  1. crackdup

    It’s so goddamn frustrating playing the Heat, they turn up no matter what, and watching Bam play is like ripping your hair out.. JT was quite bad but one loss is nbd, we move on to the Nets

  2. BigWildTurkey

    What can ya do when Jimmy is hitting shots like that 🤷‍♂️

  3. I_Hate_Klutch_Sports

    Not really sure what to make of this one. Feels like Miami figured something out against our historic offense. We also cannot guard Bam PnR handoffs. But also the refs suck dick and Tatum had an anomaly of a night. Plus Miami made some bullshit in general.

    It is what it is. I’ve noticed that teams rarely win both legs of these mini series, generally it’s a 1-1 split

  4. TheTurtleOne

    Really tough one from JT, had to happen eventually

  5. JaylenCrown

    Just wasn’t our night vs a washed ass team

  6. Miami definitely didn’t want to lose two in a row. We didn’t seem to give a fuck.

  7. Brad-Stevens

    Very well deserved loss

    Complete no show from Tatum

    Sloppy majority of night

    0-3 in OT

    Lets go on another run in this business trip

  8. Lightingfast31

    Eh whatever. You win some you lose some. Bucks lost too so we still have a solid lead on the one seed

  9. Shinnaminbuns

    Means nothing, except we can’t let this get in our heads, and al isn’t allowed to switch onto jimmy ever again.

  10. ThanosIsDoomfist

    I love that scal basically confirmed my belief that the Heat doesnt play anyone as hard as us lmao. Bums.

    We wreck em with Robert. Cant win em all, onto the next.

  11. Aurock75

    Celtics played like ass and still had a chance to win

  12. Whatever. Celtics looked like shit and the refs couldn’t stop blowing the whistle. Lowry is still a little bitch

    Edit: Lowry is a huge bitch

  13. Kbrichmo

    I dont think theres a team I hate as much as the Miami Heat. Kings of bullshit shotmaking I can’t fucking stand it

  14. Very winnable even with a tough night for Jayson. Can’t win them all, hopefully Luke is okay

  15. shrekbae69

    So many reminders of the playoffs, hope this was just a one off

  16. ChallengeAfter

    Finals tatum made an appearance tonight

  17. Twiggly_

    Kudos to JB for keeping us in it, but Jimmy backed his talk. On to Brooklyn.

  18. Kip_Hackman

    fuck i hate watching miami and the way they play basketball. so so ugly.

  19. greatcharacter20

    don’t see any reason to be concerned by that tbh…it took by far the worst game of the season by tatum, poor shooting, and ridiculous turnover numbers to even take us to overtime. we beat them 7 out of 10 games id say

  20. Jpgamerguy90

    I think early foul trouble messed with JT a bit he looked lost all night long. Sucks to lose but honestly it might be better to get punched in the mouth every once in awhile. Can’t always win in a blowout

  21. Videogamesandshiz

    We’re 18-5. The season is fucking over

  22. astray71

    I don’t watch entire basketball games often, but I hated your commentators tonight

  23. vib3v3nd3tta

    They acted like they were playing for their season. We played like it was a pre-game to a winter Friday night out. Tip your cap to Jimmy Buckets, throw up a 🖕to bitch ass Kyle Lowry and move on

  24. BocaRoyal3

    Tatum was ice cold and they still almost won. Every team has off nights

  25. whatnowazzy

    So frustrating to see JT force shots when he knows his shots aren’t falling.

  26. OkSureWTVuSay

    Why do we ALWAYS go away from Brown when he’s hot?… fuckin annoyed. Tatum with a cheeks game, and that last 3 was all types of Stupid

  27. JCosta04

    Most teams that turn it over 25 times and get a 5-18 night from their best player get blown out. Turn the page, onto the road trip. I don’t think it’s a coincidence that this Heat team is where not having Rob shows up the most. Adebayo doesn’t eat like that when Williams is on the floor and missing the lob threat lets them ugly things up on defense. 18-5 is a good place to be.

  28. jaylengtjordan

    Jaylen tried his best, this man always has my biggest respect on the court coz he never gave up and tried the hardest every time when it mattered

  29. boykalbo777

    Tatum lost us this game with that 3 in OT

  30. Tatum has to recognize when it is not his game and let Jaylen be our first option

  31. there isn’t a more boring team to watch than the Miami Heat they slog you down to keep it close and then jimmy goes for the throat… annoying

  32. igonnawrecku_VGC

    Can’t go 65-17 without losing 17 games. It’s fine. Tatum’s worst game of the year and they still couldn’t beat us in regulation. Beat the Nets by 20 on Sunday and make people remember why Tatum is the MVP

  33. Celtics still haven’t lost in regulation to a team other than the Bulls

  34. HypoTomasis

    That was the Old Tatum having a bad game. He always finds a way to affect the game last 11 months when he’s having a bad game. With playmaking and other stuff

    Tonight he didn’t. He settled for bad shots and slowed down our pace which was out of rythm in the first place.

    But hey. One bad game. I can definitely live with that

  35. Awkward_Street1708

    Celtics need to recognize when it’s JB’s game. Tatum was off, instead of settling for trash 3’s feed JB. He can win games too.

  36. ericdeben

    That JB three going to OT was insane. Jimmy Butler was unstoppable. Gg
