Warm up the plane and go back home. This is downright shameful.

Everyone disappeared this series

SCREW U BRAD

U SHOULD BE FIRED FOR HIRING A THREE RING CIRCUS CLOWN

Well, on the bright side there's no possible way you can retain Joe after this kind of embarrassing meltdown, especially with as much attention as there is on him getting outcoached this series.

Really wondering how a Nick Nurse looks on this team. He seems like he'd hold them accountable like they need to be.

I hope we get swept so management feels the pressure and fire Joe

[jambr380]

That's it for me. Have a good night everybody

G Vincent 18pts
C Martin 13pts
Jimmy 12pts
Bam 11pts
Strus 10pts
D Robinson 10pts

6 players in double digits halfway through Q3.

[Phantom255x]

C’s had 13 point leads in both Games 1 and 2. Blew them in minutes

Miami got a 12 point lead in the 2nd, they built it to 27 now.

Huge difference in coaching and effort

tatum has that thousand yard stare and jaylen is mia. these dudes are SOFT.

“humbly, one of the best basketball players in the world.” lololol

[Dchuck]

That's it for me. Have a good night everybody 

Yea, I'm done.  Not worth watching anymore

[celticinorlando]

Good night folks. I’m too tired to watch anymore of this.

Massive changes need to be made starting with the coach. He’s just not ready.

[cltc5]

This is not coaching.  This is a weak minded selfish team.  Think kyrie Irving called this crew out once and look at where we are.  They don’t want to win, they want to show up.  That’s all this team has ever done.  Blow it up and get some ballers in here.

[TheReaLPuba]

Ppl still blaming Joe need to get a dose of reality.

Coaches can only do so much.

His players are sucking

[Phantom255x]

I sort of wonder if this team may have "peaked" in Game 7 of last series. They had to go 6 games against ATL, then grind it out in 7 against PHI in a series where they were also down 1-0 and 3-2 at different points. They obviously showed up late in Game 6, then blew doors in Game 7 with JT's 51.

But now this series, they just look off. Tatum hasn't been bad but he certainly hasn't been as effective in the 4th, and Jaylen/Smart/Horford have mostly been bad too.

Another example of this might be the Warriors last round. Remember when Curry put up 50 in Game 7 against SAC on the road in the first round. Impressive effort, but they may have "peaked" too. They were up 3-2, but surprisingly blew Game 6 at home which was telling (they usually never do that) and went to a Game 7. Then next round against LAL, Klay is mostly bad, Poole is useless, and Curry only had like 2 great games but the others were mostly meh. I didn't think LAL dominated them, GSW just looked sort of checked out themselves and Curry couldn't carry them another round.

I'm not sure JT can this round either unless a few others wake up, particularly Jaylen. There's still time, but Jaylen this round is like Tatum in last year's Finals which isn't ideal.

Yep. The way they’ve looked this series, they peaked in Game 7 last round

[Who]

Down 27pts now
