He about to get finals mvp if he keeps it up. I expect him and the rest of the Celtics to play even better as each game passes. Mavs getting swept!!! Lol
4:43 holy cow what an amazingly tough but perfectly said and worded question that all/ most Boston fans are feeling. One of MANY reasons why Chris Foresburg is one of the bests I hope he stays with Boston media forever like Mike Gorman
King of NY? slow down there partner... sure he has a lot of talent but he still needs to put it all together, he still hasn't had a season like we think he could, in his whole career...that said, he is still young and for sure he still has the chance to realize all of that potential
First thing get JB to stop dribbling around and pass the ball. Next move JT around instead of jacking up shots from the same spot. Ball movement. Stale @ss offense
he's not 19 anymore and he's filling out. he's like Giannis except has a better vertical leap and also a way better shot. better shot blocking and timing aswell.
@@JimBrave-ri1oc Are you saying Porz is a better defender than Giannis and has better hops. Ya he has a better shot be he's not even in the same category as Giannis. 😂 OMG
@@unrulybill No he won't lol. Derrick White is one of the top 30 players in the league by impact metrics and graded out better than Jaylen in basically everything, Brogdon isn't even close.
This is a young old team they all have experience and are in their prime can't wait to see this team together I have a good feeling about this this can be the piece to take it all
I few years ago tell Boston need guy like KP and now its real. I am happy our countryman will play Boston. There in Latvia all is so happy KP join realy amazing basketball family like you guys in Boston. Lets go !!!
I love his candidness and that he's not trying to overly impress the media. Like he said, he has to prove himself to Boston on the court first, and have championship aspirations in mind
Hasn't played a game and the trade is already a win. Smart's massive, over-inflated ego and lack of maturity was always a barrier to a championship and it is clear this guy is a grown-up.
@@maddawg8164 I want a point guard who knows how to counter a zone defense. Pat Bev would bring hustle and grit, but can he pick apart any defense? I don't know. In next year's playoffs, I don't want to see the Celtics dominate in one game and then collapse in the next just because the opposing coach changes the opposing team's defensive scheme.
@jasonmarshall1205 porzingis is the key to breaking the zone imo. Esp if they double JT in the pick and roll he can shoot, fake it and drive. If there's a miss match he can post, was 2nd in post up efficacy behind Joker last year. I felt like our offense flowed better when dwhite was in the lineup and forgot he won player of the week when he started for a injured marcus and averaged 20 7 assist and 5 boards. And was all nba on defense. We shall see though with who else Brad adds
@@jasonmarshall1205KP will be our zone buster just like Jokic post up against Miami. Actually JT could do that as he was posting up againts Miami guards two years ago. He just abandoned it last year bcoz of Joe’s 3pt offense. I believe that Joe needs to improve the offense with multiple options and not just shooting 3s.
Okay please stop!!!! Nobody is hoping to go to Boston??? Celtic fans please at least be real. There's nothing you guys have to offer NBA players especially players that Know they are injury prone and can compete at an all-star level.... actually then again yea they do want that because they still get their money so never mind!!! As bad as it can get in Boston, this shit would not fly in New York and he knows that especially now with his injury concern. Great job front office giving up the heart and soul for bench player now at best!!!
I was a little unhinged when coach Mazzulla said something to the effect of throwing him down low but that's not KP's game. KP's game is out high and the foul line in and out. That makes Tatum and Brown and White and Pritchard and the rest of the team better. But just to play him down down low is not using his talents. But at least Brad Stevens knows the real deal and how best to use KP to win an NBA championship.
He actually had one of the most efficient post games in the NBA last year. He averaged 1.29 points per post up which is FIRST in the NBA last year above Jokic. He was also FIRST in point per close out. He really developed his game in Washington to become a REALLY efficient post up scorer and still was great at the 3. His advanced metrics for last season are fucking insane actually
@@Drizzlybear1 Everything you say is true. Plus, he's just as good when he gets the ball at the foul line but that spot is especially good for making the game easier for everyone else, and the same from out high 20-25 feet from from the basket in terms of Tatum and Brown coming around his screens so they can begin their offense closer to the basket. Although KP averaged 23.2 last year his FGA per game just 15.7. So Tatum and Brown's FGAs shout remain in the 20 or 21 FGA per game (not counting the 5 or six shots that draw fouls), but they'll be easier shots. I look forward to assists going up to the 5 or 6 per game. He knows the game and his a great team player.
Actually he was very effective in the paint and/or down low. Was a fixture at the free throw line shooting at almost 90%. KP thrives when the ball is moving.
I like what KP says about earning the respect of the fans. This is one of the toughest fanbases in the USA. But if you do earn that respect and love, it's forever. I guarantee you, KG or PP could walk into TD Garden with no announcement and fans would still go crazy because they'd recognize him and act like it was the day he hoisted Banner 17.
Soooo now we move Rob, right? One of these things is not like the others. Teams can win championships with sucky defenses. We can afford one that's good not great because we can embrace an offensive identity
Paying him is risky, but smart. If he was trying to put up shots in contract year it would be disaster. This way he should be content playing his role.
he's a post player that rebounds and blocks shots. he's 20 / 10 / 3 all day everyday. He's also moblie and versitile more than any other 7 footer in the NBA. He's also a spectacular creator and playmaker.
Welcome Porzingus! Awesome pickup. He respects this organization, he respects the Boston fans. He has the potential to get us to #18 and be a legendary Celtic.
Blah blah blah. Just win a chip with Tatum, Brown, Horford, Whyte, Brogdon, Time Lord,et al. Then sign long term. Grant Williams is a luxury. We'll see what happens.
@@icecreamforcrowhurst Sensitive much? Need a safe space? Pat on the head? You're a "real" fan amigo. Haha. Best of luck to Porz. Celtics need a heavy hand in the locker room.
What I hear from KP is that he has to earn the fans’ respect. I love that attitude esp after last year and how the season ended.
He did great job with this interview
Lol just get the fk out there and ball. He needs to earn the coaches and players respect.
He about to get finals mvp if he keeps it up. I expect him and the rest of the Celtics to play even better as each game passes. Mavs getting swept!!! Lol
i cant wait to see how they play with each other. I think all these guys are in the primes.

