Some of these Celtics need to do some soul-searching, starting with HAYWARD.

He should've given this team MORE.

I think he was handicapped by a terrible coaching effort this series.

Brad has been terrible all season. He has just never figured out how to motive this team or handle this roster. He does much better with young guys and selfless stars

Maybe change the thread to-down 3-1 do you believe? We should have seen this coming. This team showed for 82 games they were gutless and their body language showed they didn't care. What did we really expect? As soon as any adversity ht they turtle like they have all year. Don't get why such Kyrie is such a great leader.

I think we will be lucky to win the next game, but I would love to see us rally.

Season over. They still are the same team they were in November.
Same team they were in pre season! You could see it back then.

it's possible they take the next one but it requires everyone to be hitting their shots -- especially Kyrie and Hayward. 

as much as I've seen Hayward getting bashed in different threads here (and he certainly deserves some), I put the principal blame for this 3-1 deficit squarely on Kyrie.  when your star player is having an off night, which happens from time to time, they need to make an impact in some other manner and they need to realize they're having a stinker of a night so should take better shots to get themselves going or make more of an effort to find a hot hand and feed that player.  Kyrie's done nothing like that the past 3 games.  He's been cold and not just that, he's chucked his usual barrage of heat checks and "that shot only goes if he's red hot" types of shots.    Yesterday I just wanted Kyrie pulled in favor of anyone else to run point, even Rozier (god help me).

Well I sure hope LeBron James, or Kevin Durant is walking through that door, because 3-1 and coming back from that without any help from our other stars minus Kyrie seems like an impossible feat.

I fully expect to take my lumps for thinking this but I saw the 2004 Red Sox come back from 3-0 and watched in SB LI as the Pat's came back from 28-3.

I am going to believe until it's over.
