Garnett Likely To Miss Playoffs. Sigh. Cue the Duckboats.
In an interview this morning on Boston sports radio station WEEI, Celtics coach Doc Rivers said it was likely that Kevin Garnett would not be available to play at all in the playoffs.
“After today there’s no way he can play,” said Rivers, who left open the possibility his star could return at some point in the postseason but was not optimistic.
An NBA source confirmed to the Globe this morning that Garnett was only about 70 percent healed from the knee injury, which occured during a Feb. 19 game in Utah, and that the Celtics All-Star would likely miss the entire postseason.
There are two ways to look at this. One, the Celtics are screwed and LeBron is going to stroll to the NBA Finals.
If that’s what you think, you’re visiting the wrong website. That’s called “rational thinking” and we simply don’t subscribe to that loser frame of mind here at the Stool. Sure, the Celtics missing a 45-time All Star and reigning Defensive Player of the Year looks like a serious blow to the chances of repeating as champions. And that makes sense if you’re someone who perpetually looks at the world through shit-colored glasses.
The second scenario is that Big Baby and Leon Powe replicate KG’s numbers and intensity and Paul Pierce, Ray Allen and Rajon Rondo put on an offensive show every night until the rest of the NBA begs for mercy. I’m going with that scenario and why the f*ck not? This isn’t 1999- stop crying in your Cheerios, Boston, and expect to f*cking win.
So, where is your head at? Vote 1 for “I’m a pussy and literally crying in my Cheerios about KG’s injury” or 10 for “This is gonna make the Duck Boat Parade that much sweeter.”

DONE! Bobcats are going to take it!….shit! we didn’t even make the playoffs…
Nice to see Lindall back posting. But a few things have changed. You can write the word Fuck now on BSS and not F*ck. This is not a Charlie Brown comic you %$@*!
This is so much better than an EP post.
Sorry, but…
I’m a pussy and literally crying in my Cheerios about KG’s injury
Now I know why those tickets were $40.
you should be fired you tool
Who the f*ck is Mike Lindall??
I could give a shit about the NBA.
Whatever.

you are a pussy
but you hate to see the great one sidelined for the playoffs… but you should all be glad be because now when the celts are bounced out in the 1st round you’ll have a cop out
FUCK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
The celtics are still a hell of a team, big baby is legit.
granted Washington sucks, but our second unit beat them last night. It will take a lot of things to go our way to get by Cleveland. Including getting calls from the refs,
BUT (a BIG SERENA WILLIAMS ASS BUTT)
“We ain’t dead yet, motherfuckers!”
Boston doesnt get sad they just get even, and paul pierce will show that when he goes off for 40 points a game this playoffs, make sure BU cleaned up their mess then cue the motherfuckin duckboats
Well thats just fucking great
TRUTH
I guess there is one thing to be excited about…..
another “REVENGE” t-shirt available next fall, this time, Celtic themed
yessssssssssssssssss
What the fuck is a Mike Lindall?
Mikey, you forgot to credit ESPN for the story.
Are you trying to get the stool shut down for plagarism the minute EP leaves the country?
Act like you been here before.
Yeah, this fucking blows, but atleast it will be fun watching the KG-less C’s scrap into the second round, maybe beyond.
I’d also like to hear a little bit more info about what exactly is fucking wrong with him and how to fix it.
I believe “Lindell” is Hebrew for Manzo
Let the “We would have won with KG” posts and excuses start. What is gonna happen to this dynasty???
Who cares?
Go Bruins
Its not the greatest news but they were still a 60 win team with him missing almost half the season. First couple of rounds may be a struggle but their going to need superman performance for Pierce, Allen and Rondo and some kind balls from Perk if they have a chance against Cleveland or LA… God knows that Stern and the NBA will do everything possible with the refs controlling those games just to screw with the celts. It’s Varejao’s year and all…
Muahahahaha. New T-Shit idea:
“We have another excuse!”
Stall the duckboats. No way in hell they’re getting by the Cavs and the Refs now (should be the name of the entire team like the Heat and the Refs from a few years back). The injury has to be much more serious than anyone is letting on. A 70% KG playing limited minutes a game is better than no KG at all ever right? And are we to assume KG won’t ever be on the sidelines to provide moral support to his troops because he gets too sick to be that close to the court and unable to play? It’s a wrap, Shaw’s has Kleenex boxes for 99 cents.
Stern would absolutely love a Lebron/Kobe finals and no KG will make that scenario a cakewalk.
SUCK MT 8==o
Not to worry….the Celts signed Stephon Marbury. Time for that investment to pay dividends. I have to admit I am a NY Knick fan…..but bad karma follows that douche bag around (as well it should). Too bad, KG is hurt….woulda liked to see the Celts go in with all their bullets.
So wait, all this time you’ve been praising Garnett’s incredible intensity, and now you’re saying Powe and Big Baby can just replicate it?? No way. I know you don’t want to hear this, and I suspect you already know it, but the Celtics are done.
“who cares, go bruins”
i now hope your irrelevant bruins get swept, you piece of shit faggot.
Cue the duckboats? for what? fucking idiot
Hockeys gay
Go canadiens
faggot
Can we get something new up on the stool? you guys suck!
Akrobatik, WTF are you talking bout? this blog’s updated almost every hour…
you suck!
Can’t believe I didn’t think of a new Stool Shirt logo:
“1 N Done”
Hockey is gay. So you are telling me that you would rather see rondo make a layup and get fouled for a slap on the wrist. Or paul pierce flop like a pussy. or would you rather see Looooooochhhhhhhhh tryin to rip of a canadiens head… basketball= cry baby, pussys
