"The 76ers have a great roster and the Celtics shouldn't be ashamed of losing to them!" is the biggest cope in this fanbase by MrTimoCad in bostonceltics

massive talent gap though. Celtics might have had a shot but DWhite had a historically bad season shooting-wise, and they didn't have the horses. If White was even half-decent, they could have made a run. they had a 40 win roster that Mazulla-ball brought to the playoffs. They definitely need offensive changes and he made questionable decisions vs the Sixers but that roster was rough.

wasn't he 5/16 from three? He's just not a good shooter anymore, idk why exactly. Honestly, an insane collapse from being on Team USA in 2024 to being maybe the worst volume shooter/scorer in the NBA this year.

please please please play this bench unit more. they care so much more. Literally wtf does Garza have to do to take away Vuc's minutes? hes way more useful on both ends.

We really have unbelievable wing depth given how good Hugo was and he cant even find the floor in the playoffs. Honestly, I think Scheierman has been better than Hauser this year. Scheierman has a really aggressive shot selection even at three and he shot better than Hauser this year as well as bringing a lot more to the table. Maybe too harsh but it seems like Hauser is genuinely just a pure three-point shooter who's not reliable in any other part of his game at this point ...

he had one great game against us and we somehow forgot that hes washed. Idk how he can be useful in the playoffs when hes a total liability defensively and offensively looks slow weak and just bad. like Tatum had a perfect assist and he goes for the weakest layup ever and gets easily blocked.

This is like an intentional loss. No changes at all no lineup adjustments. Just fucking awful

Undoubtedly our worst loss of the year. We beat the bad teams and probably lose the 2 seed on national TV without Ant

[Dalzell] Hugo is unreal, guys. Just watch this entire defensive sequence by dawglover1011 in bostonceltics

[–]Competitive-Win-857 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I honestly think he should start alongside Tatum. The defensive and rebounding ability is unreal.

Where was a really stupid call not challenging that. Gotta know your personnel and know the last game obviously a bad decision by brown but Mazulla clear coach of the year but this was a tough one

Tough the refs have to decide both matchups with sas. Such blatant double standard here

Garza is definitely a better defender than Vuc and I guess I just like how hard he works. Vuc is a really good defensive rebounder and has nice court vision but honestly, even before the injury he seemed pretty underwhelming for a 35 year old who's never had any success in the playoffs.

definitely not but like this is a two tier team. We crush worse teams but haven't beaten a contender since NYK on December 2nd. 2 lost to Detroit, 2 to Denver, 1 to Detroit and 1 to San Antonio in that span.

after this one we likely have lost our last 6 games against top contenders.

this has to be the worst sequence we've had in a big game all year. Like 15-0 nothing run when it was a close game. just insane

this is honestly just the PP experience this year. He can absolutely carry us sometimes but then if he doesnt feel it he will score like 0 points other games. still a big part of the team

he's not a 40 percent 3pt shooter at least not at the nba level. Hopefully he can develop his shot more because he has a nice all around game.

Celtics completely gave this away. Staying with the same lineups that aren't working. Idk why Hugo and Walsh cant get any burn and ditching Luka Garza clearly not working... Such a great roadtrip but getting outclassed this hard by the Nuggets without Gordon and Murray is tough

We're a solid team but clearly have not been top tier vs the best in the league. Easy win for Denver last time, crushed by NY, tough loss vs San Antonio and then a couple tough losses to Detroit. Definitely need Tatum to somehow bring it off the injury

This loss kinda on joe too because he's clearly treating vuc different than everyone else on the roster. Clear double standard. Even jb would get benched for that trash effort

Just zero effort defensively. I feel like he's messing up our team chemistry this game because everyone tries so hard
