I've been neutral on Brad in his time here, but the guy needs to go. He made some mediocre teams look good in the past, but he's doing the opposite with this squad.

I mean, what do we expect trotting out guys like ojeleye and Kanter and Wanamaker in an ECF game. Miami went out and got Crowder and Iggy at the deadline. Ainge didn’t make a solitary move. We need better players to compete. It’s pretty simple. Having no bench means the starters have to press for 48 minutes.

Stevens gives the players too much room to run the sets themselves, something I've always disagreed with.

I'm just over it. They are much hungrier, their coaching is 10x better, they are much more physical and aggressive.

Stevens seat about to get very very hot...

You get one challenge. You want to waste it on a call that probably isn't going to get overturned in the third quarter? Jesus. Is everyone **** on Spoelstra for wasting his in the second?

The referees has been poor in both games. Heat are getting big calls at key moments in the game. How many calls did the Heat get in the 3rd quarter compared to the Celtics?

It's the way we lose that pisses me off. How do we consistently grow double digits leads and blow them so consistently?!

Jaylen Brown hit a shot over Crowder in the 2nd and hasn't shot the ball since. Lolol

If they don’t come out going balls out to start the 4th, it’d be very telling.

7 years and I still don't see how crunching anyalytics helps us in times like this.

I really thought we had a genius for our head coach but turns out we have a man who hasn't figured out the nba game.
