Wyc looked digusted behind the bench... I even saw him give a cut eye towards Kyrie direction a few times during timeouts

changes are coming for sure

Danny tried, but not all trades are going to be home runs

Ultimately I feel that the basketball gods, punished Danny and Celts org, for how IT4 was treated

My guess is the Celtics organization has been keeping a lot of frustrations about Kyrie in house all season, and would secretly be glad to see him go.

Steven's never gained control of this team all year long. He was in charge of X's and O's but little else. Some coaches are best with young teams. They just don't have the gravitas to deal with headstrong veterans...no bite!

The expectations of the Celtic Nation was insane.

When Morris named the bench, the "Bench With Attitude," I should have realized we were doomed.

Everyone from top of the organization on down to us fans got a large piece of humble pie. Team talked a big game but never had the bite to back it up.

Irving will be the first out the door

I doubt Horford returns

CBS is on the hot seat next season

Danny could be after that (if CBS is kept, and Celts can't make it far)

Wyc would be a fool to not investigate the program inside out at that point

Well, I'll say this.

This franchise should apologize to the fans for this gutless performance. I think I speak for many posters on this forum when I say I've spent a ton on the Celts between tickets and my Comcast bill, just so I can get NBC Sports to watch the games.

And this is what we get in return? Awful!

A shot of bourbon sounds good right about now.

Don’t want to sound like a Kentucky Edited.  Profanity and masked profanity are against forum rules and may result in discipline. but bourbon can only be distilled in KY by definition lol

But that's not true! Bourbon has a number of legal requirements to be called bourbon, being made in Kentucky is not one of them.


(I learned all of this in Louisville while taking a tour of the Jim Beam distillery)

In my eyes, the blame pie goes in the following order

-Ainge, for his lack of moves last summer and leading up to the trade deadline
-Stevens, for getting outcoached and failing to lead his team to make adjustments.
-Hayward, for his horrendous play.
-Rozier, for playing like a bonehead.
-Tatum and his regression

Brown and Morris played well during this series and despite all the noise, I don't want to see Kyrie leave and want us to build around him.

He is 100% not right. (source my Jim Beam tour guide in Louisville and an act of congress)

I blame some of this on LeBron, because Kyrie learned under him.   The lack of leadership, quitting early, and blaming others were right  out of LeBron's and now Kyrie's playbook.   I  think, but can't prove that Kyrie poisoned some of the guys against the coach as well.  Kyrie for all this talk of being his own man sure acted like his former team mate.
