What’s more astonishing is that our previous few years we never blew a 3-0 lead.
Celtics fans are saying if Hardy was their coach they’d have the championship in the bag. First we take their GM, then we take their best coach and the final nail in the coffin is we trade for Jaylen Brown.
Is Jalen Brown even worth it though? He’s gonna be really expensive and he hasn’t shown up so far against the Heat..
Boston just killed Philly. I think it's less of a Mazulla being terrible thing and more Miami just having Bostons number. I don't think you fire Mazulla, but you probably need to trade Brown and retool the roster around Tatum while trying to get a bit younger.
I'm not a huge fan personally. He's very good though.
I mean if you hire someone Mazulla's age with Mazulla's lack of experience I would think you believe in his long term potential. None of this is his fault IMO, it's on Brad Stevens for promoting him too early if he truly wasn't ready.
Will Hardy got to coach a young team without expectations and without much continuity from the previous season, so he really got to coach a team with a blank slate. That's probably how it should be if you're hiring someone like Hardy/Mazulla, not trying to lead a vet team to a championship. 100% on Brad Stevens

16 points down 0-3. I take Venmo, PayPal, a check or quite frankly a sincere apology and no money would suffice since my correct opinion led to a lot of unnecessary drama.
This is EXACTLY what I was referring to, not a single quarter. He's a great player but he will never carry his team to a championship, "when it matters", "just like Donovan".
