Now that this season is over, I want to get some things off of my chest.
There's a big part of me that is just happy this is over. I'll always root for the Celtics, but I never really believed in this group and I never connected with them the way I usually do. This isn't the time to get into why - frankly I want to get away from this team for a while - but this is easily the fewest games I've watched in a season in the past 15 years. When I did watch them, they were a much greater source of frustration than they were of enjoyment. Feels strange to say that about a team with two All-NBA players, the 6MOTY, and the previous DPOY. Yet here we are.
I don't know what moves Brad will make this offseason regarding the coaching staff and the roster. Perhaps even more importantly, I don't know what players will do to come back better next season. But whatever happens, I sincerely hope I can get back to enjoying Celtics basketball come October.
Yeah, same here. It really was a chore to watch this team this year, and it was hard to connect with and enjoy them.
Everything from the inept coaching to the inconsistent effort and entitlement made this team joyless - very similar vibes to the 2019 Kyrie season and the 2021 giving up on Brad season.
This team needs a strong leader to get the best out of them. Joe isn't it. But I do think it's time to move on from Brown. Take advantage of some desperate teams in Portland, Atlanta, and/or Toronto. Simply too flawed to devote that much money to him.
It sounds cheesy and like an old timer ( guess I am) but despite this teams’ talent, I agree. The heart wasn’t there. The maniacs among the superstars are usually the ones winning titles. KG created that culture. It’s intimidating to an opponent when they see the other team really is together and they wavy it bad.
The Celtics should never have been in this considering the raid t disparity and I do think the coaching is bad. I dint like the 3 heavy approach s d don’t understand why Rob can’t explore a 10 footer or even a 1 power dribble . Never sn arts of unless the

( other than a lob) What are we waiting for? He’s not capable of this? I’d be surprised. But maybe it’s just that Al ost religious devotion to analytics.
