Celtics losing? Frauds


So pretty cool thing happened today. Went to a restaurant in downtown Fort Lauderdale and overheard 2 older gentleman talking about game 3. I asked Nuggets? "My nephew plays for the New York Knicks.". Without pause, I said Divicenzo? He got excited and we talked about his game 2 winner and his time in Villanova.

He mentioned how at one point he had 2 dollars in his checking account and told his uncle that was about to change very soon. And also mentioned how playing with Steph Curry was his dream. I got mini starstruck by association. 😂

Lol, did anyone have a jimmy-less Heat schooling the Celtics on their bingo card? Spo honestly deserves more recognition.

Martin and Jaquez shoot 67% from 3, combined. 8-11 tonight.

It's happening again.

Actually more concerned about the offense tonight.

Mazzula. He's got nothing outside of his original game plan. Been my biggest issue with him. Shouldn't ever score below 20 in a quarter. Just far too much talent for that to be the case.

Honestly the Miami Heat might be scarier to the Celtics than how Lebronto was to the
the Raptors.

With Lebronto, you kind of expect it. But for the Celtics, there's no way the Heat being as "non contending" as they seem on paper should b me giving them trouble year after year. 🤣

Be concerned about the coach...he's outclassed

Almost every coach is.

Players have to be better.

Joe called 2 timeouts during second half runs which is all that matters, so don't see what there is to critique.

Do you not like the rotations? ATOs (they've scored on 3)?

I can't explain some of the open shots, except to say the guys shooting are generally who you want to be shooting.

The only thing I was hoping for was to not get swept. Hope they can also grab one at home to give the fans something 🤞🏽

Its not close. Heat needed more 3's and got a ton of open ones. Celtics waaay below their average in 3's attempted. That's by design. Celtics offensive percetages where plenty to win the game. The defense was horrible the entire night. Guys where open constantly with no adjustment.
