Celtics (2-3) at Knicks (3-2) Round 2 Game 6 5/16/25

[scaryjerry]

Celtics lost this series due to JT AND KP injuries.

That said, Knicks are not good enough, even at full strength, to win a chip this year.

Um the Celtics went down 3-1 with a healthy Tatum. I can?t deal with people that are going to use this as an excuse. The KP illness has certainly been a factor though.

True but if Tatum were healthy I?d have given them a better chance to take the series.  Without KP they weren?t going to beat any of the remaining teams. 

Tough ending to the year, but the second this one ends, my head is 100% future.  What will Brad do? How will JT?s rehab play out?  If KP is here, does he finally recover from what ails him?

They may have lost in 5 with a healthy Tatum. Don?t wanna hear it. They choked away 2 20 point leads at home with a healthy Tatum and lost game 4 with a healthy Tatum playing one of his better games.

I haven?t done this since 2012 ECF Finals Game 6?but I?m shutting this off.

Can we be done with Brown?

What an epic collapse this year.  Gonna blame Joe on this.  Losing back to back 20 point leads is inexcusable

[Phantom255x]

White-Holiday-Porzingis a combined 3-18

Try and get to the half without it being 30 points. And stop arguing with the referee! It just shows how unfocused you are

Where was that foul???

[slamtheking]

Brunson owns Derrick white. Just overpowers him. Jrue is too slow to guard him.

Yeah, for all the talk about how good the backcourt defense is, they've been really bad against Brunson this series. White in particular has looked ineffective regardless of who he has been guarding.

agreed.  White and Jrue's D this series has been horrible.  makes me wish we kept Springer who could really hamper Brunson.  his shooting wouldn't have been any worse than the rest of the team this series

I don't care who wins the title...I just want to see the Knicks destroyed.

Fake ass fans. Unlikeable team.

JB is going to be up to what, 6 TO?s now.. 

He's having to try to do everything himself because nobody else even got off the plane.  I get that it's frustrating watching the guy force his offense and turn the ball over but he's doing it because he's alone.

If I want the team to do one thing, at least screen OG off the guy.  Asking him to go one-on-one with the Knicks' best perimeter defender while the rest of the Celtics catch their beauty sleep is just setting him up for failure.

JB had 12 assists last game and only 2 TO?s. He was driving and kicking the ball to open shooters. He was the reason they won the last game. Complete opposite tonight. JB?s the main reason they are down big.

[ozgod]

That?s just not our night? All the lucky  breaks going in their way

[scaryjerry]

Can we be done with Brown?

Be done with the only player who showed up tonight?
Lol go figure

[celticinorlando]

Cs have quit. Did not expect to win but at least expected some fight.

Big changes coming next season.

[blink]

Holiday, white, Pritchard and Hauser are 1-17 from the floor

Yeah you can't compete when no one buy JB can hit a shot.

*Tatum was never healthy and recovering from a severe wrist bone bruise in his shooting hand.

I get that extreme pessimism and negativity is your schtick for whatever reason, but at least get your facts right.
