Celts Build Brick Wall, Put Their Backs Against It! G5 Loss vs PHI 5/9 (PHI leads 3-2)

Post #1 » by **bisme37** » Wed May 10, 2023 2:00 am

Well crap you guys that was a damn nightmare!

I don't even know what to say lol. We missed a ton of shots and got torched on the other end and just didn't do enough to win. Honestly I'm not feeling well today and my head has been killing me to the point that I had to take a few breaks from the game to rest my eyes. So I'd say I need to watch it again to get a better take on what happened, but yeah, I'm not watching that again lol.

We're up against it now, you guys! Celts can certainly win the next one and then we're looking at a Game 7 and I like our chances there too. So I'm gonna put my big boy pants on and stay confident.

Game 6 Thursday, Go C's!

The same issues that plagued this team all season, which is questionable coaching inability to hit shots, taking teams lightly and flat out effort were absolutely front and center in the playoffs. Literally nothing's changed with his team since the regular season.

Philly hasn't beaten Boston in a series in like 40 years and the crowd in Philadelphia is going to be absolutely insane. Even if Boston somehow wins that game does anyone have any confidence this team can actually win a game 7 at home?

I know people are going to say "well they did that last year!" This team is clearly not as good and anyone that thinks otherwise hasn't been watching.

I knew this team's personality before the playoffs started so I have no one to blame but myself. I guess it's like dating someone who's a psychopath then marrying them then being surprised when they're still psychopath.

Joe is the biggest AOS for continuing drop coverage, lack of game feel and not trying Hauser, PP or Muscala earlier.

However the entire team of 8 are big AOS too.

JT is included for his start, but at least he showed up big after that.

But I again come back to Joe, you are letting them dictate how they want us to play.

You have let our players remain uncomfortable while letting them get and stay comfortable.

At this point a magic 8-ball could do a better job.

Nothing left to say but to man up in Game 6.

All we need to do is beat Philly twice in a row. We can do that.

He's completely over his head and I wish they would fire him and hire Nurse but they're stuck with this guy for at least the next two seasons.

If they don't lose by 30+, I'd be surprised. They have no heart and their coach is a joke.

Hey there is always a silver lining.

Celtics have a great chance to wear those “Unfinished Business” tee shirts all summer.

I need more than 3 options.

Also can’t tell if the dog farted or I can smell the Celtics from Indiana. What a terrible performance in a big time game!

You think we could get the #1 pick this year with a JT/JB package?

J/k...maybe.

The coaching has been bad but really just the lack of urgency and effort from the players is what stuck out to me again.

I'm embarrassed that I had so much confidence in them winning this game.

It's very bad and you can see the players have no confidence in him,
and this is one team, that doesn't need an excuse to implode on themselves...

What was most Ass-of-Shameful?
