The Knicks Nightmare Continues! R2G2 Loss vs NYK 5/7 (NYK leads 2-0)

[GrandTheftRondo]

Because he is a superstar and something more important, A CHAMPION. He may not be your favorite superstar, but he certainly is one in this league!

Anyway, Celtics and us fans will be counting on him for years to come, don’t have to tear him down on a Celtics fan board.

A Celtics superstar is Larry Bird.

There ain’t a chance in hell they lose either of those games with Larry out there instead of Tatum.

He would have lived on the FT line. He would have crashed the offence glass. He wouldn’t made dumb turnovers. He would have had poise.

The last time I felt good about Tatum in the playoffs was the 2020 bubble.

Idk if Tatum has great footspeed but he can post up and try and develop a fadeaway shot or something. He takes some horrible shots but these horrific shooting percentages clearly hurt him as player.

He has a good post game but for some reason resorts to low effort fadeaways.

There were times this year and particularly last year where he’d just bully people on the block.

Why we’ve seen none of that this series is mind boggling.

The funny thing is they have had some good looks as well from 3 but they have missed them all. They’re 25 out of 100 in 2 games. That’s 75 missed 3s in the first two games think about that. This series should be 1-1 right now at the very least. I am sick to my stomach because we have been the better team but just dumb low IQ basketball from this group. Never seen such lousy shooting in my life.

That's why I keep saying JT is still not a finished product.

I don't think JT's style of play will be the same if the coach is not Joe.

G'day blokes,

Watched the game from Straya.

The Knicks should be getting the brooms out. Celtics shoot 3's. They don't do much else well.

Knicks in 5.

See ya blokes.

Why are you here? Get ****.

Spoiler:

Ease up bloke, just checking in on your mental health.

Half of this forum must be on suicide watch.

This is not permitted. Warning for now, but there could be further action. Don’t use this language again!

[NYCelticsfan136]

I am sure Tatum is getting destroyed by fans on IG. Maybe they need to hit the road but again if this team doesn’t win a game it would be embarrassing. The Knicks are not this good for you to get swept. I am sorry.

[TexasMassacre]

The Knicks are not this good. I am sorry.

I don't know bloke, the results points to you being VERY wrong.

You don’t think the Celtics have helped their cause by gagging?

Cs were down 0-2 against Miami in 2020 and Cs lost that series as statistics dictated they would

Stats correctly will tell you all team’s overwhelmingly will lose when they shoot 30% or lower from 3pt land.

So just win Game 3 and it won’t make a difference statistically.

There is now immense pressure on the Celtics to overcome a 93% failure rate based on 70 years of NBA history.

The Cs can lose now because they are not winning this series anymore.

Fixed this for you

Dude we were down 0-3 against the heat with guys like gabe vincent, duncan robinson whooping our ass. Celtics choke away big leads for years now. Then it was Jimmy Buckets, now its brunson.

Honestly -- get lost.

Celtics in 6, I’ll see you all on May 16th on the post series thread

There's help out there if you need.

Hugs from me little mate xx

Editing my post?

That's not cool, man.

He’s 27.

With his lack of speed and explosion compared to some other wings his inability to get good shots will probably only get worse as he ages.

We’re not talking about a LeBron level bball iq and athlete who gets to 30 and unlocks this pick apart the defence with ease offence.

Tatum should be peaking now.

He is what he is essentially. A great all around guy who struggles at times badly with scoring and it gets really ugly particularly in clutch playoff moments.

[The Corey's]

The Jays have been horrendous.

They don't look like they know how to play the game.

Maybe it's the 3 years of bombs away indoctrination

Can you imagine how bad it's gonna get when we have to shed some of these players and we still have Joe out here coaching these guys up?

I thought they had a chance to win multiple titles and maybe even 3 . Looks like i migjt have been wrong.

I thought Brown was okay, the problem is Tatum was so bad that he essentially needed to have a huge game which I don’t think he has in him with his knee.

Reality is this teams success hinges on Tatum.

He can’t be shooting at 29% in a series. That’s just absurdly bad.

Is pierce a better athlete than him? I think pierce has more quickness. Idk who to compared Tatum to. There’s ways though to get inside the paint and maybe shoot a fadeaway.

[Jammer]

We were good enough to overcome Mazzulla last year. Not this year. He had NOTHING out there all night. Completely over his head.

He's a system coach with a great system and nothing to turn to when it's not working.

Except the TEAM is LEADERLESS. NO ONE AT THE CONTROLS. Kinda wiggling along, without a scheme for any scenario.

[BRUNiNHO91]

Spoiler:

Tarum, Tatum, Tatum.. sure he sucked, but the Celtics don’t have a head coach. We have an absolute **** dick face idiot out there. Getting his team in foul trouble to get Robinson out of the game is one of the most idiotic **** things I’ve ever seen in my life. Again he sits on a **** timeout..and do you know why? Because when he takes one, he does **** ALL with it..dude is quite possibly THE WORST ato coach the game has ever seen.

Ride his dick all you **** want, this team has now coughed up a SECOND championship because of this **** fraud. Getting swept to this trash ass team will be embarrassing asf. If the owners are trying to save money I hope they start by axing this **** useless clown

.

Watch your language! This is unnecessary! Do not try it again.
