Yes and so is White. There are certain posters who have agenda against both because their hero got shipped out.

People were expecting Joe to take a timeout, but White pushed the ball and Jrue ended up getting an easy layup to make it 101-107.
Joe pushed the right buttons in this game.
If you're a Pacers fan, how in the world do you lose a game where you led by 18 in the 2nd qtr. and again led by 18 in the 3rd qtr.
But since it's Rick and not Joe, nobody will be asking to fire Rick.
Just imagine if the Celtics led by 18 in the 2nd and again led by 18 in the 3rd and the Cs lost.
The immediate overreaction would be, "Fire Joe!"

Celtics were out rebounded by 7 and allowed 68 points in the paint. That won’t win you a NBA Championship.
Mazzulla and the Celtics have to be better. They were fortunate tonight

Brown biggest play tonight was the late defense at half court that had the Pacers take a bad shot with a few seconds on the shot clock.
Brown played well but just wasn’t the story tonight. Same can be said for DWhite.
The story tonight was JT, Big Al and Jrue!
JT was awesome from the jump.
I actually felt White was cheeks tonight until he was a big part of the team defense kicking into gear end of the 3rd lol. Not Hauser level bad, but not normal DWhite good either, even in the things that don’t show up on box scores.
