Mazzulla is starting to drive me nuts
I think this Celtics team is incredibly strong & the closest thing to a superteam like the KD warriors back in the day that we've seen.
But im always gonna root for a Jimmy Buttler Heat team.
One is a good coach willing to make adjustments and take risk and when to call timeouts and the other coach just want to stick to one game plan and live off jump shots when Celtics bigger at every position
I actually still don't think Miami could come out of the series tbh. They literally had a perfect night and hit like 70% from 3. But if the Heat actually pull it off, everything could happen in the east and Tatum wouldn't lose the fraud allegations until he wins a chip.
Spo is special. It's also amazing how ESPN just never seems to learn.. how many years? this is literally the 4th year we are facing Boston in the past 5 years since having Bam/Jimmy.Herro. 3 of them were in the ECF. This is the 1st round; but did anyone expect anything different? At this point you have to prove to me its not going to be a 6 or 7 game tough fought series.. that could go EITHER way
Somebody get Mazulla some glasses please. Bro looks around bewildered when a reporter asks a question 😂. Can’t win a chip if your coach looks like that.
It's a travesty coach spo can't get better players man…… GIVE THAT MAN A REAL STAR
Klay should come to Miami
Now i want everybody to really think about this, the job that spo has done. Not only with the big 3, but with what he has done since. Name another coach that has done what he has done, with the amount of talent that he has had on his roster. It's not even close, sop just might be one of the greatest of all time 🤷
No coach does more with less year after year after year. He gets every ounce of talent out of his players. Just amazing to keep seeing him preparing and empowering his players.
Spo is the greatest coach of all time behind Pop. Dude is so underrated and that’s saying a lot.
Spo is a true humble gentleman and leader. Wish he was running for president…
Coach spo and pat know how to work with what they got. Winning even 1 against the best reg season team should feel pretty good heading back to Miami.
Two great coaches!
Coach SPO AWESOMELY AWESOME 👏🏿💯
Watching Coach Spo coach turns me on so much. That man is passionate about his job!
Life is much easier when you listened to someone who have your best interest at heart. This is why Eric is the best coach in this series.
Mazzulla, sorry to say but you DO NOT KNOW the meaning of the word ADJUSTMENT. You do not adjust to anything, you never have. You dont call time outs when your team is getting spanked. I dont know if it is an ego/pride problem but, you are not a good coach. Out of those 20+ 3's, I would say that more than 15 of them were practice shots. If the Heat had already 14+ 3's by half time, was it too much for you to tell your team "SHUT THE 3'S DOWN"??
Spo’s a psycho. Joey Mozzarella ain’t him.
Erik Spolestra with the current squad of Boston Celtics along with the squad of last 4/5 years would've won multiple NBA championships. As talented as Celtics are with Tatum and Brown, their winning record when it matters the most is quite shocking and very disappointing.
Heat definitely have the better coach ! The worst thing Boston has done was get rid of Udoka!
Questions for Spolestra: Explain your greatness
Questions for Mazzulla: Explain yourself
Only coach where the fans would say “get this coach a proper team!!!”
Celtics are absolute pretenders, regardless of record, until they win a chip. They need to prove they can win the big series.
plus minus is always hard to interpret, but plus minus in this game for the Celtics is outright BIZARRE.
Among starters, Tatum was +6 and Holiday was +10…. But somehow Porzingis was -32!! And White and Brown were -23,-22. And their bench was all +8, +8, -5.
They absolutely wrecked Porzingis lineups.
I don’t think I’ve ever rooted for a teams downfall so much, thanks for beating the literal worst franchise in nba history
They hit 23 3s on 63 percent shooting. It’s the heat… this is luck and that luck will run out. Also porzingus shot 1/9 with 9 points. He sucked
joe mazzulla is such a moron he just do not care they did not close out well
A video coordinator first before having a head coaching job in modern NBA prepared Spo to win no matter what roster he has. Last year, he had unknown 3 starters from G League or undrafted and reach the Finals. LOL
❤
Spo can coach Mazzulla and the Celtics team
eliminate the fact of not having Butler, considering how stacked the first 6-7 players of Boston are, Wow! What a coaching, adjustments masterpiece executed by the Miami Heat Coach
This series will show the importance of coaching in the nba playoffs.The Celtics regular season does not guarantee a title.Just look at the Boston Bruins last year.
Joe mazula doesnt know how to coach
This series will be up to the coaching, and this Spo. Is a brain. I’m a Boston fan but imagine if he was Boston coach 🔥🔥🔥, but hey he’s one of the best, now Joe is a moron, such a great team and he’s messing up there strategy…
Celtics are too good for this shenanigans chin up and play bruh…
