The Celtics are definitely in trouble now because I don't see them winning two straight games in Miami and winning just one will be a tall task as the Heat play great with the home crowd behind them and they're going to be even more determined to get a 3-0 lead after snatching home court from Boston.

Anybody saying Celtics in 6 got to be delusional...down 0-2 you're not beating this team 4 straight games in a row. Celtics in 7 is a possibility but a very slim one because you'd have to expect the Heat to lose 4 of the next 5 games and that's unlikely.

As a Laker girl, I love to see the Celtics lose . I said it before but whenever the Celtics have a lead in the 3rd or 4th you can pretty much expect them to lose that game.

While a great player, Tatum has got to be one the most overrated media forced stars in the league.

Joe Mazzulla is a very average coach who has benefited from having a roster preassembled for him thanks to Ime and because of that you'd assume he's a great coach but in reality, he's not and it's shown throughout the playoffs.

Spo is coaching circles around him.

Jimmy really is MJ’s son,

This series is looking like a testament to throwback players vs AAU babies. Tatum and Brown are just missing that hunger you can’t learn from a childhood without open runs and street ball.

The Heat know how to muck the game up and have guys who will do anything for a win. The Celtics don’t.

Tatum and Bam played each other since they were 12. AAU is how Bam got better. Vincent and Strus both played AAU as well. It's a tired talking point.


No one talks about heart when they win.

Yeah. The Herro injury was actually a blessing in disguise

Remember a few years back when the media was making Tatum out to be the next Kobe?

 

[Lil Bape the PostGod]

The funniest part about their back and forth was that grant Williams decided to start it after he hit a wide open 3..as if he did something to jimmy there

 

[BushidoBrown]

These nikkas lost both home games to a 8th seed?!

breh aint know once u let the heat into the playoffs its up

 

[Nero Christ]

A lot of it is loose handles and turnovers

Jaylen won't ever take that next step til he can sure up his handles....they feel fail him every time late in games where the defense pressures him

It's why he tends to disappear as the game goes on

Reporter: Do you think that Grant Williams poked the bear when he spoke to Jimmy Butler?

Jaylen Brown: …..Next question

What's changed? First of all nobody is going to be "the next Kobe" he's a top 10 player of all time. Tatum had another 1st Team All-Pro season and his team is in the ECF again, pretty much every year. He's beaten Durant, Embiid, Giannis, he beat Butler last year...

This series is more about mental mistakes from the entire team, not just Tatum and the fact that Mazzulla is an awful coach on top of it.
