You can call me a lot of things, but Brad Stevens needs to be fired. It's the reality. He just isn't the right coach for this team. He's like another Brett Brown- great on a rebuilding team but with all these star players he's had he just can't get it done. He's not screaming or lighting a fire under this team's bums.

He's done, in my eyes. Will be surprised if the Celtics win this series, but doubt it now. Should have been down 3-1.
Might as well watch another team at this point if you feel so strongly. It's not happening.

Hahahaha. Needs to be fired. Get a grip. Your in the moment posts are often out there, but this is too insane to not be called what it is. The series isn't even over yet you're acting like this. Didn't realise Brad Stevens caused Jaylen and Marcus to shoot it like Tony Allen

He'll go cheer on the Lakers like he has all year in the season and playoff threads

Hot take: JB cost us two games in a row

Fair..

Hotter take: Tatum needs to put up 30-40 in a game like this with the all star/ superstar talk surrounding him.

Too bad all those timeouts that Brad saved during the season were not available for use today.

Well Jaylen was 2-11, but Tatum, Smart, Kemba were all 1-6 so percentage points wise he was the best shooter.....If they shoot 38.6, and the c's shoot 20.0%, you aren't gonna win.

Now its a series.

Stevens got completely outcoached tonight.

Checkers vs. chess.

Will he make adjustments for G5 — and will it matter?

We shoot at anywhere even close to our regular 3 point % and we win this.

I do get some pleasure though out of playoff losses from the regular sooks that populate (infest?) the forum though, that can be almost as entertaining as a win.

Tatum doesn’t put up enough points to warrant being a future superstar talk. He doesn’t take over games like people make him out to

Very very fair take I think.

He's 8/30 from 3 in this series (27%) and has shot the 3 at 15% over the last two games.

Some frustrating moments. Prob the worst is that our guys just looked so p---ed off and incoherent on certain plays. Honestly, Raptors were a better team today, deserved a win.
I mean, you can't have an easy path to the finals without going through difficulties. And it seems that Toronto's mentality is a notch above ours.
Guys need to regroup, chill a little bit and have fun out there, not a glaring irritation by how things are going. It's all even now.

 7-35 from 3 in a 7 point loss.  That gives me confidence. It sucks we blew the 3-0 chance but this series is far from over. This team will not quit. Toronto having no depth will wear them down as the series progresses and they’ll go back to cold shooting. Go Cs!

He had done a fantastic job on Siakam but that also went out the window today

Glad you can enjoy us losing, good for you. Real champion.

If only everyone was such a clear-headed cool customer like you ::)
