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
At least the Bucks lost
Fuck.
well
it is what it is ig
What can ya do when Jimmy is hitting shots like that đ¤ˇââď¸
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. Iâve noticed that teams rarely win both legs of these mini series, generally itâs a 1-1 split
Oh no weâre 18-5
I hate OT
Jesus was Tatum cold.
Really tough one from JT, had to happen eventually
Just wasnât our night vs a washed ass team
Road trip starts lfg
Miami definitely didn’t want to lose two in a row. We didn’t seem to give a fuck.
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
Eh whatever. You win some you lose some. Bucks lost too so we still have a solid lead on the one seed
Means nothing, except we can’t let this get in our heads, and al isn’t allowed to switch onto jimmy ever again.
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.
Celtics played like ass and still had a chance to win
Whatever. Celtics looked like shit and the refs couldnât stop blowing the whistle. Lowry is still a little bitch
Edit: Lowry is a huge bitch
I dont think theres a team I hate as much as the Miami Heat. Kings of bullshit shotmaking I canât fucking stand it
That was soooo May 2022
Very winnable even with a tough night for Jayson. Canât win them all, hopefully Luke is okay
So many reminders of the playoffs, hope this was just a one off
Finals tatum made an appearance tonight
Kudos to JB for keeping us in it, but Jimmy backed his talk. On to Brooklyn.
fuck i hate watching miami and the way they play basketball. so so ugly.
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
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. Canât always win in a blowout
Weâre 18-5. The season is fucking over
I don’t watch entire basketball games often, but I hated your commentators tonight
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 đto bitch ass Kyle Lowry and move on
Tatum was ice cold and they still almost won. Every team has off nights
So frustrating to see JT force shots when he knows his shots aren’t falling.
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
Man if JB is hot feed him wtf JT
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 donât think itâs a coincidence that this Heat team is where not having Rob shows up the most. Adebayo doesnât 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.
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
Tatum lost us this game with that 3 in OT
Tatum has to recognize when it is not his game and let Jaylen be our first option
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
Canât go 65-17 without losing 17 games. Itâs fine. Tatumâs worst game of the year and they still couldnât beat us in regulation. Beat the Nets by 20 on Sunday and make people remember why Tatum is the MVP
Celtics still havenât lost in regulation to a team other than the Bulls
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
Celtics need to recognize when itâs JBâs game. Tatum was off, instead of settling for trash 3âs feed JB. He can win games too.
That JB three going to OT was insane. Jimmy Butler was unstoppable. Gg
