Love when Tatum attacks the rim!

[SparzWizard]

HEY JOE BLOW

U WANNA EXPERIMENT?

DO IT NEXT GAME AND REST ALL STARTERS

DO NOT IMPLEMENT THIS GARBAGE AFTER HAVING a 30 point lead

Joe's arrogance is driving you as insane as it is me.
Sometimes I just want to punch that stupid look off his face.

Time to hop on the good 'ol Joe thread tonight!

Tonight shows the value of white

Tonight shows that keeping Joe Mazzulla as coach is inexplicable.

LOL

Springer has a net negative +/- for the game, but honestly I think his on-ball defense changed the pace of the game in our favor.  The Hawks scoring has slowed down considerably.  Don't care too much that he missed that 3.  He did his job IMO.

Dominque Wilkins is a salty little man

Talking about the Celtics like they are some scrubs

My God, Tatum. Good to see you take some force.

But we have went back to a bunch of iso. Have to get back to playing with more ball and player movement.

Guys, I'm no Joe apologist but these guys need practice in close games. These end of bench guys need burn as well.

We're going to end with the overall 1 seed.

It's smart to treat these last few games as a glorified practices

Tonight shows the value of white

Well, this is what ticks me off most about Joe's decisions tonight. We're literally playing with a single guard in the rotation tonight. Like, we're already going to be doing a ton of experimentation just by virtue of Jrue and White being out. Why Joe decides to go way beyond this and start throwing in random end of bench guys and letting long runs go unanswered is beyond me.

It's like he doesn't appreciate the nuances of what missing starters/rotation players does to the chemistry and play.

"nuances" ??

He doesn't understand the most basic fundamentals of coaching that are staring him in the face.
He wouldn't know a nuance if it fell on his head.

I just don’t like the trend of blowing leads because they get so disinterested

[celticinorlando]

Three missed free throws this quarter

[Boston Garden Leprechaun]

come on win this game please

[Boston Garden Leprechaun]

LETS WIN TONIGHT

IN SPITE OF JOE

[celticinorlando]

Dumb foul

[SCeltic34]

I hate these Tatum iso's.   Way too slow.

[jpotter33]

The Hawks may legitimately have the worst broadcast team in the NBA. Just awful announcers.
