Tristan Thompson for MVP!

His knee

Fire Brad

Tim Legler would be such an awesome Coach. I wish he was :)

Celtics is having chemistry issue

Why Boston won't win ring. Yr after year

Can you just coach the Boston Celtics Mr. Legler? I'm sure you're better than Brad Stevens.

Legler's pts are always on pt & good. Fact is, EVEN IF Kemba is back to LY's level, Celtics will still not advance past 2nd round in this yr's playoffs. Kemba, in playoffs, is too 1 dimensional with relatively low ball IQ, not a play maker just scorer, & hopeless on D due to his sense, bad basics & size. Ainge should hv gone all in to trade him with picks & 1 solid player for Jrue Holiday, who has size & plays both ways, and most importantly, can create for others & play make. However, Celtics woes partly has to do with the players (eg. Tatum's reading of the defense in many instances not just this game has been slow & he is still ineffective in drawing fouls & finish) & partly has to do with the roster & Stevens' tactics.

How about a switch in offensive tactics by van gundy. Melli space the floor so zion and ingram could actually do something offesively

For some weird reason, all i could hear is tony montana's voice
"Look at the pelicans!....fly pelicans!!!

I hope kemba can get thru this.and save his season. Good win pelicans vangundy is a good coach. I think you made history tonight.

At the end of the day the refs was trying to give the game to the Celtics and they still lost. Go pels lol

Stevens and Coach Bud out here looking trash now

Celtics lost that game because of Kemba. Period end of story.

Celtics are the Chargers of the NBA

Dem Duke Boys

Kemba took 12 3pts lol that is the problem. More than half his shots were 3's. He's not steph. No need to be taking that many 3's. That's Lazy Basketball in my opinion

Kamba gotta go if I’m the Celtics

If Kemba isn't contributing offensively. He's literally the worse player in the NBA

Kemba Walker shooting 1/12 from the 3 pt line doesn't help the Celtics.

Hey Celtics fans, we're doing TWO Jersey giveaways on our Twitter and Instagram! @CelticsJournal

These guys straight up blew my whole parlay on 24 point lead...n I like Boston but Walker killed them last night he's gotta penetrate pass

As a Celtics fan this is the first time I've lost faith in them in years. Even when they had struggles in years past I thought there was a chance they could iron it out, but as this roster stands I see no shot of them making a good playoff run. They need to add capable role players, their depth is just atrocious. Missing Smart and Kemba struggling they could be staying afloat if they had some quality guys off the bench, but given the burden being put on their core there's no room for any injuries or sustained slumps from any members of their core.

Boston made stupid trades. Look at the hole left by Hayward.

New Orleans Lakers with a good comeback when.

Love Kemba as a Hornets fan, but I'm glad we let him go

CELTICS SUCK THIS YEAR

1. This offense is horrible. They are at bottom of league in quality shots. They don’t get to the foul line. 2. The team plays with no energy 3. Stevens doesn’t play Williams and Pritchard consistently enough 4. Rob Williams should be playing 30+ minutes a game 5. Stevens ATO is awful 6. WHY IS STEVENS NOT FIRED!

Why would anyone move when the ball is in Tatum’s hands? He is the most selfish player on the team followed by Brown and Walker. They dribble way to much and rarely look inside. Stevens coaches like a woman and doesn’t get after these guys. I’d fire Stevens and get a coach that get them playing good team basketball.

Bostons coach is overrated and dumbest in the NBA coming from a Cs fan. Stagnant couldn't adjust and just couldn't figure out how to beat the opposing teams esp in 2nd half

People need to realize M. Smart is the muscle, heart & soul of this Boston team.
I love Brad Stevens.
I believe he is an excellent coach but sometimes we all need a fresh start elsewhere.

Tim Legler is one of those Rare journalist who is not bias.. has a solid take on a subject and seems like a Great man.
i hope we have a special show with tim legler on it breaking down games

ESPN doesnt deserve Legler

ughhhhhh...Tatum deserves some of this blame too. too much iso

Kemba is not the same

Celtics need to trade brown for better role players and a center, this team sucks because they want brown and Tatum to be the stars, didn’t work out for Kyrie, Hayward, now kemba, the mix is wrong Danny ange does not see it for some reason

From the bean Roxbury to be exact so I just wanna let my fellow Boston Celtics fans know it don’t MATTER IF WE WIN OR LOSE NEMORE the nets r TAKING THE EAST .

Lets not get too far ahead of ourselves. . The c’s problems this season have been a major impediment to their finding a rhythm or stride. its a bad stretch, one they were due for. 3/4 EastConfFinals appearances, a couple game 7’s. They’ll find their way back to form. But getting over that hump to get to the finals is going yo take focus by brad stevens. Yes lack of depth, but brad needs see a rotation through and instill some confidence in the bench.

