Spoelstra with the clutch threes and that block at the buzzer are just too much for Stevens.

Just pathetic effort. Blew it twice in one game. Not that the refs have helped. Cause they're clearly not doing us any favors.

Stevens is not the guy to take the Celtics to the next level. He's shown this for a few years now. Regardless of if the Celtics win tonight or not

**** this team, jesus. Can't hold on to anything. Stevens has proven how limited he is. No creativity out there. No hustle. No effort. Just **** terrible basketball.

I'm officially done with Brad Stevens. He's a terrible pro coach and we have zero chance to beat the Heat with him at the helm. Heat win this series in 5 games max.

Miami just wanted this more. Just poor effort by the majority of the team all game.

This team is so unclutch. Literally they cannot get stops down the stretch.

That's all she wrote for this one, and possibly the series. All good, was expected. Some of us could see it in the 3rd.

That might not be an issue. Unless the Celtics stop playing like ninnies


Yeah right. What the hell is with all this tone policing?

What is this a dictatorship and we must lie at all times to praise the leader?

Puts his team in a better spot to win. Better at matchups.
