The whole Inside the NBA show has gone to **** over the last few years.

They clown everybody. No reason to take it personal IMO. I mean, we lost be 50 tonight. This is just the TNT crew doing what they've always done (and what has gotten them multiple Emmy awards).

The show has gone way downhill when they added Shaq. Now they just shout over each other all show long. I feel bad for Ernie Johnson.

It is screaming over each other, laughing at nothing and "Back in my day..." Half the **** they say is completely incorrect. No idea who fact checks them, or if they just ignore that person, but the awards finalists show ranting was embarrassing.

Gotta play better. Not sure it changes result, but we got nothing in the tank after Wiz series and this playoff run. We are not talented enough, too small, not strong enough and look unprepared for these games.

Heinshon had a good point postgame about having only one day between series. I do t think it changes the dynamic of the series, but Celtics would have played better if they had 2-3 days to orient.

But, that's the sked. What ya gonna do?

I love Inside the NBA. Far better than it's NFL equivalents, for whatever it's worth. Kenny always has well-researched opinions, Barkley has a different perspective, EJ is always on point.

I do agree that Shaq is a weak link but I'm not missing it because of that.

Embarrassing. I don't ever want to see Gerald Green start a game again. And when the opposition is up 45 and still slinging threes, you put someone on the floor.

IT and Horford giving LITERALLY nothing. :banghead:

Offensively he was one of, if not the only bright spot in the 1st quarter before the tidal wave came through.

WTF, IT was 0-6. Disappearing act to say the least.

Markelle Fultz in on every Celtics players head

He's not talented enough to compete on a championship level.

Too limited physically.

Missed this game. Looks like everyone other than Jaylen missed this game as well.

We were always gunna get swept. Still wish we gave better effort. I'll take it though, given how well Brown has showed.

Need more Jaylen. Give me something to watch. Nothing else interesting except about the series. At least next year I know the roster is going to be a major overhaul.

Gotta say, been a big fan of this iteration of our team for the last few years, been frustrated at times, but ultimately thought we were a few moves away from competing, i.e. trading for butler/pg13 or adding Hayward and bringing in Zizic next season. I'm not trying to be reactionary here, but I gotta say, after these two games, even discounting this team just being physically and emotionally tired, I don't see how we compete with this squad barring bringing in two All-Stars, which A seems highly unlikely without giving up the farm, and even then I just am not sure we compete with the Cavs/Warriors.

Maybe I'm wrong, but I'm starting to see the light that we will need to move on from a good chunk of this team over the next two years rather than doubling down on them. Brown looks like the real deal and if Fultz is as good as advertised, then I think you gotta really consider building around them and waiting out the current Cavs and Warriors, painful to say because I really want to beat Lebron/Cavs and Curry/Warriors, not just wait them out.

Also I'm sad to say, cuz I really like him, but I just am finally starting to think that IT is not going to be part of equation because I just don't think you can surround him with enough in the next few years to be competitive on this level, we just got absolutely destroyed, absolute wake up call.

Somebody's emotional tonight.

I somehow wish IT would sit game 3 out instead of playing 60% with his hip injury. I think we'll have a better start with more defense in Smart, AB, Brown, Jae, and AL starting. Not a good lineup but i think this starters won't be blown out of the water on 1st Half.

I mean, can any game moving forward get any worse than game 2? If they played top notch and we stinked then it can't get any worse right?

Stevens is in over his head at this point.

Just give Jaylen the rock and let him run with it. The rest of the team is scared and they are ready to go fishing. It's just embarrassing at this point.
