In my 44 years of being associated with the NBA I never thought I’d see a Boston Celtics team, a franchise with 17 Championships, quit. I know Celtics fans all over the world must be disgusted and devastated. The Miami Heat blew them 128-102 out in Game 3.

Wow. You know your team sucks when Magic Johnson calls you out. He never tweets this stuff. LOL

Seeing Magic tweet anything this harsh is quite shocking. He’s usually very gentle

He followed it up with:

“It’s time for the Boston Celtics to make major changes.”

He's not wrong.

clean house.

when a hated rival says that it shows respect. he can see we are in disarray. a hated rival cares and is more embarassed about us than some of our own players.

that is bad,,,,,, real bad look brad.

Agreed. Larry Bird can't even watch this. Bill Russell must feel embarrassed up there. Magic Johnson's tweet nailed it. Clean house, maybe clean Brad out too.

This def has Wyc's attention now.

yup. wyc needs to be drug over the coals. can brad. fine. whatever it takes. there has to be better GM's out there with more experience.

In my mind, Wyc has lost credibility. His prime directive is running the business and avoiding spending.  He clearly kicked Brad upstairs to save money (he was/is still under contract). He let the TPE's expire. His "fireworks" comment from years ago was BS then and it's BS now.

Do you still believe?

Do you still believe?

No.. not unless they get.to a gm 7.

[Celtics2021]

I believe that they didn’t completely quit, which was nice to see.  They need to be even better in Game 5, because Miami is going to bring it, but I appreciated the effort tonight.

[ozgod]

[dang] right I still believe! I will keep believing until we are eliminated after game 4 

I get to believe for a 5th game 

[CelticSooner]

I believe this team is too much of a rollercoaster. Who knows what happens on Thursday.

[RJ87]

Never stopped.

Honestly that fact they didn't quit was more important than winning the game. Had they just not showed up, we would have to question tatum's leadership and fire. At least we know that's not a ? now. There is growth here and we can see progress, maybe even a jump in maturity. one =

Anyway if and a BIG IF we manage to get this to a game 7, then I'll start getting tense over these games, Right now, gm 5 and maybe 6 gets looked at like an exhibition game. No pressure, just observe and hope to see signs that the team is going to come back  better.

Perk and Eddie House both think Miami is going to go back to the zone big time and wall off the paint completely. They don't think we will shoot that well from 3 again. I think they have to be prepared to take the midrange shots that Miami are giving them.

Most important thing is to not turn the ball over.

It all comes down to our defense, if we defend and push, we wont have to deal with their zone as much.

If Kendrick Perkins told me he thought that water was wet I would seriously consider the alternative.

Looks like we’re down to winning 3 in a row now. Happy for the team, but I feel for the armchair overreactors and the degenerate gamblers who were hoping for a sweep. Sorry guys.

I do not belive, but a feel a bit better that we did not lose 4:0. 1 game at a time now. Let s try and win one more.
