Kornet doesn't dive for the loose ball, gets blown by on the drive.

Why we never went to Queta at all in the series or even Craig
I look at Christian Braun 2022 in Denver and I would have tried to get Baylor Scheierman some playoff mins
but look, it's a moot point

Knicks played better. They deserve to win. It just sucks to lose the series and Tatum like we did.

Heck Nuggets went to Strawther and it worked for one game even after prior forgettable outings... You gotta try, they likely won't come thru, but 100% can't come thru if not allowed to try


AGREE. You have a 15 man roster full of NBA players.

TRY SOME STUFF

You don’t understand? The same ones who are doom casting tonight and enjoying the fact the Celtics are going to lose are the same ones who were beyond pissed they kept Brown over Marcus. Brown has been slammed on this board and scape goated for years.

I can’t even keep up with all their narratives and negativity.

Didn’t even stop last season until the final moment we actually won the title.

Just absurd being so negative like that.

This season has **** sucked. Awful to go down 3-1 and have Tatum tear his Achilles.

However, all the crazy statements about tonight’s game by said posters are just ludicrous.

Do they seriously think OKC, Denver etc wouldn’t suffer the same fate if Jokic or SGA suffered the same injury as Tatum?


If the Celtics had Denvers roster you’d have certain posters pining to trade Jokic for a top 3 pick.

We really did. Nobody looks great out there and the Celtics blew 2 massive home games with the worst performances of the season bricking open threes.

Oh well.

Wouldn’t have mattered.

Tatum’s Achilles doesn’t magically untear itself.

The fact that Queda was never even given a shot to play in this series is malpractice

Jrue might need to be traded but at least he's putting the ball on the floor and attacking.

I think there is peace because the Celts know the Knicks are better. They lost (will lose), plain and simple. Further, Tatum may recover offensively but defensively, he won't. It's going to be a long few years for the Celts -- and their fans deserve it!

First of all, it won't be a long few years. Book it. We aren't the **** Knicks. We actually have a competent FO, GM who knows how to build a winning team.

You're going to get molly whopped by the Pacers and you deserve it.

And only way to even make them sweat is to hit 3s.

Here i thought this team would compete for more titles after winning the title last year and it all went down hill in one playoff series. The tatum injury really killed everything.

Give Mazzulla this years Wizards roster and he won’t get them to more than 9 wins.

I don’t understand how a $300M player can dribble this bad. Dribbling and free throws are things you can improve with practice. If you are bad at these, it means you are lazy.

@GrandTheftRondo - U mad? Kick rocks!
@ GreenBloodedC - I'm watching the Celts give up. I hope they keep chucking 3s. Also, Factcheck - I'm 64 and have seen them win 2 championships.

YES.
And after winning 4-1 against Orlando avg 32 3pt attempts per game. And then come out and chuck 100 3PTA in games 1&2 like the knicks were so inferior you didnt even need to try ... game 1 grossest Celtics playoff game since 2019 Kyrie quit or John Carroll Paul Pierce chin jock strap... absolute joke to go down 0-2 HOW WE DID

I only commentate on things as they happen.


If that’s the case tonight is a weird night for you to bring up Tatum



You brought up Tatum...
