Celtics (0-2) at Heat (2-0) ECF Game #3 5/21/23

I want them swept so changes have to be made

[ozgod]

Every night a different role player steps up for Miami gotta give them credit, they looked terrible in the regular season but look great now. Makes a mockery of the seeding system really

[Chief]

No answers...they have a cheat code for our defense.

Maybe try zone...it couldn't hurt

[Roy H.]

They're clearly playing harder than us, too. Getting the loose balls with ease.

Yeah, beyond the unreal shooting -- which you think would come back down to earth -- the Heat are just playing with more poise, they're playing harder and hungrier, they're moving the ball, they're confident even when they're down.  They've been the opposite of the Celtics.

[blink]

Our pride, along with our def, was left back at game 7 with Philly.

[Atzar]

Nothing about our performance that deserves praise.

We’re getting poor shots, missing them, playing soft defense, giving substandard effort, and whining too much.  This ain’t it.

[liam]

We're literally just ttrying to shoot Hail Mary threes to get back in the game. No defense whatsoever. No energy.

Joe has lost the lockerroom within a year. Amazing.

We are getting fouled multiply times on drives with no calls!

[Phantom255x]

Idk, at this point is it really a bad idea to try Hauser and Muscala out there? Change something up

BECAUSE THIS IS NOT WORKING 

[Who]

This is a no-show effort from the Cs.

What Mazzula needs to do now is find a lineup that will play with energy and effort. That is it. That is the baseline. If you can't that, you can't win. Find and play anyone who will give you effort.

That means benching some of your regulars. Start with Brogdon.

[lrybrd]

Maybe we should stop sagging off of 3 point shooters.  Wake up Joe!!!!

[angryguy77]

Idk why were letting then drive with ease.  Joe's scheme is to hope they miss and we're in place for the rebound.

Its not really the norm though. They almost lost to Atlanta then got hot at the right time.

Guess we shouldn't have overlooked that 1st round series vs the bucks

[Phantom255x]

Butler has 2 points, and we're down 13.

Love + Robinson + Lowry have combined for 13 already before halftime too. Unbelievable

[jpotter33]

Stop gifting the regulars playing time when they do not deserve to keep their PT.

Be Brave.

That would take a competent coach to make such a decision. Clearly he's going to keep doing the same thing over and over, because it's clearly been working so well for us.

This is the guy that has benched GWill for much of the last half of the season.

[Who]

All 3 of our combo guards are disappointing tonight. Brogdon has been the worst. D White too passive. Smart peripheral. None of them are bringing it.
