was interested but felt the notice was too short. At the time of his retirement, he was still productive: 15 PPG on 58 TS% (league average was 53%). Should Reggie have signed on for one last run at a ring? Or was staying loyal to Indiana the right call? #ReggieMiller #Pacers #Celtics #NBAHistory #NBALegends #Sports 333Share
Patty Mills+FollowHere's my hottake: Kevin Garnett is an overrated PFI hate to say it, but KG might be one of the most overrated power forwards ever. Before joining Boston, he was only stacking empty stats in Minnesota without winning. Safe to say that the Celtics saved his career. Without that 2008 championship run, he’d probably be remembered as another elite talent who couldn’t translate numbers into success. #NBA #HotTake #NBAUnpopularOpinion #KevinGarnett #Celtics #Timberwolves #Boston 51Share

Beth Holland+FollowJayson Tatum Eyes Shock Return This Season After rupturing his Achilles just 150 days ago, Jayson Tatum is already turning heads — literally. A video of him throwing down a two-handed dunk during training went viral, with fans amazed at his rapid recovery. According to Shams, Tatum has informed the Celtics that he wants to return later this season, signaling an incredibly fast comeback timeline for such a serious injury. If he does make it back, Boston could receive a massive boost heading into the postseason. Do you think Tatum should risk returning this soon? #JaysonTatum #Celtics #NBA #NBANews #InjuryUpdate #ComebackStronger #Sports 395Share
Patty Mills+FollowThe Trade That Keeps on Giving… to BostonBack in 2013, the Nets went all-in for Kevin Garnett, Paul Pierce, and Jason Terry, thinking they’d be title contenders. What they gave up? Three first-round picks (plus a swap) that turned into Jaylen Brown, Jayson Tatum, and the foundation of the Celtics’ current dynasty window. Brooklyn got one playoff series win out of it. Boston got a decade of contention. Some trades age like wine. This one aged like milk. #NBA #NBATrades #Celtics #Nets #JaylenBrown #JaysonTatum #KevinGarnett #PaulPierce #NBAHistory #TradeFail #Sports 955Share
