They were suspended by RGM. Bagley filed a report and asked the higher-ups (so to speak) of the site to investigate some grievances he had. And after the investigation they decided he was at fault and he got suspended. Then Feed Your Head got mad about that and posted some inappropriate public attacks and said he knew it would get him suspended. So he got suspended too. No one feels great about it but that's what happened. They will be welcomed back when the suspension period is over.

I'm saying this because people have noticed and are asking questions, but it's really not good form to be airing their business here. So let's not derail the thread please.

Not confident at all. Just can't believe we're coming back just like we did against the Bulls back in 2017... Well, they kind of have some similarities: Both teams 8th seed, both teams with Jimmy Butler. HELL WE **** CAN DO IT. LETS GO!

22 So the posters turned from there and went toward the Celtics forum, while bisme remained standing before Howard. 23 Then bisme came near and dm'd, “Will you indeed sweep away the righteous with the wicked? 24 Suppose there are fifty righteous within the forum; will you then sweep away the place and not forgive it for the fifty righteous who are in it? 25 Far be it from you to do such a thing, to ban the righteous with the wicked, so that the righteous fare as the wicked! Far be that from you! Shall not the Judge of all the website do what is just?” 26 And Howard dm'd, “If I find at the Celtics forum fifty righteous in the forum, I will forgive the whole place for their sake.” 27 bisme replied, “Let me take it upon myself to speak to my admin, I who am but text and white space. 28 Suppose five of the fifty righteous are lacking? Will you ban the whole forum for lack of five?” And he dm'd, “I will not destroy it if I find forty-five there.” 29 Again he dm'd to him, “Suppose forty are found there.” He replied, “For the sake of forty I will not do it.” 30 Then he dm'd, “Oh, do not let my admin be angry if I dm. Suppose thirty are found there.” He replied, “I will not do it, if I find thirty there.” 31 He dm'd, “Let me take it upon myself to speak to my admin. Suppose twenty are found there.” He replied, “For the sake of twenty I will not mass ban it.” 32 Then he dm'd, “Oh, do not let my admin be angry if I dm just once more. Suppose ten are found there.” He replied, “For the sake of ten I will not mass ban it.” 33 And Howard went his way, when he had finished speaking to bisme, and bisme returned to his place. 34 REPEAL THE JONES ACT!

A 6-month suspension for private conversations is an eye-opener.

Is it now entirely against the rules to disagree with the mods in any way? If not, what are the exceptions?

What can't happen is Jaylen attacking 3 or 4 Heat defenders all by himself.

Multiple ECF appearances and JB still makes too many bad reads.

Your info isn't correct. There's no 6 month suspension. And it wasn't for what you said. And again, it came from the Global Mods and Site Admin, and the part the Celtics mods played in it was unanimously agreed on as fair by all the mods here. If you want to PM me we can talk maybe after the game or tomorrow.

The good news is that the mistakes are correctable. Playing better is the easy fix but you have to grind out some wins in the post season and Joe has to be ready to adjust.

These games might as well be played on neutral sites, home court literally means nothing. Celtics can win in Miami, they are a very good road team. But the Jays have to play at their peak, which they haven’t done yet in this series.

even if we play the exact same way we've been playing, and the heat play the same way they've been playing -- if we just get a normal JB performance we're winning. JB being below replacement level for the first two games has been the biggest killer. our team isn't build to have our #2 scorer playing like an inconsistent 6th man
