How can we not foul early to extend the game. Make them shoot free throws jeez. Joe is back to his idiot stubborn self. By extending the series, we risk injuries. Smh

I want either Craig or Baylor to take Hauser's minutes next game. He's had three games to get uncorked and has done absolutely nothing. Try somebody else.

When guys like malone are getting fired not even two years after Denver's only title ever then wtf should Joe have protection?


He shouldn't be fired if we lose to OKC in the finals. Or even the cavs really.


I dismiss this outrageous claim that either of those teams are beating the Celtics.

The only chance they have comes from our **** coach doing what he does. Which 80% of the time is nothing.


When did I claim that was going to happen? Also..... honestly nvm. I would pick OKC but If healthy enough I know we can beat them.

Never said you did.

But losing to those teams seems reasonable to you but certainly not me. Coach would have to take the fall for that.

They need to start showing some championship level basketball. I haven’t seen it. They need to finish this in 5 games.

Need to go through games like this. Learn, and move on. We all knew the magic were not going to go down without a fight

This team melts against physicality. Knicks might not be that type of team in the next round. I think Cleveland can give them a run if they don’t bring their best.

Whenever the opponent scores 8+ points while we score nothing, call a timeout. Very simple, very precise. Let one of the guys sitting behind the bench keep the log of this. I mean, this guy is so clueless about the timeouts.

That 3rd quarter was the **** of the year. Worse brand of basketball. Softzingis needs to toughen up.

Do you only watch the Celtics and nobody else? That is the only way you can make that claim without trolling.

Feels like Franz Wagner is shooting 100% this series when Porzingis guards him. Getting to the rim and scoring at ease over him. Gotta be better than this. Celtics need to move the ball and play their style of game like the regular season way too cute with the same miss match iso plays over and over

Where are all the "we should trade Jrue" now?

Guy is more important than his stats.

KP was horrific for someone 7' 3".

Here we go again.

As if the majority here didn't predict Celtics in 5.

It's not the talent, it's the style of play.

If it's just all about talent then the Suns should be in the playoffs.

Orlando mucking up the game is bothering the Cs.

The Cs just have to adapt.

I agree. If the Celtics don't win this series, they won't win any others this postseason either.

Just bounce back.

Cs have been doing that all season.

Return to Boston Celtics
