Well that was unpleasant! I really didn't want to make a loss thread you guys.

Celts played great offense in the 1st half but didn't guard and let the Sixers do whatever they wanted. Then it became a dog fight in the 2nd half and we got out-dueled by James Freaking Harden. I didn't enjoy it!

I'm all flummoxed and have to post something lol. BOOOOOO!!!!!

We will bounce back and win this series! Game 2 is Wednesday, Go C's!

They were bound to give a game away or two in this series. They might as well do it to start, so they can get their **** together early.

We sucked, but we don't suck.

Celts in 6 at the most.

This team was in trouble when they shot 93% in the first quarter and only had a 10-point lead. This is just such a dumb team too. How many bad turnovers can one team have in the game? That last play they couldn't get a shot up and we're sitting there waving their hands because they thought it was a shot clock violation. Then you have that last play whatever the **** Joe drew up.

It comes down to defense and Boston simply can't cover up the three-point shooters. I realize it's one game but this isn't Atlanta, Philly is a far superior team and it's going to be a quick series if Boston keeps the defense up

Mazzulla is legitimately one of the worst coaches I’ve ever seen on the Celtics sideline. I’d rather have Budenholzer than this guy.

They showed you all you need to know in those last 3 minutes.

They still don't get it.

Just like in Atlanta, we lose another game when Joe puts Smart on the floor on the offensive end, late in games. You CANNOT turn the ball over there. Been better if Smart had shot it.

Team is Mentally weak. Mazzula showing crazy warts. 5 games in a row guards destroying them. Zero adjustment. Rob sitting in the bench in the biggest defensive possession.

2 close games in the playoffs so far, 2 losses. That Brogdon turnover was special. Last play summed up Joe's coaching in close games.

Whenever Celtics need a basket, they’re guaranteed to turn it over.

The players are gonna have to do it themselves if they want to win a title. Our coach is our Achilles heal.

We "own them" though...you know, based on those Playoff matchups 3+ years ago.
