All credit to the Knicks. Two great comebacks.

I'm disappointed the Celtics let two 20-point 2nd half leads vanish.

What are they now...about 25-100 from downtown? Live by the three & die by the three.

I have no idea what to expect out of them the rest of this series.

Mazzulla will be the fall guy IMO....if they end up losing this series.
The new ownership is getting ready to have to deal with the aprons and cap and all that. They aren’t going to pay Haif a billion in luxury tax. Things getting ready to change in Boston.

Oh, I also agree they will break up the core.....but Mazzulla will be the first casualty of losing to the Knicks.

IMO.

Tatum is being held back by all the threes they are putting up in my opinion.

This is probably the Celtics last real run at a title for a while.

No doubt. Brown could be gone. Holiday's contract I think is 100 million+. Bye-bye. And pretty sure My favorite current Celtic D. White will be gone too.

Tatum should demand a trade...to the Cavs. :heh:

It's been frustrating watching the Celtics brick it up from downtown the first two games.

Something's gotta change. Now I'm no coach but maybe stop chucking up so many damn 3's would be a good start.

Yeah the Celtics may have finally pushed the new Curry-driven world of massive 3 pt attempts a little too far

Totally agree. During game 2 not sure how many times I said- not another damn three.

If the Celtics go brick-a-rific from downtown for a third game it'll be tough to watch.

At least one of them

Holiday is the ideal one to move but has a longer deal

I get selling high on zinger if possible

Fun as hell if the spurs were the one to get him

Didn't the Spurs recently trade for DeAron (spelling) Fox?

I can think of one team I don't want any future former Celtics to play for. The purple 'n gold.

Detroit will be happy to take on Mr Brown.

He'd be a good fit in the Motor City with Cade.

Gotta say I'm disappointed about the COY.

Everyone knew the Cavs have talent.

But nobody expected the record turnaround Bickerstaff had.

They just go so far with it, they are first in the league with 48.2 attempts a game, a huge jump of almost 6 more per game over the 2nd place team (no surprise, Golden State)

They are also last in 2 point attempts, 5 below the next to last team
