Re: Celtics Stung! Loss vs CHA 11/20
I was baffled when JB shot that 3 during OT completely ignoring Porzingis. He’s so open, how do you not make that pass…

I'm sure I'm not the first to have said it in the thread.
Brown - absolute trash. I was so happy when he had to go out with foul trouble. Too bad he didn't get a quick 6th foul, Boston might have won.
Jrue - everyone's favorite new binky on this site - I bet Marcus wouldn't have missed 2 free throws to ice the game.
Jrue is such a HUGE improvement over Marcus you're blind.

I’m not a Joe fan. Didn’t like him last year and still don’t like him. His issues are well known so won’t repeat. I can only hope that Brad sees the light and elevates charles lee or sam. Come playoffs Joe will be severely outcoached by Nick Nurse and Spoelstra
"Now, there's a steal by Bird..!"

Not sure what his record is in OT gamws snd games decided by 5 points or less but it cant be very good. Despite how crappy we were we should never lose a game when we’re up 9 with teo minutes to go. Yes the players are at fault but joe blew it
I said it last season. Probably at least 50% of the College Intramural Champion coaches could outcoach Mazzula.
Now someone well jump in pointing out that Mazzula's Ferrari has a record of 11-3 while Spoelstra's Volkswagen is 9-5 and Popovich's Yugo is 3-11.

Re: Celtics Stung! Loss vs CHA 11/20
Just want to thank you guys for making this place so fun after a loss lol.
I can't comment on the game much as I had basketball practice and then a Zoom board meeting so only saw on accident when I went to turn the game on we were up 9 with 2 minutes left. I decided not to watch right away and get some other stuff done with the kids before my son told me it went into OT which is the only part of the game I watched live.
From a simple box score analysis if you miss free throws, give up second chance points, and give up fast break points you're going to lose most games.

What makes you think they would be any better? No team is gonna fire a coach who has the best record in the league, only to give the job to a guy who's never been an NBA HC before. C'mon now..
Nothing wrong with having a different opinion - as long as it's done respectfully. It'd be lame if we all agreed on everything

I'm really trying hard to be supportive of JB, but he's really very unlikable right now.

Jaylen is always Jaylen, but somehow worse this year. Our 300 million dollar man is honestly unlikely to even sniff an all star game this year.
Almost happened last night, too but this is another classic example of a mazzulla team playing down, disinterested and just shrinking in overtime. 4-9 is he now? Crazy.
Who knew the cog to this whole machine was Derrick White.
Pretty sure that was established a long time ago.
By this board, but not by the C's coaching staff (see last year's playoffs and how many times White sat out crunch time).

In JB's defense, this picture is an aerial view. It's not what JB is seeing in real time. JB is seeing a big defender with his hands up right in his face, blocking his view of KP.
He probably still should have been able to see the passing window and make the pass though..

The problem with JB is he will acknowledge his mistake but keeps repeating them over and over again.
He's the new Carmelo.

The Cavs did that to David Blatt. Having been to finals a year before, and also having the best record of their conference. Lue had never been hc before as well.

Whether he saw KP or not, why take a contested 3 when the score is tied and only 30 secs remaining?

Joe gets fired if Cs fail to win a chip now and in 2024-25.

If you are an NBA player, and a player standing in front of you prevents you from seeing a 7'3 giant standing in the paint with his hands up, that is worse than being just selfish.

Re: Celtics Stung! Loss vs CHA 11/20
Maybe JB was thinking 2 for 1 because the Cs will have last possession.
