Every writer had to wait a month to post negative Celtics article. Less than a week ago the Clippers lost a 21 pt lead in the 4th quarter and I didn’t see all this narrative.


Do you have the Clippers as a serious title contender? Do they have almost a decades long history of turtling in the fourth quarter to blow games they had controlled for 3 quarters?

Do you really even care? who cares what the pundits think. What you should care about is why the Celtics still haven't got over their fourth quarter lulls.

I challenged you on your stated claim that the team would have significantly fewer losses this season with you coaching, among other nonsense.

Your claim that Joe does nothing positive whatsoever is also absurd, especially since you tied it to innovation.


look, I cant help those who aren't willing to accept that calling timeouts is a fundamental requirement to doing your job.

I can watch the team fall apart for 8 straight minutes too at the fraction of the cost and give you the same results.

the NBA is a players league, coaching doesn't win you games, it loses you games.

It's crazy to me that giving Joe's historical record of not calling time outs, being called out for not calling time outs and losing games because he didn't call time outs that the Celtics would end the game with 2 timeouts in their pocket giving how the game was falling apart.

If anyone think Joe made the right call then they're not copiable for making informed opinions I care to hear.

Tatum was ice cold in the second half. He should never have been the one to take the last shot but as he has done so often in the past, he reverted to hero ball. He’s not clutch. He banked in a lucky 3 pointer against philly 2 years ago and that’s been it. We got fix this late game execution stuff fast

The posters that are having a meltdown need to realise we’ve been better in the clutch this season.
It’s not going to be prefect at times like last night but the good thing is the players & Joe can learn from this.

Regarding Joe, we’ve seen him better at timeouts this season. The regular season is a time for testing different things & we know that because Joe has said he’s trying to empower the players to have to think for themselves because he knows & we know you shouldn’t have to rely on a timeout to adjust. That’s the reason I’m not worried about Joe because I believe he will take the necessary timeouts in the playoffs.

I do agree that we probably need to change up the last shot possessions & I think incorporating KP would make life easier than just giving it to Tatum & letting him go ISO. Although let’s not act like every coach doesn’t usually just gives it to their best player to make the right play which is why the onus has to be on Tatum to be better in that situation which could mean a timely pass instead of always looking for the final shot.

Be here when Joe blows it in the playoffs.

Instead you're salty the media is making a big deal about one loss when they didn't have that same energy for the clippers. Weird take.

Just be here when Joe **** this team in a big game because hes afraid to call a time out because he doesn't have the answers.

Oh so when we win, none of it’s because of Joe but when we lose it’s all his fault right ?

How much credit does Doc Rivers get for the ‘08 title? That’s about the amount of credit Joe gets. Competent coach with an overwhelmingly talented roster

Now you get it.

Joe hasn't even accomplished the feat of getting this team to the finals which Ime did with a inferior roster.

Soon as we traded Smart I said this team was winning it all.

Coaching had nothing to do with that prediction.

Exactly. Doc almost coached that team out of the first round.

That's good enough for the Cs to win multiple championships with this roster.

Doc won #17.
Let’s wait for OJT Joe raising banner #18 before we start calling him competent. Right now he’s just Brad’s experiment.

You’ve just completely contradicted yourself. If Joe’s the deciding factor (like you say) then he has to be part of the reason why we won lol

Comparing Ime to Joe last year is such an unfair take & you know it. One guy had years of experience as an assistant for some of the best coaches & a full training camp, the other had no experience as a lead assistant &was got thrown into the deep end a week before training camp.

That's also true.

Joe is Brad's experiment.

It's Brad's system that Joe is running.

So if Joe wins a chip, that validates Brad's system.

Brad fell short as coach.

This is the next best thing for Brad.

But Brad should have hired a veteran coach to coach this championship caliber, but young, team.

Good coaching doesn't win games but bad coaching loses games.

Joe is a passenger.

I wouldn't even give him more credit than the Pritchards and Kornets of the world.
