Celts are the same team that won last year w a better Pritchard

We’re a better team than last year and a healthier team

I think the 20 of 40 threes comments was not a criticism on coaching so much as it was that the celts were hitting at a high rate

We need to play w more balance and a better start. We’re still in comtrol

Did you watch the clip? First thing he said was “20-40 3s, a lot we need to discuss tomorrow”. That seems like saying “strategy didn’t work and needs to change” to me.

Will Thibs learn?

Joe Mouslla is idiot but Mitch Robinson is a bad free throw shooter who doesn’t work on his free throw. It’s time to take the training wheels off Mitch Robinson and actually work on the basics like free throw shooting.

Anthony Mason got his free throws up to 73%. Granted he used a very unorthodox shooting technique but who cares if it goes in?

I got no hope in Mitch Robinson free throw shooting, I have better chance at winning the lottery at this rate.

Even after missing 8 free throws Mitchell Robinson was still only −3 in his 19 minutes. This is what I've been talking about all series. Mitchell Robinson needs to start. He needs to start so that when he's plays he's not going to put the team over the limit when he gets fouled. The Celtics won't foul him and then he can be more productive in his time.

I said before the game Deuce Mcbride needs to play more. In 19 minutes he was just −1. this loss is not on the players; it's on the Thibs. It's been true all season, the lineup dieta shows that the starters are not a good unit together. All of the top units for net rating have Deuce McBride in them. If they want to win the series. they need to play Mitchell Robinson and McBride more than 20 minutes a game.

Basically every combination of our core 7 guys has a good Net Rtg except to 5 starters lol

This is hard to watch and definitely looks like full blown KAT DROP and not just miscommunication on KATs part

Splitting was always the goal so we can still take care of business

Win game 4 the Knicks are up 3-1. I predicted Knicks in 6 before the series and sticking with it.

Sounds crazy but if KAT comes off the bench it prevents him from going into early foul trouble and Celtics can’t do Hack a Mitch for at least first 10 minutes of the 1st qtr.

Media will have a field day but f ck em

If I was coaching (give it time), my starting five would be:
MR
KAT
OG
Bridges
Brunson

With my bench being
Cam
Deuce
Hart
Precious.

Get it done and we losing 6 and Thibs gets fired .

But seriously, how much can it hurt to try for a half?

Whenever I start feeling good about the coaching of this team, they do something that makes no sense like that. It’s all a surprise with this team, who also seems to play uptight at home for some reason.

From what I’m seeing online it seems they went into this game intent on NOT switching anything with Brunson or KAT, resulting in lots of KAT drops and Celtics just bombing early 3s with no resistance. First two games Brunson and KAT held their own on the switch. Brunson made huge defensive plays switched on Brown last game down the stretch. And KAT got into foul trouble today anyway. Mind boggling “adjustment” from Thibs today to change the only thing that was actually working in Knicks favor.

Not switching Jalen.Kat is exactly what we did ALL year so if that was move that was just laughable —- laughing so hard I’m going to cry.
