ITS THE OFFS BABY THE 2023 NBA PLAYOFFS

did derrick white mysteriously die at some point in the second quarter

ya rip

he is risen

he already made a play i think they should put brogdon back in

that’s a block

marcus drifting a lil which he didnt need to do

close

Lol I thought it was a travel

lol javie is a fuckin clown man apologist ass simp

that feels like a block to me

Embiid getting no respect.

Wow Horf so close

this game could not be closer

Jesus Celtics are getting away with so much

yeah, that looked like a foul

good play on

i think it was mostly that maxey weighs 120 pounds

it looked a bit foul but idk

Ok here we go folks

jesus christ

Haven’t you heard, they are a really savvy team.

Ohhhh my god

Ohhhh my god

haha!

Ok I guess that wasn’t close

when mazzula plays roulette do you think he just puts it on black every time?

hmmmm maybe the celtics coach shouldn’t be 34 years old

Smart one of my favorite players, but my god, dude is like Kennedy in Dallas ever time he is breathed on.

I didn’t have Harden steps up on my bingo card.

i honestly love mazzula for not using those timeouts

seems like it’s the sort of thing you might want to try every once in a while not necessarily do every time

i like the no timeout in the tie not as much in the down 1 situation

a bit like his threes are more than twos so let’s make every shot a three strategy

you have to use the timeout there you need to go fast youre behind

it’s always a good sign at the end of the game when the coach goes the no timeout route and the team does nothing for 10 seconds and then panic dribbles into a pass that doesn’t get to the intended target before the buzzer

also jaylen doubling off of harden in the strong side corner was bad

A 2 doesn’t beat you

A 3 just did

Let Embiid get his and at worse this games to OT

the thing about mazzulla not calling a timeout is that it wasn’t even a scramble situation. it was off a made basket, philly’s defense was already set. i have no idea what advantage you’re even discerning in that moment

you have to use the timeout there you need to go fast youre behind

mazzulla is a good coach he just hates timeouts

thats a fine age to be im not much older than that and im good at my job

they also had TWO timeouts aka even in the worst case scenario where you miss and foul and philly makes both FTs, you could still advance the ball *again*

truly gets worse the more you think about it. every single decision was wrong, in a way i guess you have to tip your hat

the real error is by the nba in not scheduling todays games back to back

Philly had no timeouts right? So if you make it with 4 seconds left, good luck to them

mazzulla is a good coach he just hates timeouts

i'm sure he's a good coach or will be a good coach but that was a pretty abominable performance even before the timeout stuff. he let harden repeatedly work, at best, boston's fourth best perimeter defender the entire game. his thing kinda seems like, i just let my guys run around and shoot threes and stuff and let's see where the chips fall. idk i might try a different mindset in the playoffs. celtics are 6-6 playing the hawks and a team they killed in the regular season whose best player has a fucked up knee

i mean they almost beat them in five idk id rather have him than like doc or bud or whoever

tony brothers is a fucking clown

wow kevin dont say something youll regret later

I’m happy again now
