    Joe Mazzulla officially named head coach

    And really it was the offensive execution in the second half that did them in. 40 point halves aren't going to cut it. I have a hard time blaming Joe for anything that happened last night. I think the players just kind of shit themselves at home yet again and it's on them.

    Joe Mazzulla officially named head coach

    I will eat an Amazon Wild Harvest Log if they lose this series. Any conversation about firing Joe is entirely academic.

    Celtics vs Da Culture - Round 1 (FIGHT!)

    Losing Game 3 against this mediocre Heat team and locking in an uphill battle 6 or 7 game series would be an abject disaster. They need to take care of business in Miami and come back to Boston with the opportunity to close them out in 5. They cannot keep playing 6 or 7 game series against...

    Celtics vs Da Culture - Round 1 (FIGHT!)

    Oh yeah, I completely agree with that. That was an off the wall take from KOC. I think I just misunderstood your point.

    Caleb Martin 5-6 from deep. I don't give a shit how bad the defense is or isn't the horseshoe up this scrub's ass is just incredible. It's literally unbelievable.

    Celtics vs Da Culture - Round 1 (FIGHT!)

    I don't think this is accurate. There were a few wild gamethread takes, but for the most part I think everyone here is understandably and reasonably frustrated without going to extremes.

    Celtics vs Da Culture - Round 1 (FIGHT!)

    Yep. So much talk about how things are different this year and "we're not messing around" and it took all of two games for them to shit themselves on their home floor against a mediocre opponent. I feel like I shouldn't be surprised but I am genuinely surprised. If they win the next 3 I'll feel...

    Celtics vs Da Culture - Round 1 (FIGHT!)

    No definitely not, but -32 in 30 minutes is kinda nuts even if the stat is deeply flawed.

    Reminds me of last year's Game 5 loss to Atlanta, possibly the worst team in the playoffs, at home with a chance to close it out. It's just inexplicable to me that they lay these eggs at home to mediocre teams. Red flag then, red flag now.

    Celtics vs Da Culture - Round 1 (FIGHT!)

    I know single game +/- yada yada yada, but -32 in 30 minutes is wild. Clearly the book on him is be physical and it worked to perfection tonight.

    Celtics vs Da Culture - Round 1 (FIGHT!)

    Porzingis killed Miami in the post in the regular season games but they were hacking him tonight and he didn't get the whistle. This isn't surprising but Porzingis' struggles against physical playoff defense concerns me.

    Celtics vs Da Culture - Round 1 (FIGHT!)

    Honestly I'm not even that concerned about the defense. It wasn't perfect but let's not pretend that Miami didn't pull some abnormally hot shooting out of their asses. 50+% on volume is an outlier, and at the end of the day they only gave up 105 or 106 points before the end of game free throws...

    Celtics vs Da Culture - Round 1 (FIGHT!)

    This is where I'm at. If they laid off the gas up 2-0 or 3-0 and Miami took one at home - ok that happens. Don't love it but it happens. But to get outworked like that at home is just so disappointing.

    They didn't lay eggs against vastly inferior opponents at home though. To not match the other team's intensity at home is concerning because we saw the exact same shit last year. It's perplexing.

    April 24. 2024 Beat the Heat

    Obviously they’ll win the series but two games in and we already have our first odd effort. Refused to close out to shooters all night, played at an extremely slow pace, especially when down late, and tried to go 1 on 1 matchup hunting instead of running offense. We all saw it but apparently...

    I’m sorry but there’s no universe in which this shouldn’t have been a sweep. And absolutely no universe it should be 1-1 going to Miami.
