Nice Kelly.  Now let's get this ball.

how's that dose of reality taste cblog

 

[blink]

This seems like even worse than last years playoffs.  It felt like we gave more effort last year.

[hpantazo]

Something's wrong with this team and it isn't just IT grieving, some chemistry issues going on.

[crimcartel]

Seriously. Glass Bradley and Crowder need to be dealt for Jimmy Butler. Enough of the bull****. Those two and the number one pick. Then sign Hayward

****. Yes Bradley time is done here not because he isn't good.. because injuries are becoming frequent.

Burn this roster to the ground

[Chief]

Team is going to have to look VERY different heading into next season.

You can't get embarrassed like this in the playoffs and run it back.

Top 4 pick and a max contract please!

The funny part is, we are playing our starters with their bench and still can't cover lol xD this is a joke

[Eja117]

It's pretty terrible in the playoffs when your only 4 players that showed anything at all are all young bench guys

[PhoSita]

How do we feel about Brad Stevens after this?

Before this series the idea of Brad's job being in jeopardy, or even the notion that he might not be the coach in Boston as long as he wants, would have seemed absolutely ludicrous.

This, though, is a major embarrassment.  What does it mean to have a "great coach" if your team can't play up to potential, let alone exceed expectations, in the post-season?

[ashanm10]

Those pump fakes tho are the lol of the year

[jpotter33]

Lol Stevens looked speechless, shell-shocked, and like he had no idea what to say in that interview.

The players deserve all the criticism they are going to get, but no one should forget that Stevens sat back and allowed this team to slack off over and over again this whole season.  There is absolutely no reason trading Sully for Al and losing Turner should have caused our defense to fall off like it has.

And I think Stevens needs to pay a little more attention to how San Antonio runs their offense.  Yeah, they do the read-and-react thing but Pop also make bleepin' sure that players know their roles and stay within those roles.  Not everyone on the Spurs has a green light to chuck up threes whenever they want.

Mike

Yep. People wanted to ignore our terrible D because we were still winning for the most part. Look where it has got us now.

It's time to get rid of some guys that are all talk.  Looking at you Jae.

[slamtheking]

Our offense is so predictable.

you mean "IT or chuck a 3"?

[celticinorlando]

Can't lose each year in the playoffs in round one. No progress is being made
