    not possible with deer-in-the-headlights Mazzulla as their coach. He couldn’t even get them to win 3 of the qtrs.

    Yes. Huge downgrade from Udoka. They should have either kept him or gone with someone with a bit more pedigree at least

    Lots of coaching choices out there for the Celtics: Doc Rivers, Monty Williams, Budenholzer, etc.

    Maybe, Johnny. Honestly, it's more of a mental thing. Can these guys get themselves back to a point where they BELIEVE they can win?

    I put in the other thread that I already took Celts +1.5 for gm4.

    Really?


    Odds don't matter. Books will probably make Boston series favorite.

    If that's true, how did the Celtics get to the ECF to begin with?

    Just proves regular season and playoffs are very different on a coaching level. Spo is really coaching this team every game, while the other coach is just in disbelief why his team isn’t playing like they did in regular season.

    Pure hope. I'd say they have a chance if Mazzulla wasn't the coach. But they have no chance. I can't wait til the offseason for guys to speak the truth of what happened in that locker room. Tatum isn't a leader... and Brown caters to Tatum. Brown is afraid to take over at times out of respect to Tatum. Everyone is passive bit#### in that locker room. Never seen anything like it.

    I didn't expect the line to be Boston -4.5 at some shops tonight. I know that much. DK opened game 3 at Boston -1 and BO opened up at Boston -4. I have no idea how 2 books could be way off with an opening line.

    Yes, that's what I'm saying. IF the Celtics can win game 4 (a big IF)...it's not that insurmountable:

    *They'll still be sizable Home Favs in the two home games.
    *So, it's a matter of winning two road games.

    Sizable home favorites didn't help them the first two times. But yeah, as far as odds go, yeah. Let's see:

    Game 4 +110
    Game 5 -250
    Game 6 -120
    Game 7 -300

    +615 or so.

    I see +800 on Fanduel. That may actually have some value.

    2023 Celtics ARE NOT 2004 Red Sox

    Brown and Tatum ARE NOT Schilling and Pedro.
    And the biggest difference between the two, not once did the Red Sox quit down 0-3
    Celtics folded up in a fetal position midway through the game, flopped in the sand like a flounder out of water and cried "We quit"

    This is known as "Doing the flounder"

    The 2004 Sox had heart, Pedro and Schilling, and the "Idiots" led by "Cowboy up" Kevin Millar, Youk, Manny, Papi, Johnny Damon...

    All had heart, they were too legit to quit.

    This Celtic team has no heart, and truth be told are an embarrassment,
    Professionals don't quit on a series like the Celtics did last night.

    Pathetic.

    Plus the 2004 Red Sox had suffered many times to the yanks in the past so there was a history of defeats and a level of comfort the yanks fell into in game 4 and 5 I bet.
    The Heat know they can’t do that and won’t. But JV is just trying to get internet cred. No one would bet Celtics down 3-0. Even me who thought they were going to win it all
