Series/season over.

New England sports teams never win easy. There are droughts spanning many years in our shared history, there have been brutal finals losses across every sport. Many of our best moments have emerged out of deep shame or heavy hardship. The Celtics have arguably felt this struggle and pain the most despite our franchise having the most championships of the major Boston sports.

I am a fan of Kyrie and our potential with him and another star, but he is gone and he was absolutely **** terrible this series. He basically quit on the team in this last game imo. There are lots of paths forward but they are all steps backwards from where we thought this team would be at this point. Hayward has been a disgrace to basketball. The rest of the team stepped it up at points but they deserve a ton of blame as well. Tatum’s 0/5 3pt game particularly.

Brad has been awful at managing personalities and making on court adjustments all year into the playoffs. I love Brad but I have said all year that I believe we have seriously overrated him. Many of these issues are on the coaching staff honestly.

None of this is good, but we will somehow power through it and do whatever we have to do to win a championship. Trust in Zarren. Trust in Ainge for now. Len Bias died for this team. Reggie Lewis died for this team. It took years after that but we eventually won it all again. This is a minor setback in comparison. It’s so **** hard to win it all in the NBA. Don’t blame our FO for any of this.

To the Bucks/Bucks fans: good game, great series. Giannis is a **** beast and destroyed our team’s collective will and ego by himself imo. He cannot be stopped offensively and his reach and defensive play usually stifled us into complete confusion. The team has definitely turned the corner and if Giannis makes another leap next year Milwaukee will be a **** serious force in the future. I’m not sure that the Raptors can beat them even though I’m a gigantic Kawhi stan.

This is obviously my last post game/VC of the season, it’s been real people—cheers, Parl, great work this year as usual.

Keep your head up, everyone.

**** the basketball gods.

Go Celtics.

Suck my dick.

Kyrie can't win without Lebron :lol:

Also

Worst season in the 2010's era imo, but we'll be fine. Cya all.

Fitting end to a trainwreck of a season. Don't let the door hit you on the way out, Kyrie.

I'm disappointed and relieved at the same time. I don't think I could've watched any more games of this team that's not really a team.

A few months ago I thought having so many draft picks was a waste. Now it looks like a blessing.

It's been real, people. The season started with a whimper and ended with another whimper. A detonation awaits.

While it’s disappointing and **** for an ending, it’s truly the ending that the 2018-2019 Celtics deserved.

Miserable team.

Love watching Kyrie play when he's zoned in but my God, I **** hate his personality. I hope I don't ever need to cheer for him again. Suck my dick!

As for the team congratulations. You might be the biggest waste of talent ever seen. To think this was the highest paid Celtics team ever...

I hope it hits so hard the handle sticks in his ass.

Game 5, same as the others. No shot making to ever give us a chance.

Let it go and move on

On to the draft lottery, draft, and free agency. The team will look much different next year, we all know that. Which way that goes is up in the air right now.

We shall see

I don't even like AOS threads but this should be one with me as the only option. I never thought this would happen even though I thought after game 1 it was gonna be a tough series. no one could have convinced me we would be backdoor swept even b4 this game. that was a pitiful disgrace.
