Brad Stevens: “I’ve never been a part of a team that’s solely reliant on whether you make shots or not ... and right now that’s our deal.”

Seriously coach ?!

WHAT.................THE.....................F

[Somebody]

I Am considering the ‘kyrie is not right for this team’ narrative. I may jump on board.

YEP

HE IS THE ONE MAKING US TAKE AND MISS ALL THOSE THREES!

 

That’s not what I am saying.

shhhh you are going to get attacked.

Doesn't matter about Kyrie anymore, it's Brad...his coaching is horrible at this point, it's sabotage. I'd keep Kyrie over Brad all day.

Especially if it's Kyrie + the potential of keeping AD long-term vs Brad

I couldn't even care less about AD rn, it's about not completely wasting the talent of Jaylen and actually coaching this team up to their ability in the playoffs. Need to focus on the now imo, this team can play with the right coaching.

I can't focus on the now when all we do is play garbage, lol. Too depressing when I know how good we should be.

Showing no improvement throughout the course of the season is ridiculous. Only players who have improved over the season are JB, Kyrie (mostly playmaking), Hayward (efficiency) and Smart. Most of the others have all regressed. The vets like Al and Baynes are solid and consistent, which is exactly what we ask for. But Rozier, Tatum, Morris and Theis have all gotten significantly worse. Blame falls at the feet of Brad.

That's why we need a new coach now to salavage whatever we have left for this playoffs, or have Ainge smack some sense into Brad.

I'd be incredibly surprised if the former happened. Who knows about the latter

We can only hope I guess.

I really don't get why Brad has regressed so much. I get that he had to add Hayward and Irving back into the mix, but he basically had his entire team replaced the offseason we got Kyrie, and we started off 16-2 or something like that. I'm really hoping we can get AD for pennies on the dollar, and this season can just be a bad dream.

This is where I'm at entirely. It's just baffling to me

Well that's your fault for having a 3-point small ball philosophy. Your indecision to add a big into the mix doomed this team. Your poor time management and drawing board is abysmal. Your decision to keep starting Morris over Brown is laughable and humiliating.

Brad needs to go, and go fast. Along with Rozier and Morris.

[gpap]

Just got back from the game and all I can say is I just want this season to be over with, playoffs included.

And right now I could honestly care less who's on the team next season or who's coaching.

[SparzWizard]

This team is depressing like that 2015-2016 Celtics team.

If not, worse. At least that team actually had grit and fire and flamed out at the very end.

Sorry you had to witness that in person. Brutal

[Somebody]

Anywhere I can see Brad's postgame press conference?

cannot argue with any of this glad to see more people waking up.

Yes it was. LaMarcus Aldridge was literally doing whatever he wanted out there, even with Baynes defending him. And this Davis Bertans kid...I don't know where Popovich found him, but he sealed the deal with three consecutive threes like it was nothing.

Seems like he’s saying their defense sucks and they aren’t making plays. Can’t disagree with that

I liked Bertans going into this season, but Pop has turned him into an absolute laser from deep. Hence the nickname "Latvian Laser" I 'spose

I am no expert but I know basketball is still a big man's game. It helps a lot to have height and bigs. Celtics do not have enough size and dont play they size the have. Celtics play small ball.

That's Danny Ainge's fault, 100%
