We do it every **** year.

Just more likely to happen to us since we play more playoff games than say the Bucks. If we lose in the 1st round every season that's only 2-3 home games per playoff, thus less chance of having a really bad loss.


15-15 in our last 30 home playoffs games that’s beyond pathetic

Agreed. Been complete garbage.

Last year was way louder

Hard for fans to get up for a team that loves to take games off in front of them.

I mean, they flat out quit in the fourth quarter but it's the home crowd's fault?


Its not the home crowd’s fault that we lost but it was bad

I think our major mistake was letting Mobley get off, not because he was doing his thing, but because DM could save his energy for the 2nd half. I feel this about most star-superstar players, if they go off in the first half, they will likely slow down A LOT in the 2nd half (when the game is within reach). You never want those guys to have it easy in the first half. I used to say this so much about LBJ. Then when I heard someone say LBJ or Kobe talked to them about pace and not trying to do it all right away, I felt vindicated all those years saying it on here. Make them work early, the body can only do so much before it wears down! I'd rather DM be exhausted early than Mobley, Mitchell is what they NEED on offense to win, while Mobley does it as a bonus. IMO we would have fared better if DM did what Mobley was early, he pushes their needle more. We have to make him work on both ends in game 3. Stop him and the others will follow most of the time. That's why we kept it close in the first half (bad), he did his work in the 2nd half and it was over from there.

Vogel is on the market, an actual NBA coach.

But we won't.

I feel so dirty when I report a post.

Like I did after watching the Celtics offensive gameplan, and their guard defense.

Cut it out! You have better things to add.


And you guys made this guy a mod at one point. That was shocking to me.


Nobody cares bud, go back to pretending to have inside info, because your basketball takes are honestly just abysmal.


Last inside info I posted here was years ago when I said we are going made a trade with Orlando hours before the trade happened.
Tatum is still overrated and not a leader. Carmelo 2.0. Don't get too mad. Melo is top 10 in scoring in NBA history.

It’s almost like the fans are like the players and just expect to win lol.

Vogel would be great as an assistant here. He still gets paid by the Suns. Sam is deserving of a chance to coach this team.

no one should be the fallguy but you have no problem when it's jb.

Tatum should be down the list of what went wrong tonight, but he's not Jokic so they aren't going to let it slide. JT is judged way harsher than any superstar before him and it's a shame. Coming from Cs fans the most. :nonono:

One of the best things about being a Celtics fan is how much fans of other teams hate the Celtics and their fans.

On the General Board, Jayson Tatum is being compared to Tobias Harris :lol: or maybe it’s the Celtics forum? I’m getting confused :lol:

I don't disagree. But Brad should have made that placement the first time around. He's too smart to not recognize we're turning the substitute teacher into the principal.

I say this as somebody who doesn't put even 60% stock into head coaches. But what we have today is a joke if you really thinking about being a 95% upper echelon team. Joe would be great in Brooklyn or something.
