It is so sad how so many players on this team did not live up to the hype.... I am honestly disappointed.

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?

I feel like even with Udoka we relied heavy on the 3, but there was some serious flow to the offense.

The reliance of just making that the Celtics entire identity is a Mazzulla thing.

NBA needs a mercy rule

So what’s everybody watching on Netflix?
[quote=“dkb964”]156-1 Celtics are frauds when pressure is put on them. They would have been toast if Luka was not stupid enough to foul himself out. Enjoy this ONE finals win. There will never be another with the Js and the Celtics cant afford stacked team.[/quote]

Remember the days when the Garden was absolute FIRE and would be going berserk after a Avery Bradley dime of a pass to a backdoor cutting Kelly Olynyk for an easy layup?

Those teams were infinitely more fun to watch and root for, and I would gladly return to those days even if those teams had a tougher road to winning the championship.

The Chuck City Celtics are boring AF and generate none of those Garden exploding plays like the teams from the past. Blow this team up. I want a team I can root for again.

Never thought I'd see a Celtics team go out like this.

I swear he's been doing that all season, he looks like a shell of his former self. used to be one of my favorite players draining clutch shots and draining shots in general.. he looks like he can't even score any more.

Ahh well. I’ll just exert my basketball energy into hoping Tatum recovers well close to what he was. That is what the future will come down to in the end.

The effort is embarrassing but not shocking. I called it.
