No Cheesesteaks For Us! Game 4 Loss vs PHI 5/7 (Series tied 2-2)

[Hal14]

Celtics in 6.

[exculpatory]

The loss sucks and takes away some of the good things such as:

1. Tatum's great rebounding performance and really good 3rd quarter - 22 points in the second half.
2. Al's key multiple defensive stops on Embiid was amazing - beyond amazing.
3. Brogdon's great shooting from 3 and good rebounding effort.
4. Brown's strong 1st quarter.
5. The really good comeback from about 16 down.

Thats moral victory crap. It has zero bearing on the next game. They didn't do enough this game despite all that. Every game is its own entity. 76ers gave them a window and they didn't take advantage.

Lol. Why are you mad at me? I wasn't the one that left Harden wide open for a 3 with a 2 point lead or not call timeouts to set up a good play.

I didn't say it was a moral victory or has any bearing on the next game because it doesn't. The choke job once again by this team takes away from some good things that happened during the game.

Nauseated.
Furious.
DISGUSTED.

RTG listed some great stuff WHICH WAS RUINED & MADE MEANINGLESS BY THE FOLLOWING:

A) #7 truly is a mother **** MORON with zero court awareness - same mother **** mistakes over & over.
TRADE HIM.
B) Bubblegum is a totally incompetent, mother **** MORON - not calling TOs at the end of Q4 tied or at the end of OT down 1. MIND BLOWING. Same mother **** mistakes over & over & over & over & OVER.
C) Smart should NOT be on the mother **** court during the mother **** end of mother **** close games. EVER. NEVER. EVER. NEEEEEEEEVEEEER. It ALWAYS SHOULD BE BROG & DERRICK. TRADE HIM.
D) THIS CORE DOES NOT KNOW HOW TO CLOSE…,AND HAS NOT FOR YEARS & YEARS. IT NEEDS ONE OF TRUTH’s GREATEST STRENGTHS - CONSISTENT CLUTCHNESS.

**** this team.
I have no faith WHATSOEVER in them.
Game to game, you NEVER know what you are gonna get.

I hope we have not played with our food one time too many.
The Sixers are **** dangerous.

Enough of this garbage. You can go back to game 1 and understand why we not up 3-1. Another subject. What do you think of Bronny or whatever his name is playing with Lebron? Might as well talk about another circus

[BRUNiNHO91]

Btw Rob was great and Joe Hoe buried him on the bench.

I hate this **** coach.

[playa-hater]

At this point, I'd rather Brad help Joe out with the coaching.

Brad can call great plays after time outs for sure..

[BK_2020]

you casuals saying Marcus Smart shouldn't be allowed to take wide open threes and in the same ***** game he knocked down a final buzzer shot with time running out that didn't count because it was 0.1 second after the buzzer lol

32 minutes for Al horford and I believe only 12 for rob Williams.. Of course somebody's going to say rob is probably hurt which is not the case..

There is no excuse for rob to be playing as few minutes as he has..

[BK_2020]

I don’t get the complaints about Mazulla here. Tatum calmly created two open threes for the last shot. Absolutely textbook. We were either an inch or a half a second away from the win. I don’t think a time out, letting them sub out Harden, improves on that.

This nails it.

I'd have White, Brogdon, Jaylen, Jayson and Al out there so we have five shooters. Or maybe even Hauser if he's played during the game. It's no criticism of Smart to sub him out for a final play like that. Especially since all we ever do is shoot threes.

I was wondering why he didn't play more. I totally forgot about this amongst the other crap lol. Is it because Rob can't shoot the 3?

[Celticfan_N_FL]

Garbage game from Jaylen Brown. Literally don't care he scored a bunch of points. From the tip off just complete trash effort and trash performance on defense. Repeatedly got beaten on transition, at one point let Embiid outrun him for a layup on a fast break, repeatedly gambled and broke down the defense, repeatedly made the wrong decision.

You...didn't watch the game. That much is clear.

You gotta believe in Marcus at this point. He's won so many games for us you don't sub him out for freaking Sam Hauser. And he had the balls to knock down that final shot with the score down one, proving everyone wrong. It just didn't count because it came a fraction of a second too late.

Correction big Al played 38 minutes.. I absolutely loved the way the old man can play but 38 minutes to 14 is really a joke..

And I think you're right I was stupid coach probably doesn't play rob because he can't shoot threes..

If you guys didn’t think this was going back to Boston 2-2 after the game 1 loss you are nuts. Who cares what kind of plays Stevens, Pitino, or Steve Grogan can draw up.

I fully believe White/Brogdon would hit more open threes than he would. Numbers are numbers.

WITHOUT A SCINTILLA OF DOUBT.

[Romeiro Celtic]

I don't know about you guys, but I'm not even worried about this. Those chokers blew a 16 point lead and got lucky with the W. No way in hell they're the better team.

[SichtingLives]

Lot of flak for Mazulla (justly so) but this is the same low iq bs Tatum Brown and Smart have been doing for years. How come two superstars and the worlds greatest role player can't figure out how to get an open fn shot on the final possession by now? and btw just because 3 pointers are gods gift to basketball these days, doesn't mean settling for a three in a one point game is a good look

[Jammer]

This is how they lost the Golden State series last year. Squandering opportunities. No way the Celtics should have finished on the short end of Games 1 and 4. That is 90% on the HEADLESS COACH.
