If Tatum was supposedly upset last summer after losing in the finals he better be livid now.

Time for Joe to say he didn't have them ready to play again. JT's ankle aside, I'm still furious at the first timeout of the game.

Pretty sure we are getting the **** kicked out of us at home in an elimination game. That’s what Phoenix did the last two years. There is something clownish going on here, but it isn’t my post.

Not really. They would be in the Finals with an experienced coach..no doubt.


So who's fault is that? You're saying Brad threw a title in the trash by hiring his personal bud?


I think Brad overrated regular season results with Joe. His lack of experience was obvious early in this series. He got better later but it was too much to overcome.

Did Rob play in the 4th quarter at all? lol Joe playing Brogdon may have set a bad tone for the Celtics. I think they were up before he came into the game.

Tatum has never had a bad game 7 until tonight. His worst game was the game 7 vs. Milwaukee in his rookie season. He had 20-6-5.


Who cares. His game 7 against the Cavs came after his pathetic game 6.

But he was a rookie then, he's gonna get better they said. This is only the start they said.

Tatum sucked tonight and it has nothing to do with his ankle. Convenient excuse for him.

Tatum had 24 on .650 TS% that game as a rookie. He shot over 50% from the field.
Jaylen Brown shot like 2-14 though. Zero free throws on top of that.

Our most immediate need is a new GM. Get rid of Brad, asap.

I think they’re probably having winning seasons even if it means being in the playoffs and failing time and time again.

That's basketball purgatory. Playoffs don't mean anything if you keep choking when you get there. That's why Bud, Doc and Monty got fired.

Facts, I'm not kidding when I say I have no interest in next season if this core and coach stays intact, none. Idc if they start the year off 25-0. I won't care. I'm beyond done. This group has shown us who they are an infinite amount of times. Maybe it's time we listen?

That would be the only excuse for not playing him. And even that one is questionable.

Break this core man. Only Tatum and white should be retained. Rob not having his own offense and getting injured often also kills us. Smart and Brown needs to go.

I'm actually really disgusted that Joe took the jays off the court.

These guys can't even give you a full game during game 7 of the ECF.

**** them. Really

Celtics losing 3 games at home in the ECF is disgusting
