NBA Eastern Conf. Finals: Gm 2 – Celtics (0) vs Heat (1) – 7:00PM, Thur. 09/17/20

[K For Three]

I'll be back in the offseason. You all are the reason we used to laugh at the meltdowns raptors had after every loss. Guys. Want to schedule a board meeting about it to bitch about every player and coach. Gm. Ball boy. Whatever. You can't be happy watching one of these youngest teams in the playoffs paly tight games? That's not enough for you? Did you expect five prime lebron's to come out and win 120 to 50 every game? You make this board unreadable. Almost as unwatchable as the current nba product as a whole. So yeah. Long story short I'll go drink beer and cheer for as many games we have left while you all melt

LOL I pretty much come to real gm most of the time in recent months for the current affairs forum. Cave is active there too.

I read here but I just don't even bother at times anymore as much as I used to.

[Green89]

Dragic outscored everyone on the C's. Embarrassing.

[ConstableGeneva]

We really are Clippers East.

LOL no. Not even close. Clippers favored to win it all from the beginning. They have Kawhi and PG.

Only comparison is losing double-digit leads. Not 3-1 leads.

What the hell was that ATO play!

Save it! They might not get this opportunity again and they have choked. They have played like a bunch of pussies.

"blow up" a conference finals team. This board is kinda insufferable

Not as insufferable as the Celtics offense in the third.

[JHTruth]

I am just astounded Robert Williams didn't get a single min in this game.

I'm out on Brad Stevens.

[Saint Lazarus]

Goceltics please hit us with the aos it’s time or I’m making it

The story of the game was the 20 point win of Miami in the 3rd quarter. I always knew the Celtics will grind it out in the 4th but with a resilient and dangerous team like Miami, it won't be easy to take back the lead. Not surprised we would lose the 3rd quarter but at the very least, keep the margin to a bare minimum. They better make their reservations to Cancun now.

[Jaqua92]

Changes need to happen. 0-2 when it could have been 2-0 with 2 blowouts. Better team, weak execution and this shouldn't be surprise. Honestly, let's just hope Tatum doesn't want to play for another team.

Very concerned about Brad though. There's a personnel issue. Something is missing from this team's energy, something Brad can't provide.

And how can you hate Jimmy? They aren't rattled at ALL being down big in a game. That's the kind of leader that we don't have.

Seriously man, blow this team up or get a new coach

Playing like this in the Eastern Conference finals? what a **** joke

Seriously, blow it up? When we have two young stars who are only 23 and 22 and already playing in their 2nd and 3rd ECF? A bit of an overreaction, don't you think?

The Heat are just hungrier and have more experienced players. Jimmy, Crowder, Dragic, and Iguodala are all savvy veterans who can get it done in the clutch. Tatum and Brown are too young, Kemba's never gotten this far.

[pac213up]

Well it is over. Think people underestimated the Heat. Good balance, good coaching, good depth.

Celtics without Hayward just do not have enough. Stevens continues to shrink in the moment.

[Celtic Esquire]

Remember, this Heat team was the 5th seed until 2 things happen.

They got a superstar role player 3 and D guy in Crowder who's shooting 40% from 3 on like 8 3PA/g

Herro during the break developed into a better version of Kyle Kover in his prime.

That was it. No all-stars, no huge growth from guys already doing it.

And we have 0 bench.

THIS CAN HAPPEN FOR US. We have 6 picks this draft, Romeo needs to get healthy, Carsen Edwards needs to turn into Robinson and go form not playing his rookie year to being a STUD 3 point star.

Hell even getting a guy who is atheltic and can defend the Center spot would do so much for this team.

This is a bridge year for us.

CBS doesn’t play rookies unless you are a lotto pick. He can’t develop at all.

[TheMartian]

How many inbounds plays has Jimmy outhustled the player receiving the ball? Heat just wanted it more. Tatum played scared. Still shook after that Bam block?

[canman1971]

Uggh!!!


What's the percentage of coming back and winning, down 0-2?

Doesn't matter, because it's not happening. This team has no balls. Lots of talent, but lacking the junk. Maybe they are too young? Maybe it's BS? I have seen the worst basketball in an NBA semi-finals the last few minutes of the last 2 games. Oh well. Life goes on.

Well clippers choked hard but you can’t tell me this team hasn’t showned choking ability. They have.

[leper-con]

I still believe. That is all.
I still think we are the better team.

[ConstableGeneva]

Youth, immaturity, and inexperience across the board. Turnovers, complacency, and carelessness killed us.

And Stevens.

I did say across the board. Spo much more experienced coach than Brad.

[tlee324]

What makes it infuriating is how much they're getting beat on the hustle plays. One team is playing like they WANT IT, while the other is expecting it to be handed to them. Kudos to Miami for the huge punch in the mouth it's giving our team right now. Brad and Co. needs to raise it up, or they're going to be embarrassed.

[Ben-N1ce]

Heat are far more poised, run better stuff and have more shooting. They are beatable but the Celtics choked twice.
