This was ALWAYS the most likely outcome. The cinderella comeback was only going to happen in a hollywood movie. The series was lost when we lost both home games.

Let’s go out with some class.

Knick fans will be coming in to bask in the meltdown and this isn’t how we want to carry ourselves on this board.

Pacers are going to wax the Knicks next round if that’s any consolation here…

Love how Joe continues to allow Horford to get switched into Brunson. Has been a great strategy all series long

Turns out the answer to "Why do the Celtics not attack the rim more" is because our guys just aren't particularly good at it, especially when the Jays handles fail them. If Brad is going to retool the roster the way I expect him to this offseason, I'm begging him to find some guys who can actually threaten a team on the break.

Mazulla was and still an interim coach. He has no business wearing the Celtics logo. Last year was pure luck.

Horford is too old for regular rotation minutes. He's into the Blake Griffin on the C's part of his career. If Brad wants to bring him back, it's on the minimum.
KP, I hope we gets well, gets his health and endurance back. But he's nothing in his present state
Luke is fine regular season big who gives you some big moments here and there if he can catch the opponent by surprise
Derrick has been coached into a 10-20 3PTA player. If his 3-ball falling he's great, if it's not he doesn't do much. Brunson owned him this series
&
Coach Mazzulla has a strong belief in a system of basketball that a lot of find insulting
gonna be a long summer

but JT is likely to make a full recovery

maybe we'll end up with Cooper Flagg somehoe
it's tough to go out like with a whimper ... no matter the circumstances

The offense to night is four watch on the three point line while one tries to make a move

No point in firing a tank commander for a team that will likely be fighting for a Play-In spot.


Even if Joe’s gone. Does want the next coach running the same offense or is Joe solely responsible for Mazzula ball?

Literally nobody ran back with Brown. Embarrassing display for a team with their season on the line

What is this pathetic effort. McBride getting a putback with brown blocking but nobody running back? Derrick white, Jrue, and PP just go home with this sorry effort

Knicks could be up by 40 right now. Why they’re slowing it down is mind boggling.
