Problem is his slow start doomed this team.


What doomed this team is the inability to stop
Anyone tonight… Tobias, harden, Joel and maxey… all getting whatever they want

Al, smart, brown, Rob …. Defense absolutely atrocious, just a fact

They move the ball, people are cutting and confusing the hell out of the Celtics. Unlike our offense, everyone standing outside…zero cuts! Joe’s offense!

Jumpshots we can’t hit and iso drives while the rest stand around most of the game. Not going to get it done.

More like your boy can't coach, man!

We're just getting outplayed by a very good basketball team. Putting all the blame on the coach is misguided, imo.
Nothing wrong with having a different opinion - as long as it's done respectfully. It'd be lame if we all agreed on everything :)

Philly is just better. Better coach, better stars, and better role players.

Have to consider a new coach and breaking up the core this offseason.

If our defense was fine and our offense sucked I'd say stick with it. But our defense has sucked along with our offense, get Hauser in.

Do you not remember last season when we came back from down 3 games to 2 to beat the bucks?


We didn't do that with Joe.

Joe won more games this season than Ime did, with a less healthy team.


Ime went to the finals
Joe is still clueless

When we lose this series you will still say he is a good coach and best for this team

It’s not one player…they don’t have the mind set and the Sixers want it more.

I think he's ready to move on. I expect we'll accommodate him.

For real like these so called Celtics fans haven’t seen this debacle before from this celtics core. Losers.
