They got all the boards and second chance points in that quarter. Killed us.

Looks like the same team as last year to me. Joe is terrible

So is this the real Celtics? I really hope not.

These guys will never have a chance at championships with Joe as coach.

Tatum and Brown spend too much time reading their own press clippings.

He does not understand spacing

FTFY.

He also had a pass to Porzingis earlier when they were both on the left baseline almost standing next to each other. Predictably, KP had to shoot over two defenders.

Ball movement was actually really good that half, just guys missing too many shots. There has been like a handful of iso so far.

I pray to god every day that Jaylen Brown decides to hang it up and go into politics.

Celtics need a rebounder. This need will become even more obvious as the season goes.

Scared it might be. Saw similar things last year where they cooked early, got exposed and never looked the same again. Philadelphia looking a step ahead. The sum is not greater than the parts these last two games so far.

Tatums lacks true athleticism to break his man down off the dribble and brown lacks the handle , it’s really the Achilles heal of this team

How about you convince us who should be coaching instead and make a logical argument for why we'd be a better team with that other guy as coach?

Before you answer, keep in mind we're #1 in the NBA in net rating and we'd be undefeated if White played the other night. So it'd be hard for any other coach to do better.

Our guys just aren't hitting open shots. If they were, we'd have a comfortable lead right now.

Not ‘us’..convince you, because most here see Joe for the mediocre coach he is. This actually reminds me of last year when you kept saying Joe was good because he won coach of the month..this year is net rating through 6 games, two being against bum teams lolool first two real teams they play and they look like ass.

Who should coach? Lol Anybody that has a **** clue would be nice. Philly’s coach was there for the taking..guy with NBA championship experience..

And who says if White played we would have won? White is playing today and we are getting folded. Foh with this positivity BS. Your coach is trash and has been for two years. Wake the **** up.

We’re very beatable when both Jays are subpar. KP keeping us in it.

Joe played lead footed Al and Mr Big for nothing for way too long in the 2nd quarter.

Hal14 · Post #314 » by **Hal14** » Thu Nov 9, 2023 1:15 am

Let's see if Joe tries putting someone else in there off the bench to give us a spark in the 2nd half - instead of Pritchard.

I think they actually need someone who can create his own shot. There’s no one on the roster who can do it.

Lol at the overreactions in this thread.

It’s November

zoyathedestroya · Post #317 » by **zoyathedestroya** » Thu Nov 9, 2023 1:16 am

JB gonna see the stat sheet and will see he only has 5 pts at the half. Praying for the best.

This team shouldn't be losing like this, with this Starting Lineup. No Excuses.
Jays are Waaay Off.

We need a bit better Bench too.
