Even The Celts Cavn't Figured Out How to Win Em All! Loss vs CLE 3/5

[bisme37]

Blargh you guys we did not win the big game!

We built a lead but then fell asleep and sucked in the 4th and the Cavs stole one.

Lame ass loss but the Celtics are still the balls!

We're taking it out on the Nuggets Thursday, Go C's!

[Sweet Serenity]

Cue the overreactions as well as Joe’s biggest fans to come out of hiding & tell us how much he sucks …

[zoyathedestroya]

Joe braindead in the 4th. Tatum just plain dumb walking up the ball down 1. No way around it. We still had a chance to win but IQ in the dumps.

[The Corey's]

I'm actually really heated that this coach continues to make the same mistakes over and over.

He's just a passenger and the only thing he adds is a net negative to the culture.

I'm extremely heated that the refs took away the foul, the points and the possession all on the same play all because they can't make the right **** call on the fly in real time.

They stole that game.

[Memokerobi]

Never felt like we’d lose this game but here we are lol. Did not have getting destroyed by Dean Wade on my bingo card

[Green89]

Scal was wrong on the clock starting on possession. It starts on the tip, and the 24 second clock starts only on possession.

We should have never been in that situation. A 34-17 4th quarter with Garland sitting for 5 minutes of it was atrocious.

Cue the overreactions as well as Joe’s biggest fans to come out of hiding & tell us how much he sucks …

I know you're new around here so I'll give you a break on the tired narrative but find a new schtick.

Last thing you're gonna want is to be known as the Joe is the guy, guy.

[Green89]

Really bad way to start a very tough road trip.

[Kalela]

Joe basically lost the game. Horrible lineup with two bigs that made no sense at all. He outsmarts himself too much this guy. They had a 22 point lead.

[Memokerobi]

Mad that Joe stuck with Luke and Al for too long. Not that mad he didn’t call a TO in the final possession because they’d have subbed out Garland

[doogie_hauser]

Pissed AF

Tempting to blame Joe, but this collapse is all on the players imo, and they didn't give enough respect to Dean Wade and the other Cavs players.

It's almost a replica of that disaster of a loss at Charlotte earlier this season.

If anything else, its a reality check for our players not to get too complacent/arrogant

But yes, still fuming. One of those losses that will take me an hour or so to get over.

[JimmyFromNz]

That looked like last seasons team.

No massive reaction, other than I hope it serves as a good reminder of what happens when both players and coach go away from what works.

Props to Jrue and KP trying to rescue us at the end, good things happen when we don't allow our ball stoppers to ball stop at critical parts of the game.

[playa-hater]

For the sake of our esteemed board members here , I will stay out of this thread commenting on the celtics tonight.

[Bar Fight]

JT took a goofy ass hero shot when we were down to try to get a buzzer beating moment instead of going quickly and giving us a chance for an offensive rebound. Selfish **** play.

[The Corey's]

Give it time fellas. Joe is gonna be the first coach in NBA history to blow a 50 point game.

I'm that confident.

[Green89]

Cue the overreactions as well as Joe’s biggest fans to come out of hiding & tell us how much he sucks …

Weak ass post that happens probably more often than the overreactions you speak of. Very sorry you can't tell bad things when you see them. The way we lost is extremely concerning for close, playoff games we expect to win this year, and overcome **** endings of our problematic past blown games. It's called concerning, not overreacting.

[Ben-N1ce]

100% on Mazzula. The 4th lineup, no timeouts, no timeout Tatum fail...is 1/3 of their losses..

[GrandTheftRondo]

That loss rests solely on Tatum.

All he had to do at the start of the fourth quarter was anchor the bench, hit a few shots and create a few for others and we win that game.

Instead he was flat out awful, unable to finish around and over some terrible defenders.

The bench guys we had in were a bad combo too.

Impossible to feel confident in this team when it matters most when they just continue to **** the bed in absurd ways late in tight games.

[GrandTheftRondo]

JT took a goofy ass hero shot when we were down to try to get a buzzer beating moment instead of going quickly and giving us a chance for an offensive rebound. Selfish **** play.

His whole second half was selfish.

Forced shots all half and was the primary reason the good ball movement stopped.

He wonders why he doesn’t get more MVP consideration. Maybe because MVPs don’t **** the bed as often as he does.

Completely sick of him crying for a foul after every bad miss

[exculpatory]

An ASS OF SHAME mother **** cluster **** L to a **** depleted team following a historic 52 point blow out W.
Unimaginable.
Unfathomable.
We blow a 22 point fourth quarter lead to a 20 point Q4 by Dean **** Wade (averaging 5 PPG).
7 was pure garbage in the first half.
Tatum was worse garbage in the second half, down the stretch & on the last play.
And our coach is beyond saving. Throw him in the **** trash.
I am out.


ASS OF SHAME!
