Gary's contempt for Joe and this team is so palpable.

What was that draft thing again..

Boston has 4 players drafted in a lottery one with the 27th pick.... As starters....

I believe Miami has 17...30th pick and 3 undrafted players and they are crushing us..

And it's actually a few posters who believe it's the players not the coaching...

You literally cannot make this up....
2 things need to go.. my lack of spell check and Joe.. :nod:

I think most of us knew it though. Only delusional green teamers thought differently.

Can we win a title with JT? Some days it’s like duh we can at some point with his play but then there’s moments like this..

Joe quit in a two-possession game last game. They might not have won in the end but he still quit, with timeout in hand.

How are we surprised that the players are following suit?

The problem for the Celtics long term is they do not look like the have a real #1 guy. Not sure how they change that. Better off rolling with JT and JB and hoping you can find the right supporting cast and coach.

There won’t even be a Game 5. Celtics don’t defend. Pencil in Heat for 120+ points in Game 4

well, i wish i could say that i dont know what this feels like but i know exactly how you guys feel right now. i'm past the impulse to indulge in Boston's failure, more so just mesmerized by how completely weird this all is. i want to say they will just go get smoked by Denver but that was supposed to happen at least twice already.

no words. all i can say is, HomerJoinUs.gif

Heat may take one as Jimmy Butler may just beat up Joe and take over one game.

This guy had more heart than anyone I’ve seen since Pierce and KG. The way they unceremoniously traded him for that malcontent Kyrie was a dark day for this franchise.

Give me Isaiah and his defensive limitations over these soft guys here. I miss players that played with heart.
