2025 NBA PLAYOFFS East Semifinals: #2 Boston Celtics vs #3 New York Knicks (NYK leads 2-0)

[LFGK]

First it was 4-0, guaranteed. Then it was 4-1, for sure. Now it’s “it could end 2-4”

If Mikal is the worst Knick, it’s even more embarrassing that he cooked the Celtics in the 4th and outscored supposed to be best player in the series, Tatum

I wouldn’t necessarily blame any single Celtic player for their defeats, but if Mazzula doesn’t see his faults on how this two games played out he gotta be the dumbest HC in the league

He pissed away two very comfortable 20 points leads exactly the same way , no game plan , no timely time ousts , if he sees his mistakes Boston wins this series

This would’ve never happened under Udoka , 1 game maybe , 2 in a row , no way

just stop, so many embarrassing takes about Mazzulla. You do realize the Celtics never won a title with Udoka right? He's a total fraud that just lost to in the first round despite having a talent advantage. BTW, who was coaching the Celtics when they built those 20 point leads?

I said both these celtic coaches sucked and got called nuts, what did Udoka do to get crowned? Mazzulla this series is being exposed

it would be wise to win this game if I am the new york knickerbockers. don’t give the celtics one game away from 2-2 back home

New York is not winning this series. Remember that I said that.

Everyone waits until two games finish before voting

Sorry, but this is such a minimizing statement. Of course it would be wise for the Knicks to win game three. Just like it was wise for them to win game one, and game two.

Prior to the series even starting, who really gave the Knicks a chance to win one, let alone two games against Boston? And yet, they earned those wins with hard work despite the odds against them. So to now say, they better win now "or else", is weird.

It's the Celtics who should be feeling ALL the pressure here to win..."or else" - not the Knicks.

If I am Jayson Tatum, I take all the questions, I take all the heat. I'm not getting no sleep. All I'm thinking about is getting back on the court. Don't smile at me, no high fives, I want to take the heart from the Knicks in front of their crowd.....

Luckily we were wise enough to win games 1 & 2, so I'm optimstic we'll be wise enough to win games 3 & 4 as well

First it was that boston fan saying they wouldn't lose a game until the ECF while we'd get bounced by the Pistons.
Then it was The Corey's telling us Boston was gunna win in 5 no matter what.
Now we have this.

...are you going to take a sudden break from posting soon too?

He's not that guy. This isn't Brunson. If Tatum did that he would start bricking before the game even began.

j Brown talking is The
Worst thing he could do

I Really dislike the knicks, specially spike lee ...like the celtics...even I can see The celtics are probably Gonna lose because they have no heart.

It is never a head coach that loses the game When the lead is twenty points... I played a lot of bbaĺl...Never saw it once

[Riverwalk2021]

The Celtics go as Tatum goes. You can blame anybody else you want but he's the guy that has the ball exclusively in his hands when games are decided. I don't think it should be this way but not it's going to change under Mazzulla. These last two 4th quarters from Tatum were historically bad. He couldn't make worse decisions if he was trying. If Tatum goes out like this, he better go on summer vacation where internet and tv don't exist.

I also think the Celtics will need to either fire Mazzulla or trade Brown. I don't think you can move forward not doing one or the other in this salary cap reality. Personally, I think the Celtics need a better X's and O''s coach who can hold the Jays accountable more. You can keep them together and sell them as a contender with a change in coaching style. Coaching matters especially in the POs when the margins shrink.

He could do all this but fact of the matter is he has an absolute monster defending him....

I'm waiting for the corey's return, man forgot where the thread was on the GB, actually we prob won't hear from him with how I think these next 2 games are going to go

I also agree that it would be very wise for the Knicks to outscore the Celtics in Game 3.
