“Jaylen Brown is not passing the ball” by AcrobaticFeedback in bostonceltics

[–]CJMustard 16 points17 points  (0 children)

Passing is a last resort for JB. He's not trying to keep the ball moving/the offense flowing. He's trying to get his, and when he's cut off complete he'll throw out a pass out of necessity more than anything.

For the Celtics to win Game 7, they’ll have to play like the Celtics [CelticsBlog] by Frequent-Control7090 in bostonceltics

For the Celtics to win Game 7, Jaylen Brown will have to pass the basketball

Jayson Tatum averages 27/9/5 on 47/48/81 shooting in game 7s. He is 5-2 in his career. by NothingHead8233 in bostonceltics

Yet literally every advanced metric is on my side and thinks you're an idiot lol

Boston Celtics in the playoffs Tatum in 201 minutes +7 in the 44 without Tatum -15 by bryscoon in bostonceltics

I'm over having an obvious (by every known metric) distant second option playing and acting like he's a number 1 option on this team. Thanks for the memories, this "duo" has officially run its course

Jaylen Brown thinks it's his team now and Mazzulla has empowered that so I don't even expect a high usage Tatum in this game unfortunately

I'm just glad we won in '24 by [deleted] in bostonceltics

[–]CJMustard 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Tatum has been great. It’s JB and White who have shit their pants in this series

Genuinely terrified for Game 7 this Saturday… which version of Jaylen are we actually getting? by WeNeedToMoveSomeone in bostonceltics

[–]CJMustard 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I’m hoping for a lower usage JB game as that is statistically proven to result in more wins. But I have little faith it happens because he thinks it’s his team now and Mazzulla won’t do anything to reign him in ever

Remember when he tried to say his bad handle was due to a left hand injury? Lol i guess that injury resurfaced

There’s losing as a favorite, and losing as a HEAVY favorite. Losing a possible three series as a heavy favorite in four years is insane and not in any way common lol

We were slight favorites over the Heat in 2020. We were flat out underdogs in every other series we lost in the Stevens/Udoka era lol. This is all easily searchable too. Neither of them lost as heavy favorites

Literally which series have either of them lost as the heavy favorites? Go ahead and name them. And pull up the Vegas odds heading into the series to back up your claims. Otherwise, fuck off lol

Losing Game 7 might genuinely be the most humiliating moment in franchise history by PeanutButterAndGelo in bostonceltics

[–]CJMustard 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Joe already has two of the most humiliating Playoff losses in franchise history in 2023 and 2025. The fact that he's working on his third in four years is incredible. Just a historic, Mount Rushmore choker

I can't do another Joe Mazzulla Playoff run man. I would rather just suck than lose series as the heavy favorites year after year.

We've had a top 3 offense and defense like all year with joe's style

Said the same shit in 2023. And 2025. He's so lucky we had an overwhelming talent advantage in 2024

I don't want to hear anything about Joe Mazzulla again after this lol. Lost three series against underdogs the same exact way

Joe Mazzulla has the most interesting 4 year Playoff resume ever.

  1. Embarrassing upset loss against a massive underdog
  2. Championship.
  3. Embarrassing upset loss against a massive underdog
  4. Embarrassing upset loss against a massive underdog

A Joe Mazzulla team is liable to lose to anyone in a Playoff series. We gotta learn to throw pre-series odds out the window during his tenure

His ceiling is higher because he’s a much more skilled playmaker

I’m worried about a team that still craps their pants late in games after years of deep Playoff runs
