PLAYOFFS, Rnd 2, Gm 2 – Cavaliers (0) @ Celtics (1) – 7PM, Thurs, May 9, 2024

[Fierce1]

Hey guys - what's your favorite tactical move from Joe in the second half?

Finals!

Right?

What are you laughing at? You were here spitting your little positive BS all year. Don’t back track now. Talk up Joe and this **** team..

I've been positive all year, but I'm not the one guaranteeing the finals is a sure thing for the Celtics.

In fact, I know you saw my repeated posts about the Cs having a bigger chance of winning it next year, right?

I'm positive about this whole situation, but I never guaranteed a finals for the Celtics.

It was just yesterday that I said the Celtics have a tendency to shoot themselves in the foot.

I'm starting to think Smart wasn't the real reason why we can't get over the hump.

That boys not going out like these pre madonnas! He’s going down swinging, where’s the Heart/Intensity with this group?! If the three balls not falling, we fold. Soft a$$ group

[zoyathedestroya]

Tatum has 25/7/6 on 17 shots, 1 turnover. His issue is that he’s only 2-5 from three, he should have taken 10+ tonight.

Mitchell has 29/6/6 on 18 shots, 1 turnover.

Maybe if we actually consistently ran the offense through him, things would have looked different offensively. Instead it’s an equal opportunity offense, which is fine when the other team can’t score.

My concern, which I’ve brought up repeatedly, is that this team has lost its hierarchy offensively, and I was concerned that they wouldn’t adapt when the game called for it.

The game called for it tonight, and nothing changed.

LOL.

Where’s your passive aggressive posts about all the mistakes White made tonight?

Anyone can do that. I won't even feel the need to defend him when he has a subpar game.

[BRUNiNHO91]

Spoiler:

There are 3 posters who f****** annoyingly beached to me all regular season when I Critiqued our coach.

I haven't forgotten who to **** you are.. You piece of miserable ****..

It's like boston is finding a different **** way to be even more pathetic than a year before.. Especially the last two playoffs..

I haven’t forgotten either. Funny how the little bitches don’t even reply now.

But but but..64 wins!

Cut it out, now! You can say what you need to without the extra.

[Red2]

Boo! This sucks

[BK_2020]

Why do people act like Tatum is the only superstar in the league that gets this much attention on defense? What a weak ass excuse to give him. Some of y'all coddle Tatum like a child.

Jaylen Brown has .495 TS% and he's one of the better ones tonight. Yet people will say we lost because Tatum is soft.

[fallguy]

We let teams get so comfortable than wonder why they can shoot so well. When it's easy and they get comfortable it happens. They Play harder on defense than us and make shots less comfortable.

We were 4th best in opponent 3p% and 3rd in opponent fg% until tonight.

Five games against Miami will do that for you.

[fallguy]

White was bad. But that's pretty rare. Not worried about a repeat.

[leper-con]

No offence , no defence , no good coach

[PierceFan4ever]

This is such a soft ass group. Anytime the game is tight they fold. This game was over in the early third.

[NYCelticsfan136]

The other team shooing over 54 percent and the Celtics at 41 percent lol.

The Cavs shot 41-26 last game.

If you think they have a better chance next year than this year you’re more clue less than I thought you were. If Jimmy Butler was there they probably would have lost in round 1! This team sucks.

[zoyathedestroya]

Disgusting. Starts with Joe and JT.

[MaxwellSmart]

Celtics relaxed after hearing how they were gonna Sweep....They will NEVER Learn.

And I get lambasted when I say the Cs will not win if the fans believe the coach is bad, JT is soft, not a true alpha, and Cs can't execute in the clutch.

I mean if all those things are true, we should be expecting something like this to happen, right?

[NYCelticsfan136]

They should have gotten booed in the end.

[The Corey's]

Just your casual 30 point home playoff loss to a team missing two of their starters.

Nothing to see here.

[BK_2020]

Jrue, White and Jaylen 1 for 16 from three tonight. Tatum should be ashamed.

[MaxwellSmart]

Leaving guys wide open for 3s, just like Game 2 vs, Miami.
