Celts' Boosters Stall On Reentry (Or Some Rocket Pun Like That)! Loss vs HOU 1/27

[Shak_Celts]

I want to watch the game without being on here, it’s distracting, but I hate that talker brooks. I would take his cocky behind on the Cs, but i hate him. I wonder if that’s what people felt about KG. NOT TALKING ANYTHING IN THE REALM OF TALENT.

[Shak_Celts]

Jb described it as his fault.

[playa-hater]

I am dreaming but I wish Joe would Go and we gave Sam Cassell the HC spot..

Anyone should be able to light a fire on this team better than Joe. That and actually not be so stubborn with rotations and In-game adjustments.

Sam Cassell for HC.. who is with me??

[fallguy]

We have one poster here, who says "coaching doesn't matter" Any guesses??

All he has to do is stay out the **** way. He can’t even do that. Dude hurt his team in like 5 or 6 different moments and it’s sickening. How many times are we going to let MEDIOCRE garbage burn us because we leave them wide **** open until they are red **** hot?

Also Tatum 2 shots in the 4th. What kind of a **** coach allows another team to take his superstar completely away? God I hate this **** coach so much.

He said they started blitzing us. I think I said doubling or something. You could see the notable difference but I rarely get the right term at the right moments.

When teams blitz Tatum above the arc, we have almost no reliable other sets or actions to get him the ball so he can make a play. Maaaaaaaybe we can throw it to him in the post. But it's not a new problem.

I would LOVE Brooks on this team.

[Fierce1]

And yet you say there is no way the Cs will end up the 4th seed.

They're 5 games up on the 4 seed with less than half the season left and have one of the easiest remaining schedules. We're not falling to 4th lol

Well, to be fair do easy games even equal wins anymore with the team?

Exactly!

[Fierce1]

To avoid further arguments, I will not say anything about Joe.

But here's the thing, it's becoming a case of doing the same thing over and over again and expecting a different result every time.

A coaching change or Joe doing what some of the fans want is simply not happening.

We can have 100 posts of how bad Joe is and tomorrow Joe will still be coach of the Celtics.

So why waste all that energy on something that you know is set in stone?

Another game where coach Joe cost us the game.

I said before the game that Joe will go double big too much. A. Thompson destroyed us. KP and Kornet weren't going to stop him, Tatum and Brown don't want to play defense.

How many times do we have players on opposite teams destroy us and there is not defensive adjustments? Tonight, they had two, Thompson and Brooks. They kept leaving Brooks open. Joe never put in Springer to slow him down. Springer played just 7 minutes and it wasn't to guard Brooks.

Joe has Kornet at the end of the game after a timeout and he gets beat for a dunk by Sengun. Also after a timeout, we are on defense and Joe thinks it's a good idea to have Pritchard in there.

I could tell this was going to be a loss after we took at 9 or 11 point lead in the 4th and didn't play any defense. I think the Rockets went on a 13-0 run.

Clueless Joe Mazzulla.

[return2glory]

The sad thing is the Celtics were trying, they gave effort unlike in the Lakers game. And they still lost.

Here it is again. For the 100th time.

We are as good as White and Jrue take us. I said that last season. They are the two key factors to this team.

Against the Lakers, White and Jrue combined for 6 points and we got blown out.
Against the Mavs, they combined for 40 and we blew them out.
Against the Rockets, they combined for 8 points (yeah I know White wasn't playing), we lost at home.

[return2glory]

Why use the foul to give after 0.5 seconds?? 5.5 vs. 4.9 makes no difference. Like 3 seconds left makes things a lot harder

Letting Brooks and Thompson have career nights on our home court, smh.

Because it was Luke **** Kornet on the action. If it’s Walsh or Springer on there they can hold the guy another second before fouling. We saw one possession earlier that Kornet can’t do that when he let Sengun walk into the paint.

This team loses the coaching battle EVERY SINGLE **** GAME. It’s embarrassing.

In what Universe is Kornet a better defender, especially on the Perimeter, in the end of games or at any time, than either of Walsh or Springer????

Again, not one of the other 29 HCs in the NBA would use Kornet on defense at the end of the game. NONE

I personally wouldn't play Walsh in that situation. He is too inexperienced. Springer should have been in. Also Pritchard should not have been in the game either after the timeout, when we were on defense.

[return2glory]

By the end of february this team will be in fourth place in the east. Mazzulla is a broken record with his press conferences. Tatum a complete no show.

Tatum was the 4th best player on the team in the playoffs. First half was a tough and rough battle. Tatum was far away from the action, doing ballet moves aka jacking up 28 footers aka being soft. He score 0 at the half, played no defense and was chillin.

[return2glory]

The better coach was on the other team and it was glaringly obvious tonight.

You can say that about 90% of the teams we face.

Because it's a message board about the Celtics and our coach is a pinhead.

Stop gatekeeping.

I mean yeah everyone would love to have Derrick white on their roster. He’s huge for us, so is holiday. Whites been struggling but if he gets back into form like he was last game which is a borderline all star player, the Celtics are a different team. If we have main roster healthy it would eliminate guys like Tillman playing but we just haven’t had that.

This team in general doesn’t look good when key guys are out because the bench struggles. They start keying in on the jays more and dare bench players to beat you and a lot of them don’t really know how to score.

When White and Jrue struggle or aren't involved in the offense as much, this team struggles. That's my point. White has struggled the past 4-6 weeks. That's why this team has been a .500 team during that time.

Also, Tillman looked bad, but that is to be expected when Joe doesn't play him ever, outside of the last 2-4 minutes of a blow out game. His timing is off and his is not in game shape. That's another issue with having a short rotation like coach Joe Thibodeau has.

[Lee Van Cleef]

So much youth, so much energy in this Rockets team (Brooks and Van Fleet aside). They are fun to watch.

Agreed. These guys have no chill.

[fallguy]

Most of the posts tonight are on the annoying stuff 'cause we lost, but that was a **** great game. Best of the season maybe?

How many years has JB been a Celtics? Do you think he’ll be a Cs tomorrow (today)? We waste time on a lot of stuff.

I’m trying to figure out what to say to that first sentence. “Good morning, and in case I don't see ya, good afternoon, good evening, and good night!"
