Brown's accomplishments and milestones in the regular season means nothing when they/he folded ridiculously in the playoffs. 2022 Finals and 2023 ECF Game 7, and now this first-round series with the 76ers. I haven't even gotten to those 2017-2020 days yet. He's been in the league for 10 years and he still has tunnel vision and bad handles?

Joke Mazzulla can kick rocks; don't want him anywhere near Boston. Start interviewing new coaches. I heard Tom Thibs is available. Mike Budenholzer, or even JVG...he is a voice we need and demands accountability.

Brad also may need to be put on a short leash; guy has been here for 12 years and there's been a lot of playoff failures under his time both as a head coach and GM.

Really good points.

Most of us just think of Brad as the absolute best at roster management and he has done some very good things. Getting us out of the chokehold multi-luxury tax prison we were in was worth a "gap" year. But then we became so hopeful because of the regular season .............. we forgot how incompetent our coach is in the playoffs.

The biggest question is ....... will ownership step in and force Mazzulla out because Brad doesn't seem to get it. Probably because he has a similar basketball philosophy as Joe.

Not probably. He literally built the roster to shoot 3s. It is his philosophy. If Joe wasn?t doing what Brad wanted, he wouldn?t be here. Stevens is the boss. He gave Joe the job.  🤯
Quoting Nick from the now locked Ime thread:

At some point you have to blame the performance on the court on the players on the court. Every loss is not the coach's fault and every win isn't because of the players.
