I'm livid and it's not even the Raptors lol

Imagine if the Raptors lost that way, I think I'd puke.

lol the entire celtics fanbase thinks he's a clown, I haven't read what they're writing about him now but he still made some dumb moves tonight. Dude inherited an eastern conference championship team with high end talent and depth. series probably would already be over if celtics were coached by a guy like spoelstra.

and yet he's going to go down in history as the first coach to ever come back from a 0-3 deficit.

Only because he let his massively more talented championship contending team go down 0-3 to an 8th seed in the first place. He’d be fired by tomorrow morning if the ball didn’t rim out in the perfect spot tonight. That was a bad last play call and some questionable coaching in the last few minutes.

He wanted to take the hard path to the finals to toughen his team up. That’s a real coach right there.

Is this the best outcome from our point of view?

- Celtics win game 7
- Nuggets win the nba finals in 6
- Mazzulla does not get fired so he continues to be the coach next season. :lol:

You're really that invested in Miami?

Heat need playoff Jimmy back or they are toast. They also need Bam to start being a serviceable scorer. Celtics can get away with their stars having bad games. The Heat can't.

I don't know, maybe you are right. I just thought that was a clear foul by Al and why waste the timeout and the worst outcome came from it.

they would've reviewed it anyway...and desperate times....

Also, Joe's challenge resulted in the clock being set to 3.0, adding .09. So there's that.

Also the TNT crew just reshowed the play, from the far end zone angle. Strus had no chance to cut off White. Apparently Spo said Strus did his job denying Tatum up high.

I just hate Boston Sports Team in general. I don't give a damn or too shitts about Miami.

No thanks. He's a cool guy though, I'm sure he has a lot of friends already he doesn't need me.

I was 3 seconds away from being your father and this is how you treat me?

Boston had 3.0 seconds and White got the ball off with 0.1 second left.

Here is the moment Horford fouled Butler, with 2.8 seconds left.

When it's not the Raps playing, that's what fuels me as a fan - hating one of the teams.

HumbleRen · Post #2293 » by **HumbleRen** » Sun May 28, 2023 4:07 am

Celtics/Raps beef is probably the most one sided beef OAT lol.

They don't even think about the Raptors :lol:

I don't even know why Raps fans hate them so much outside of their annoying media presence. Is it because of the hockey or mlb beef ? I don't watch either of those sports so I don't really know.

I thought that Jimmy game 7 shot to win it last year would have prepared me but I'm just shocked

its deflating but not lethally so...celtics got a lucky tip in literally at 0.1 seconds.
game 7 is a 50:50 proposition imo. these games tend to be mucky and grind out which favors miami but celts have the better team. it will be a crunch time victory, whoever wins.

To be a box out away from going to the nba finals is crushing. Celtics have all the momentum in game 7 to complete this comeback

this win resets expectations. miami was always the underdog in this series...somewhere that got forgotten. if heat comes in with that mentality, they have a good a chance as any. now pressure is on celtics to close because they're now seen as the better team playing at home.

Honestly I'm expecting the Celtics to beat Miami in blowout fashion.

I would threaten you as a human, but im saving my ban for Monday if Miami loses.

Bring your popcorn boys! Its gonna be a good one.

If Miami loses? You already guaranteed a win. Don't go jimmy butler on us now.

I guess there's no chance of a preemptive ban, before the game? Duff?
