Quick, here's a good opportunity to hear how great Joe is. Boston missed almost 50 3 pointers.. Can you imagine that?
2 things need to go.. my lack of spell check and Joe.. :nod:

Tatum absolutely shrunk in the moment. He'll never be a league or series MVP with no-shows down the stretch like this.

And Thibs took a gigantic dump all over Joe tonight.

Joe, Jaylen, Jayson and Kristaps need to really take some long hard looks in the mirror for various reasons. That was unacceptable.

Joe gets his plays from a Cracker Jack box.

Tatum has no balls.

Tired of Glasszingis. Him and Hauser need to go this offseason to shed salary.

Tatum was absolutely brutal in that second half with the turnovers and the jacked up 3s. He needs to take his head out of his ass.

Knicks were the better team tonight.

We missed a bunch of open threes, and took terrible shots down the stretch.

Oh and don’t even get me started on KP

I'm going to go out on a limb, and blame Mazzulla-the-Clown.
What did you think was going to happen, when you ran out of rotation players in a Game?

There's 15 Players on this Team.
Stop running your Starters and Rotation Men into the ground.

Absolutely brutal game especially being up by 20. Joe literally had no idea what the hell he was doing at the end of the game.

Add in the Celtics breaking the record for the most missed 3s and this was just an epic collapse

Zero reason why Boston should’ve ever lost this game

Well, by the look on his face he had been constipated for a while.

If all you practice is bomb 3s this is what happens.

No answers.

Joe had THREE out of time out plays to win or tie the game and all 3 of them were the worst play you've seen in 20 years.

Felt like most of our misses in the third were on good looks, then we overcompensated in the fourth and started throwing up awful looks.

Still confident we win the series, but now looking like a 6 or 7 game series.

44 points in the second half + OT. Historic offense

He's never available and even if he was tonight, is so timid in the paint, he wouldn't have made any difference.

Bad shooting games happen, but what Tatum did down the stretch is inexcusable. Stepback 3s against Robinson and KAT instead of blow bys. Step back 3 on Brunson instead of backing him down.

Joe has no counter to 3s not dropping except to shoot more 3s. I did not expect a sweep but this was an avoidedable loss with an avg NBA coach.
