Can’t have your superstar score too many points in the first quarter or Joes copy of the Town will get lost in the Bermuda Triangle or something

Going to be great if the series extends and Jimmy magically plays because of it.

That’s not a winning formula.


If you gave Jaylen and Jayson 6 of the 20 something shots Jrue and KP got, we would have probably won the game. Heat had nothing for either one but we insisted on giving Pritchard the ball so he could dribble baseline and back for 15 seconds or KP in the post so he could fumble the ball off his knee with Duncan Robinson guarding him.


The jays were awful in the 4th quarter. The only player that showed up was Derrick White

Lol. In the post game press conference, Joe said most of the Heat's threes were heavily contested. We have a coach that can't process information in-game...which makes it impossible for him to make in-game adjustments. We have a uniquely bad coach.

But some here will tell you the Cs can win a chip despite of Joe.

One week from now this series could be over and all the panic after this Game 2 loss would look so silly.

highly unlikely, but if we choke away game 3 on their court, we may have to re-think that lol. Still shell shocked on how mad the adjustments were in-game and how the C's reacted. UNREAL

I don’t blame Brad either. I know some cuck up high in the franchise had has little dirty cuck fingers all over that decision. A decision that benefits NOBODY on this franchise.

An NBA team cannot be seen to be covering up clear breaches of workplace policies especially when we’re talking about sexual relationships and comments.

The Celtics didn’t want lawsuits popping up.

Udoka **** up and made his position untenable. End of story.

Jimmy clowning the Cs put more pressure on the Heat.

I would have agreed that 6 or 7 would've been more likely, but because Jimmy couldn't resist the urge to poke the bear, I think Heat are done in 5.

Brad should have returned to the bench as interim coach.

Wtf are you talking about. Heat have nothing to lose. If they lose in 5 it was an expected result. Heat have no expectations

Brad was burned out by a pretty trying time beginning with the Hayward injury, Kyrie saga and then the team stagnating under him.

I’m glad he’s the GM instead.

You, me, and most Celtic fans agree on that.

But there are those who have PTSD against the Heat.

Some here are even saying the Cs will lose to the Cavs or Magic.

Guess that depends on who you ask.

From the sounds of it I doubt Jimmy would even be back in the semis.

He can be GM and coach, like Pitino was.

But as coach, it has to be on an interim basis.

Jrue is mostly getting what he wants in the paint this series, though he missed several bunnies in G1. Porzingis has to produce more than 1-9 with several turnovers. They tried to get him going the first couple possessions of the 3rd and of course it (somewhat surprisingly?) didn’t work. We spent all season saying he’d make the difference against MIA and that wasn’t what we meant!

As for Pritch, he was trying to make things happen, but the Heat aren’t going to give him baseline drive-layups like the April Wiz and Hornets were. He only burned a couple of possessions doing that and I’m not mad about it.

Yes, each Jay going for 40 in a close win would have been better than the outcome we got. But they’ve been an ensemble team all season and this was the first playoff game where it didn’t work. Recharge and try it again in G3.

It's just sad that we're throwing away years of potential championships so that we can employ this guy.
