While Kendrick Perkins is in his Celtic feelings today, he did say before the postseason started that the Celtics didn't wanna see the Heat. And look at the outcome thus far.

The coach took the blame as the leader. But there’s No way he should have to motivate players that are in the playoffs. Boston lost this game as a whole in the first 5 minutes of the game. They all should be embarrassed for the effort they displayed.

Perk saying Robert Williams not starting is a travesty is wild to me. Watch any single second of these games and you see jimmy abusing Robert every time he’s guarding JB. He’s being targeted by jimmy in the mid range, and perk has to see that

As a Lakers fan, it helps ease the pain that BOS is also down 0-3. But, I don't think its a coincidence 2 rookie HCs are getting blatantly outcoached by 2 veteran HCs.

That's why I got a lot of respect for Jimmy Butler because he's one of the very few players in the league that doesn't want to be on a super team to win a championship

Who knew the Knicks would put up a bigger fight than the Bucks and Celtics did? 🤣 Miami broke Milwaukee. They broke Boston. They broke every AI projection algorithm.

Boston getting swept is more embarrassing than the Bucks losing in the first round. At least for the Bucks you can make an argument that their best player was out for 3 games. Celtics have 0 excuses, they have the most talented team, they're more complete compared to Miami, Brown and Tatum were considered better than Butler before the playoffs started and they're getting beaten down like this

Boston deserves every ounce of ridicule and shame for yet another failure. Miami is taking it to them and proving that a #8 seed can be lethal. Miami is outclassing them in every aspect. Congratulations to Spoelstra for motivating this team to not settle for anything less than a trip to the Finals.

While some blame is on coach and I respect him for taking 100% blame, Brown and Tatum (2 allstars) combing for 26 pts is not due to coaching. Gabe Vincent who was undrafted had 29 pts.

In Heat-Bucks series, it was all about 8 seed beating the 1 seed. 8 seed. 8 seed. It was all about undrafted players beating the 1 seed. It was all about shock. Giannis got injured, missed 3 games, played injured and NOBODY mentioned Giannis being hurt. NOBODY gave Giannis grace. after game 4, Giannis missed post game interview and went to straight to get treatment on his back. Did anybody mention that? They blamed everything on Giannis. What's the excuse for the Celtics? Getting walked down by Jimmy and company 🤣🤣. I am loving this.

Yessss preach it SAS preach it!!! I’m so sick of this org. They’ve shut our championship window, they got rid of the coach and they’ve made JB feel unwanted! I hope we struggle the next decade!!!

The series Stephen A is talking about is the 2001 Western conference finals Lakers vs Spurs it was hyped as the greatest series of all time and the Lakers swept them easily.

It's funny, everyone i watched the game with last night agreed there needed to be a mercy rule. At least a "Throw in the White Towel" option. 😂😂😂

As a Celtics fan, I’m glad Stephen A brought up the Ime Udoka situation. I’m glad that we’re having this conversation about the Ownership.

I don't think I would necessarily blame the Celtics as much as I would praise the Miami Heat and Erik Spoelstra. They are playing perfect basketball out there and we've seen this consistently from them since last season. It's a thing of beauty.

As a player it’s your responsibility to be ready mentally and to show up. The coach definitely bears some responsibility for the poor play but why is it his fault Tatum, first team all nba, and Brown, second team all nba, are performing poorly. They’re turning the ball over and playing too much iso ball compared to the Heat who are moving the ball around, spreading the defense thin and making a barrage of 3pters. Kobe definitely not texting Tatum back

just because someone is un-drafted does not mean they are inferior. a lot of b.s. goes into who goes to what schools..and people can develop on their own schedule. when players go up against one another - who cares what their resumes say..it's who outduels who

Celtics never should’ve gotten rid of Udoka. Ever since they fired him the Celtics season this year was solely based on if they could make it back to the Finals. They won’t. Same players, different results. That’s coaching.
