Well ****, you guys! That sucked very much.

The energy was there but we weren't sharp or smart enough tonight and didn't make shots. JT's ankle injury on the first possession of the game was not a good omen.

I don't know man I'm a dumpster fire of emotions lol. Mad at the guys for losing a series they should have won. Proud of them for fighting back from 0-3. Happy we didn't give up after that awful Game 3, but now kinda feeling like we lost the series twice. Perplexed that our season came to an end at the hands of Caleb Martin (like seriously what). Disappointed we lost but relieved I can stop having numerous heart attacks. It's going to take some time to process what happened here. For now I need a two-week-long nap lol.

But I had a fun season hanging out with my Celtics friends on RGM. It didn't end the way we wanted it to but the journey continues. Go C's!

Pathetic game. Not a great idea to spot a team 3 games. Cannot say I am surprised though. Team sucks at home and wasn't going to survive another horrendous shooting night from three. Not fun watching this team keep jacking and missing threes for 48 minutes and nothing else. This game was legitimately over in 12 minutes.

At this point Boston needs to move on from Brown. I've seen enough of him he's terrible. Issue is he's in a contract year so Boston will probably be stuck with him for next season and he'll just walk away.

No moral victories at this point and no one is going to remember how Boston fought back; all people will remember is how Miami as the 8th seed made an improbable run to the finals and now the record for teams going down 0-3 is now 0-151.

I will be honest there. I think the Celtics overachieved these playoffs. They were one of the most talented teams but just poor in so many ways. I had them losing in the 2nd round. All season I had zero belief in Mazzulla getting these guys to play better. When he couldn't get them to beat the Magic and they gave up 150 to the Thunder, I lost all believe in this team.

Hope my favorite player in the league sweeps those front runners.

Thank you for doing these all year Bisme.

Tatum getting injured absolutely **** up our entire team mentality. JB went into JB mode and **** things up with his stupid selfish low bbiq plays.

Get rid of Jaylen. Build around JT with complimentary players and we’ll be fine

For us, "unfinished business" really is just "business as usual."

Time Lord should demand a trade too. It was a literal layup line when he wasn’t playing. Horford is cooked.

You aren't gonna win anything with this core.

Joe/smart/brown.

Something gotta give.

Pretty much lost this game in the first minute. Biggest ankle injury in Celtics history, maybe second behind Hayward lol.

Jaylen was complete ass, hope we trade him next offseason for Luka.

Move Jaylen. Tatum catches heat but Jaylen is just a low IQ player who brings little to the table of he's not scoring .

Someone like a Mikal Bridges would be perfect next to a Tatum. They need to badly move on from Brown and his disastrous turnovers.

Are we recycling our t-shirts and slogan for next year?

Ears and fingers all open and ready for the trade anybody but Tatum talk.

I blame a lot of this on Brad. Hiring Joe and then not getting him a vet by his side

Unfinished Business: As Usual.

I’ll just repeat what I wrote in the game thread. This team folds like a cheap suit under the brightest lights and in the biggest games. And if we sign Jaylen freaking Brown to a max deal we aren’t a serious franchise. Unless we can find a sucker to trade him to.

Also Boston picked a great game to score a season low in points.

Still gotta give credit to the team to fight back to get this to a Game 7. Getting to a Game 7 to the Conference Finals isnt a horrible season.

With that said, from an outsider perspective who has watched this core a ton over the last half decade. I do think there is a ceiling to this core and its pretty hard to overcome that. And I do think a struggle of a game like this can lead to the necessary changes to shake it up.

The most fool's gold team in NBA history loses the ECF in the most fool's gold way possible.
