My vote: Game 7 of the 2010 NBA Finals. The refs screwed us, which makes it even more painful...

I'd have to agree.
Game 7 2010 NBA Finals.
If the Lakers fester in Lotteryville for next 10 years I'll feel better about it.

Game 7 of 2010 was painful. We were so close. Plus those Lakers cost me like a 1000 Tommy Points.

I still remember that game like it was yesterday, I had to drive to a friends place after the game and I eventually pulled over to the side of the the road because I was still that upset I couldn't drive...has to be by far my most painful sporting moment of my life.

1. Len Bias (franchise changing)
2. Tim Duncan ( franchise changing)
3. Reggie Lewis ( just plain sad)
1 and 3 cost me some tears.
2 cost me a TV.

April 29, 1973 NY Knicks 94 Boston Celtics 78
For you youngsters out there, the Celtics won 68 games during the regular season. During the eastern conference finals, John Havlicek hurt his shoulder and tried to play shooting left handed. The best Celtics team to not win a championship.

All was restored the following season when they won it all in 1974 so I don't see it as much of a disappointment

This was the first thing that came to mind for me.
1. Len Bias (franchise changing)
2. Tim Duncan ( franchise changing)
3. Reggie Lewis ( just plain sad)
1 and 3 cost me some tears.
2 cost me a TV.
I thought the thread title was referring to the worst game loss, but yeah, deaths are the worst. I was a kid when Len died, so I don't remember that, but I remember Reggie's death, which was horrible. Losing out on Duncan was less tragic but just as crippling for the team's long-term success.

Len Bias
Still get a lump in my throat :-\

Well, a missed title can never be regained, though I understand what you're saying. I suppose that if the Celtics ripped off 3 or 4 over the next decade, that would sort of "make up" for 2010. ;D

That would be sweet, but I have a feeling it won't happen. Lakers catch too many breaks.

Yeah, I've got a bad feeling they're going to be back in the playoffs in 1-2 years and in 3-5 years Stevens will be competing with Luke Walton for the title of "best coach in the NBA" (assuming Pops retires). They are probably getting a quality player ahead of us in the draft, will throw enough money at DeRozan to steal him from the Raptors, will make Ezeli their big man, and then Westbrook will probably join them next summer. And don't forget about Russell and Randle, who may yet develop into ballers particularly under the tutelage of Walton. Eek.

Obviously game 7 in 2010.
But also up there for me is game 7 vs. the Heat in 2012. Up by 7 at halftime, tied at the end of 3 before completely running out of gas. That was the last stand for the Big 3. Win that game and LeBron still might be looking for his first title.
-
Game 7 against Miami in 2012 might have been harder for me than 2010. That celts team fought with such grit that entire series and we were looking good through most of the game. That loss slammed shut the window. That was it, it was over.
-
4th quarter of G7 2010 hurt pretty bad.
-
That Game 7 in 2010....For the first 3 quarters---it was called evenly..Then AS SOON as the 4th starts (and the C's in the lead)---the Ticky Tack calls started against Boston, to get L.A. in the penalty quickly....Calls that were NOT being made earlier in the game.
If the game was called exactly the same for the entire game---Celtics Win it for sure...Extremely Crooked.

Yeah, this is my answer. Obviously game 7 of the Finals beats game 7 of the ECF, but I was so invested with that team. Prime Rondo, a resurgent KG, and AB breaking out made that underdog team so fun to watch. I still think we would've won it all that year if AB and Wilcox didn't go down late in the season/playoffs, let alone Green not playing the whole season and losing JO, too. Granted, we also benefited from a Rose injury, so it's hard to complain too much.
-
2013 loss to New York in Boston was pretty bad, too, because you just knew that was the end of KG and PP in Boston.
The game was a perfect representation of that team, too. Got down big, put on a HUGE comeback, then just didn't have enough to finish it off.

I remember that game so well.
I was extremely p---ed that they were losing big, so I turned off the TV, I couldn't stand it! (never before had I turned off a game while it was still going; I always watched till the end). I went outside, shot some hoops, then decided that I had cooled down enough. So I went back in and turned it on. They were so close, and I started watching again. They lost, and I realized that it was the end of our era. What I didn't realize was that I had essentially quit on the team. I didn't watch the comeback, I had lost hope beforehand.
It taught me to never give up on the team again. I've never since quit watching mid game.

2010 finals was more disappointing because they haven't won anything since 2008. Any new generations of Celtics who might win it all in the future no longer have connection to the 2009-2010 team.

Game 3 of 1987 Finals. Magic's baby hook to beat the Cs and take a commanding lead in the series. Still convinced if the Celtics had gotten Kareem's missed foul shot, the game was over and the C's would have won that series. Instead the rebound went off Boston, LA inbounded the ball, Magic hit the baby hook and Larry missed the three pointer with no time left. Game and basically series to LA. UGH!!!

Mychal Thompson went over McHale's back and knocked it out of bounds...Refs automatically gave the ball to L.A.----would be replay nowadays.....McHale went straight up to secure the ball---then the ball went flying out of bounds at a Horizontal angle.

All true. I was just summarizing and didnt want to relive it over again. Still that play was the most important in the game. If the Celtics got that rebound, the game was over and I think the Cs win that series in 7 maybe 6 games. That play changed the entire series.

Agreed...The Lakers have been so freaking lucky...our 1987 team was decimated with injuries and the death of Len Bias...C's should rightfully have at least 4 more Championships.

Lakers should be stripped of their 2002 title. And at least 11 of them belongs to Minnesota. So in reality, Los Angeles should only have like 5 titles.