That would not be pretty basketball, since they haven't had enough time together.
Mom: u can watch season in July at World Cup
If we can replace Joe Mazzulla with another coach
4:43 holy cow what an amazingly tough but perfectly said and worded question that all/ most Boston fans are feeling. One of MANY reasons why Chris Foresburg is one of the bests I hope he stays with Boston media forever like Mike Gorman
The answer is better than the question. You’re asking a former all star how he’s going to replace a guy that’s never gonna be an all star
agreed
I have always loved this guy, hopefully we’ll be raising #8 to the rafters someday
3 more wins!!!! Celtics 3peating too watch! Maybe even get 4 chips in a row!
He’s no stranger to proving fans wrong . He went from being booed on draft night to king of ny.
King of NY? slow down there partner... sure he has a lot of talent but he still needs to put it all together, he still hasn't had a season like we think he could, in his whole career...that said, he is still young and for sure he still has the chance to realize all of that potential
He gonna be king of Boston if he keeps it up. Mavs will get swept!
I’m so excited for next season bro, we’re doing big things this year
If Kristaps Porzingis stay healthy in 2024 playoffs our team big chance get #18 banner 💪💪💪
Porzingis is tired of not playing in the playoffs he wants to taste how to be in a playoffs
Such a good guy, intelligent, skilled, he 110% deserves it just as the team deserves him! ☘
HE SAID GRD LETS GO THATS MY GUY CELTICS FAMILY ITS THE BEST💚💚💚💚💚
we need to be happy yall this is fr 2008 all over again... a new big comes to join established star (in this case stars)
LET'S DO THIS!!!! 😮
Need another star player to aquire during the off season trade deadline rumors
He does seem to have matured a ton. Hoping it works out
How much for the Prius?
Im just glad we finally have a good white guy to root for!!

Remember Gordon Hayward? Kemba? Since Big Al no luck with big name acquisitions.KP8 is potentially huge for us, but hope he stays healthy.

That “we had the green light to spend” was a complete lie.

Welcome KP can't wait to see you next season kill it!!!
hes going to look good in green!
I’m pumped if they can stay healthy Jesus a white Tatum brown KP RW3 lineup is gonna be scary scary
If Brogdon stays healthy he starts all day over D white but I agree. Going to be a fun season
@@unrulybill gotta get healthy before he xcan stay that way :) next 4-5 months gonna be interssting...

This guy is so well spoken
This is a young old team they all have experience and are in their prime can't wait to see this team together I have a good feeling about this this can be the piece to take it all
Now if JB could just learn how to dribble 🤔
@@icecreamforcrowhurstsince his first all star he went down in that aspect

Looking forward to the game between Latvia and the USA WORLD CUP starts Aug. 27 - September 15 Training camp opens about two weeks later
i always got the feeling the Celtics ownership wanted Kristaps for a long time.
Thats brad steven guy. The skill set is what brad wants
Raise that Banner 18 already! Our time is now.
need the season to tip off NOW
Great interview and Celtics gets better good luck for kp
I love his candidness and that he's not trying to overly impress the media. Like he said, he has to prove himself to Boston on the court first, and have championship aspirations in mind
THEY SHOUTED OUT GREENRUNSDEEP!! Yooo!! As a Twitter OG who’s no longer on there hearing that account get recognized is awesome!!

Now I wanna see KP fold himself into a Prius.
no way that KP8 will change his attraction from Mercedes to Toyota
I love the trade as much as I love Marcus Smart
Is that Rachel Maddows sister doing the interview?

he is second only to Jokic in field goal efficiency at the post
"Well if you need a 2016 Prius, come see me" 😅😅 That was witty
It’ll be fun to watch this evolve! Now we need to look for a “proper” coach!
Yeah....2016 Prius! Where do I sign up.

His jersey isn't for sale yet. I looked.

Gonna be fun to watch the celtics new big guy.
STAY HEALTHY AT THE WORLD CUP!
He will be fine,if we will be lucky we will get out of group(im Latvian) but seeing Canadas roster damn,thats a group of death..
If Dame doesn't go to Miami, Boston and the The Unicorn will take the East
Wells spoken
Not gon lie after this trade I hop on 2k and that pick and pop between JT/JB and KP was crazy hahaha
he's wide open for 3 or can shoot over anyone especially with a pump fake or post up on the switch
Kristaps is the best player in the League
Damm right you will have to prove it we lost our heart ❤️

Us Mavs wer excited too when he joined then his knees didnt hold up for more then 30 games peer year
thats now what happened. cuban didn't want post up offense so they traded him. KP was healthy everygame.
7'2
7-3

Marcus will be missed forever. But welcome kristaps. Definitely a huge improvement.
Barring some serious injuries, we should def be lifting number 18 this upcoming season. If not then than within the next couple seasons tops.
Soooo now we move Rob, right? One of these things is not like the others. Teams can win championships with sucky defenses. We can afford one that's good not great because we can embrace an offensive identity
Haven't heard anything about Jayson and Jaylen reaching out to Porzingis via text.

He's never missed a playoff game to injury. He was suspended 2 games for fighting after Doncic got punched.
