Post-Game Notes: BOS 108, BKN 130 (0-2)

[Triple7]

Well, if there are any racist remarks being yelled, I hope those responsible are caught and get a lifetime ban from Celtics games. I want the crowd to give Kyrie hell, but there’s no need to cross the line. Plenty of good material to dish out.

- he lied about coming back
- he recruited KD to Brooklyn while he was wearing a Celtic uniform
- Uncle Drew was a a terrible **** movie that I forced myself to sit through, just to show support
- he treated Mike Gorman like a nobody

Those in attendance better not stop destroying him every second of the game. BOO HIM EVERY TIME HE GETS NEAR THE BALL!!

As good as that sounds, i think Kyrie don’t give a **** about that. Probably would give us the middle finger and laugh, after blowing us out. What i want from our guys, is at least put up a fight. Another blow out loss, would make us just look like stupid, bitter fans.

It's comments like that from Kyrie or a minority group that put causes backward in my opinion.

I won't claim to have much personal experience or knowledge, but when people throw words like racism around to mask other issues they give those who want to keep minority groups down ammunition. It also clouds the issue and takes away from the important points.

Don't get me wrong, I imagine all black players have copped racist comments everywhere including Kyrie in Boston, but this is a classic case of Kyrie not being able to admit when he's done things wrong and deflecting.

It's poor form on many fronts but not surprising from him.

Sadly, it's in some ways a smart move to reframe the conversation.

Not much to say about game 2, other than I want Brad to be more daring.

[JHTruth]

The TT start was a disaster. Got them off on the wrong foot, they were getting killed early, and never recovered.

Another TERRIBLE decision by Brad. Totally fed up

[return2glory]

Really sick of Blaise Brad

It’s spelled Danny.

Ainge has gone from a top 5 GM to a bottom 5 GM in the last 3 years.

He signed Kemba who is 6’0. That’s fine because Kemba is an all-star. But to then draft 5’11 Edwards and then turn him him a SG? Then he drafts 5’10 Waters in the same draft. Then he follows that up by drafting 6’1 Pritchard.

He drafts a Shooting Guard that cant shoot in Romeo. He drafts Nesmith that’s known for his shooting but shot 32% from 3 in his rookie seaosn. He drafts a 6’6 PF with short arms in Grant.

He botched the Hayward situation in the offseason. Then he let Kanter, who was our best rebounder and low post scorer walk. Not to mention, besides Smart, Kanter was the only other tough guy on this team.

We are a soft team, with no bench and many wasted picks that have set this team back.

[Saint Lazarus]

What does any of this have to do with what I said?

cave and truth were talking about why boston isn't a free agent destination.

implying that racism is part of the equation, when LA pulled a "****'s-apartment" stunt on Lebron's house and he STILL signed there, doesn't make any sense

Again...the **** does that have to do with what I said at all?

I'm not going to be holding your hand and walking you through a basic conversation

Kyrie is such a bitch. My gosh man.

[return2glory]

You got it half right. TT was a bad signing. Another one of Danny’s mistakes over the last 3 years.

TT is horrible on the defensive end and has not offense. People will look at this game and see him with 15 and 10 and think he played well. His defense was horrible.

I wish we could play Rob 35 minutes a game but his body can turn hold up.

This is a bad roster. One of our top 3 guys doesn’t play and we are a .500 team.

The bench has been a joke for 2 years now.

[BRUNiNHO91]

Not sure Robert Williams would have done much to stop Joe Harris hitting 4 three's in like a minute.

TT had 15 and 11 on like 80% shooting. Dude is solid.

Stats wise, most guys besides JT and Pritchard were ok. Still well below average but nothing awful. Just completely outclassed. Hoping that being home helps Pritchard, Nesmith and Tatum find their shots. I feel like we have at least one big offensive game in us as a team.. But apparwntly JT has a groin injury from game 1.. If that's true we are cooked.

[return2glory]

This was a good loss. I don’t want close games. I want us to get blown out and swept. But blow outs mean more of our horrible bench.

Hopefully this will force Ainge to make positive changes to the team this offseason. If not, he needs to retire. He has been pretty bad the last 2-3 years and it’s finally showing.

This season couldn’t come to an end soon enough. Injury after injury. When we needed to finally get healthy going into the last 2 weeks of the season, Brown and Rob went down.

Now Tatum is hurt with a groin and eye injury.

Nah, you're just deflecting. Nothing you posted has anything to do with the issue at hand. Hence why you can't answer the simple question I posed. Not a damn thing you responded with has anything to do with Marcus Smart and others players documented experiences in the city of Boston

[CelticsLV]

Not sure why Tatum is given the excuse of "But he's swarmed!" while at the same time he's touted as a superstar. You actually want to see a superstar then watch Doncic who is picking apart Clippers despite everything they throw at him. This team needs a star playmaker and Harden was that perfect match next to Tatum. Now we can "enjoy" whatever this is and will be.

BTW, Lebron signed there like a year later and Davis requested a trade there shortly after

LA is a bigger market, has nicer weather, more celebrities, and better nightlife. Much easier sell.

I think he’s been decent, I like the Pritchard and Nesmith picks still.... and he still picked RWIII... Waters/Edwards/GWill and trading Bane to get rid of Kanter was a head scratcher for sure. Look at Bane on Memphis.

Jury out on Romeo if he can ever string 20 games in a row.

Fully agree he needs to rebuild the bench and maybe make one big change.

[chrisab123]

Cave and I discussed this in the GT before he even said anything lol.

y'all were throwing everything at the wall

but let's just take the flat earther for his word

I mean, Marcus Smart (a player on OUR team who does great things in the community) is on record saying he's had people call him the N word in Boston. The history is there...

Its **** like this that has people referring to Boston as the most racist city in the world. I mean its not my place whether to say it is or not but if everyone keeps saying things like this are a constant....people need to stop being jackasses and be better human beings.

[FlatearthZorro]

Losing to the nets potentially seven times this season is only going to make this team better for next year.

Go nets and thanks for looking out for the Celtics!

The funny part is that there are posters here who believe this

I don’t get how someone can have watched this entire season and expect anything other than what we saw the last two games.

Yeah these beat downs are turning into a real confidence builder for this team.

Said it 120312030 times. If we'd lose 2 games in the play-ins, we'd have a slight shot at a top 5 pick.. A sure fire top 12 pick, I believe and everything would've been just so much better...

Kinda scary how disinterested Tatum looks.

Happy that Fournier and Walker were kinda close to what I wanted them to be...

Smart with 2 good games on offense in a row.

[FlatearthZorro]

YES

he'd be RGM slaughtered after one game day.

He's brutal and I think that he's the reason the Wizards lost to us.

20 pts on 18 shots, 4 TOs... I said it before, he's Smart on roids, he also stat pads really hard and I can't stomach it. Just not my thing.

Kyrie is probably one of the more entitled dudes in the league along with LBJ. It's funny that the dudes who experience racism the least, talk the most. As for Irving himself, dude's baiting, cause he's trying to save his ass. His ego is very frail.

Ask Garnett about the racism in Boston. Watch his interview about Boston before his HOF enshrinment. Ask Ray.

This is just sad. Expected but sad...

We are so overmatched that it hurts to watch...

[amory87]

Genius move by Kyrie tbh. I cannot stand the guy, but kudos for knowing how to preemptively kick C's fans in the nuts before everyone's even allowed back into the arena.

I'm just hoping for a sweep. I hate this roster and this season and I don't want Danny getting any ideas that this build is anything other than a complete disaster. Let's just get it over with