It's actually the other way round, 5 of their titles were from the Minneapolis Lakers which I too have stated on this forum many times that they should be stricken from their record, OKC removed Seattle's title when they moved, 76ers don't recognise the Syracuse Nationals title and so it should be the same as the Lakers, they just want to artificially catch Boston.

'10 was an absolute stomach punch. The way that game took a turn for the worse in the 2nd half still irks me. I can't bring myself to watch any replay of that game.
I was only 6 years old for '87 so only have very vague recollections of that series. Certainly wasn't emotionally invested as I was in '10.
Losing the '02 ECF hurt me at the time. I was wrapping up my junior year at BC and living in Brighton for the summer. Had the playoff strip. The organization had been at rock bottom for such a long time that the whole '02 was one helluva rollercoaster. After pulling off that epic comeback in Game 3 to take a 2-1 series lead, I really thought we were going to see a Lakers-Celtics NBA Finals (admittedly, the C's would've gotten smoked). So losing the next 3 games in a row was a big stomach punch.

for me it was a tie between game 3 with that (expletive) hook shot and game 6 when it felt like the end of the C's dominance in the conference. C's didn't get back to the finals until 2008.
I'd put 2010 game 7 right after that.

Baby Hook was Game 4. Celtics won Game 3 of that series.
Yes, Game 4 in 1987. Lost by one to the Lakers. Still the toughest loss to me. Game was in Boston and would have tied the series 2-2.
From Wikipedia:
"What followed was another play for the ages. Magic set a pick on Kevin McHale, which almost opened up a lay-up for Worthy, but Dennis Johnson was able to switch over in time on help defense. However, that left McHale scrambling to guard Magic who just got open and received the inbounds pass near the left sideline. Twenty feet from the basket, Magic had the advantage on the post-defender McHale. Magic dribbled, hesitated to get McHale off-balance, then drove into the key. Magic then lofted a hook shot, which just cleared the fingertips of both McHale and Parish, and swished through the net giving the Lakers a 107-106 lead with only 2 seconds left.
The Celtics still had one last shot, Dennis inbounded the ball to Bird, who had broke to the corner of the basket after faking out Worthy by walking him up the court. Larry, to his surprise, found himself wide open behind the 3-point line right in front of the Lakers' bench. Bird caught the in bounds pass from Johnson, turned, and put up a fall-away jumper as time expired. The shot was off the mark, and the Boston crowd let out a collective groan as the Lakers' bench danced off the court to celebrate the hard-fought victory, which gave the Lakers a commanding 3-1 series lead."

Without a doubt. What a bunch of heart that 87 team had. I remember Kite coming up huge in game 3. Think we won 109-103. That's going off memory...that series, with all those injuries, still stings.

Len Bias. Just look at this guy. He looks like a stronger Michael Jordan.

I would go with game 7 2010. We looked great until Rasheed's back gave out. We couldn't defend LA's size without him.
The baby hook haunted me for years though.
-
The 1985 Lakers winning for the first time vs Boston and in the Garden would be my pick. However I can stomach Magic and the others on that team winning over us somewhat. I cannot take it that Kobe got one on us and in a game 7 that we played well in. So my vote is 2010 game 7.
I’d also like to throw in game one in 1993 Charlotte Hornets vs Celtics. Because I remember Reggie Lewis collapsing to the floor and like everyone else didn’t know that would be the last time he ever played for us.
-
Only lived for 23 years, so definitely Game 7 of 2010.
Game 7 of 2009 East Semis was pretty bad too, but that was when we were without KG and Leon Powe.
Game 6 of 2012 East Finals was terrible. We had that series in our hands, but our old age gave in.

I'm surprised we haven't seen a snarky comment like "our most painful loss was the 2016 NBA Draft" or something like that.

Pretty sure that was game four of the series, with the C's down 1-2 in the series already.
Even if the C's held serve and win that game, there was no way they beat L.A.on the road in that series. That was the best Laker team of the 80's and they had the Celtic's number that year, sweeping them during the regular season. The Celtics started looking old and banged-up in 87.
But why quibble about such minor details, I share the same misery as you :-\

My vote: Game 7 of the 2010 NBA Finals. The refs screwed us, which makes it even more painful...
The worst hose-job in that series came in game 3. classic David Stern. We had them on the ropes at home, the Lakers were in a visible panic, then the refs got pretty much our whole team in foul trouble. It was insane. But because the worst of it happened early in the game, people forget.
Pierce and KG with 5 fouls apiece. Vintage Rondo with 4, and Sheed with 4. Ray had just 2.
Bryant, Gasol, Artest, and Bynum, had 2 each. Odom had 4. And a lot of those Laker fouls came later, after the C's had been crippled in the first half.
Without that "David Stern Special," the series never makes it back to LA.
What a disgrace.
-
Tim Duncan sweepstakes.
Well if you're gonna go with that kind of interpretation of the question, I say the death of Reggie Lewis. Reggie was the heir-apparent to Bird.

2009 Finals, we were up, then the refs basically gave the title to the Lakers.

The Ray Allen fourth quarter phantom foul on Kobe shooting a three from the corner, late in the game . . . yeah, that was a back breaker. Especially, since replay showed Ray wasn't within six inches of him. Didn't touch a single part of Bryant. I would have been ejected and arrested for physically assaulting the officiating crew, if I was a player. What a disgrace that fourth quarter was....

Believe it or not, the Greg Oden sweepstakes caused me even more pain. I made an all day event out of than lottery drawing.
