Ugh you guys it was a tragic loss to the Magic why is this happening to us it's just the worst!

I'm all over the place, was just finding highlights of our amazing comeback and now trying to say something about our crappy loss lol.

I'm beyond tired of these Orlando dudes and really don't want to compliment them, but they played very good defense tonight and really hustled. That said, a bunch of our guys just had off games imo, missing their usual shots and/or making sloppy plays, and I know they'll bounce back and kill it in the next one.


Game 4 Sunday, Go C's!

15 offensive rebounds for the Magic is the story of this game.

Bench no show. KP was dog **** when we needed him. Joe was terrible.

Orlando has two good offensive players and we haven't been able to stop either one of them all series.

Everyone except Tatum was horrendous.

Especially KP and Brown.

Even still, wtf are you doing Joe? How you gonna watch the magic score 15 straight points and just sit there with your dick in your hands?

What are we doing here. Where was the push back on the god damn clock?

PATHETIC

13 TOs for the Jays isn’t going to cut it

KP was obviously terrible. Bench useless. Onto the next one

Never in my life have I seen them not even bother to look at the clock in an end of game situation. And that whistle to bail Banchero out? Get out of here. Also didn’t look at the clock then.

Just hope we finish this in 5 so we can get some rest while Pistons and Knick battle to 7.

If Tatum just defended without reaching in for the ball, it would have been an 8 second count. He should have just played D. Could have risked a foul, too.

All they had to do was not be pathetic for a whole quarter and they win by double digits.

Hauser has played 35 minutes in these 3 games against the Magic and has zero effing points. Straight garbage.

Just a game with bad execution all around. Missed Jrue for sure. I also don’t know why Tatum was hunting Banchero late. I mean almost everyone predicted us to drop a game so this is it I guess. I badly want to be out of this series ASAP

Crossposted from the game thread, I tried to pause the replay the moment our guys began to call for a timeout on that last possession, our guys were already motioning for a timeout with 0.9 left. 0.3 and no automatic review? bs

This was the opposite of game 1, where we were awesome most of the game but sucked in the 2nd quarter. Tonight we played well in the second quarter, but otherwise we rebounded poorly and played lazy on offense, leading to a lot of lazy turnovers.

And only 15 assists to 19 TOs
And only shooting 9-27 from 3. Only 27 shots

And ORL playing WWE and we play basketball

Porzingis was horrific.

Won’t win many games with him playing like that and Jrue out

Celtics 19 Turnovers (7 by Tatum, 6 by Brown). Orlando 13 Turnovers.

Celtics 39 Rebounds. Orlando 42 Rebounds.

Don't like those stats. Win them, and usually win the game.

Oh, Orlando did win ... :banghead:

Most pathetic playoff game in a LONG time.

KP absolutely sucked and so did Joe.

Moving on to game 4....

Coaching masterpiece by Mazzula saving Jaylen’s 6th foul for the next game. Incredible stuff.

Porzingis can’t score a 3 foot jumper over Corey Joseph. Hauser is useless.

Celtics got robbed though.

Not very encouraging to see them struggle so much against Orlando’s defense..if they see OKC in the finals they are in huge trouble.

Hauser has 0 points in 3 straight playoff games. You might as well play Baylor at this point. I guarantee he has more than zero points in those 3 games, and would play a hell of a lot harder than Sam.

Hauser, PP and KP 3 worst players tonight. Average KP they win by 10.
