It’s gotten worse around here hasn’t it?

Everywhere, not just the post game thread


I like to think we're especially bad though.

I don't think that's a fair comparison. Ime inherited a team with terrible habits that had never had any accountability. It took him until the trade deadline to mold the team. Joe inherited a team coming off a finals run, and coached an older Tatum/Brown.

Agreed but let’s not act like Mazzulla came into Boston in excellent circumstances.


Fair, but still there's no question who's the better coach.

Maybe but I don’t see coaching being the difference between a title or not with this group.

They have more than enough talent to win. They just need to execute when it matters.

Sounds great but if Tatum doesn’t raise his game, we can replace our bench players with 5 solid vets and it won’t matter. It’s time for JT to assume the mantle.

32/12/6... okay buddy.

The Jay’s aren’t comparable players, sorry.

Unfortunately all I have on my side of the argument is raw stats, advanced stats, on/off stats, and win/loss stats.



Yeah that’s working out great for Bill. How’s he doing without Brady again?

If anyone thinks they are comparable players, it immediately means that they don’t know ball, stats or not. Opinion disqualified, voided, whatever you want.

Goodnight sweetheart.


Nobody actually thinks they're comparable do they? Tatum is in a different stratosphere than Brown.

I thought we used Jaylen really well tonight btw. Outside of that stretch in the third where he tried to match Hali, he was mostly a play finisher. Back to back games with 0 assists isn’t great though lol, regardless of how he’s used.

He’s one of the handful of guys on this team I do trust in a tight, playoff atmosphere.

Don’t you know on this board you’re not allowed to have a bad game without everyone questioning if you’re a basketball player, calling for you to be traded etc.

Most hysterical fan base by a mile


Lol. Some of you are dead stiff serious. At least this fan base ain’t boring like other groups haha

I like some variety.

Not a bunch of dudes getting angry at others who agree that the sky is falling down after every loss.

I think some on here have also forgotten that you cannot win 82 games in a season.

Use whatever excuse you want to use, this is a bad loss and it is somewhat concerning that we crumbled in that environment and the baby Pacers didn’t.


Mazzula once again watches a 3rd quarter run, watches a star get hot and does nothing about it. At what point do we realize the man does nothing because he has no clue what he is doing out there?


He literally called two timeouts in the 3rd quarter …

Blaming all our losses on Joe is just becoming lazy analysis by you guys that do it.

Can you imagine teams loading up on Jaylen with their best defenders and schemes every game? He'd turn the ball over 15 times a game and shoot 25%.

Read on Twitter

Celtics haven't had a downhill-driving guard since IT. Kemba, when he still had his knee.

It’s bizarre with Tatum because he has games where he genuinely looks unguardable and gets to the basket with ease.

I think he forgets at time he’s bigger and stronger than most guys out there

I'm beginning to wonder if he's getting reluctant to shoot FTs at certain points in a game, or wondering if he'd even get the call given how bad his relationships with the refs is. He got horse collared and no tech or flagrant. Damn, that's a foul in the NFL!

Yep.

White was a turnover machine, Holiday was meh and Horford offered nothing offensively and looked sluggish defensively

Yeah but not every fan reacts the same way. Just scroll past their post, or just laugh it off. Some are just trolls anyways.

Actually think we should build around HAU3ER.
