Thank god the Heat don't have Butler. Celtics would be done.

Exactly. Take it upon himself to get them back. Tatum making a dissappearing act again.

It's schematic. Not effort.

Jaylen brown helping on the strong side in the first quarter and leaving jovic wide open is schematic? Watch the wolves on defence in the playoffs if you wanna see actual defence this is pathetic effort in the playoffs

As I've been stating for 14 months now.. Maybe more.. But in the regular season coaching doesn't matter you can just roll out the talent..

Phil Jackson wouldn’t even get the best out of these guys trust me.

Ime took a inferior roster to the finals and if the refs didn't swing game 2 early they win that ****.

Which inferior roster? Which team?

Not even that is going to happen.

40 of their 66 shots are from 3. That's not really their MO. It's more like 40 3s out of 100 FG attempts in the regular season.

Heat identified a weakness, were willing to change their game plan, and took advantage.

Cs did nothing to prevent it.

A defended 3??

And just like that, put a hand up and block it. So simple. A great adjustment by Joe Mazzulla.

I was told this was the greatest offense in NBA history.

KP gave us nothing

Are there any Mazulla defenders left?

On paper you're right...in reality they always struggle vs them. Literally would rather have played any other team in the first round.

To be fair Jokic is looking like he’ll go down as a top 10 player of all time lol

How else can you explain it

No explanation needed. Most people people the Celtics will choke again in the playoffs.

I ain't worried about this round but it doesn't fill me with confidence for later rounds when they can't even manhandle a completely underhanded Heat team.

A team thus far they have had zero problems with all season.

Never want to hear about Tatum being a superstar again. Standing in the corner while we are trying to give it pprzibgus who hasn’t done anything

Mhm excuse me sir, he won 64 games and had historical numbers beating the crap out of the Hornets, Spurs and Wizards. He did a FABO job of developing the great Pritchard and Kornet and Hauser. Winningest coach in the world. Who cares if he got his ass handed to him in the playoffs last year for 3 rounds and almost got swept by the 8th seed, had a below .500 record against elite west teams this year and is now getting his ass mauled by a gleague team.

COTY!