Its not about Kemba or Kyrie. Celtics fans are the most toxic in the world...and no NBA star would ever want to play for them. The best solution is to move the franchise in a different city. These toxic fans do not deserve an NBA team.

0:47 Tatum (and Brown & Kemba) is slightly late with some of these passes. Not bad decisions because plays could be made from those 4on3s, but just to hit guys more quicker with passes.

GSW = BUCKS = CELTICS

Chris Paul watching the Celtics rubbing his hands like . . .

They need Capela or Whiteside or both. Kemba is injured or we just seen the best days in charlotte.

The brash drawbridge typically pump because fly socioeconomically guarantee around a knowledgeable pumpkin. ill-informed, blushing harbor

Great analysis, as always, by Legler.

New coach maybe..& some trades..Brad Steven's is good but it's time for a change

To be fair, he made a good point. Acknowledging the team's struggles, they simply just have to play better.

Time to blow that team up

It's hard to believe marcus smart is so important to this team's success.

Tory shining and getting buckets with the hornets for half the price of Kemba lol imagine if they had harden oh well serves them right

The Celtics record will somehow affect the great season of Jaylen Brown and Jason Tatum. Both will still make the All Star Game but will surely miss a slot in the All NBA Teams. Same with Beal.

Time for a new coach and a little better talent.

Last 3 years Celtics are blowing huge leads. We haven’t addressed the need to get defensive players. Kenna Walker is a dud.

Stagnation on offense

Lol Kemba needs to step up. He’s weak - his play I mean

Danny ainge needs to trade Kemba and get more depth or a quality big. This team isn't good enough and it frustrates me..Stevens also needs to be in the hotseat. Last year they should of been in the finals. Stevens blew 2 leads that could of been the difference in the celts making the finals.

For me....

IT'S KYRIE FAULT..

Nobody scared of Jayson Tatum lookin like Rico Swave.

It's Trump's fault!

It fall on kemba walker period.....

Boston has no identity. They need more size badly and kemba isnt the answer for them also. Not a good fit.

ay hornets you wanna swap terry for kemba again?

mediocre defense? i saw an amazing job from josh hart,Lonzo and ingram
Stevens should have changed his rotation when they started doubling Tatum in the 4th and Kept jaylen as an option
As far as Kemba ...if he doesnt find his groove ,might as well scratch the pg position and get Drummond or a 4 that can score

NBA is money hungry. Mm.....

U split ??....?sad high school talent

Tatum getting doubled every play has to get better and handling traps. Williams need more minutes. Kemba can’t create the same separation anymore and has been awful for most of the year. Jaylen brown had an off night

Lakers in 5

Yoooo! What happened to Kemba?!

Great team win for the Pels

Smart gotta go walker gotta go

I’ve been saying this for years! Celtics can’t keep leads! That’s where every game they play comes down to the wire regardless of their early leads!

The thinkable motion unsurprisingly cure because nut genotypically skip unto a brown broker. trite, likeable orange

Kemba has to go.

Walker needs to go

Danny Ainge really still has a job because he won one ring in 2008 lol.

Jason Tatum passes with words "hey I'm expecting back!!"

Pels: can i take this play outta your playbook?
Suns: sure 😋

It don’t even look like they was tryna run plays for Tatum. They just gave him the ball n The team was just sitting there watching him get double teamed. I pray Tatum forces his way out of Boston. Kid is tired of losing.

Tatum should’ve been taken those shots at the end. NOT Kemba Walker.

Suns collapse to the Nets, Suns next game Pelicans collapse to the Suns, Pelicans next game Celtics collapse to the Pelicans. Celtics next game is against Dallas.
Watch out Dallas

And you guys were saying kemba was better than kyrie you guys need to stop the cap

comeon you have to give credit on pelicans team defense thats all there is to it ....we played really good defense especially hart and zo

But but but Kemba is better than Kyrie they said????

Kemba is clearly playing poorly and that is big reason and of course Marcus Smart is hurt.

Its mostly Kemba, he is so terrible. Brick after brick, game after game. All that money he makes to launch brick after brick. Also, Steven's plays a lot of weird lineups that doesn't always make sense, he needs some of the blame too. And lastly is the bench, which is awful. Full of first round busts.

Stevens has to go, he has lost the lockerroom

U can't even bet on NBA anymore. Every night 3 or 4 teams are up by 20-30 u go to the restroom and the game is tied

The Celtics need to overhaul their roster.

Jason Tatum regressed he lost his shooting touch.

Like D'Antoni, Coach Brad is a great strategy coach but he's not much of a personality rangler the way Phil Jackson and Pat Riley was. But with a overload of talent, the Celtics need that skill to get some coordination. The team could get an assistant coach to do it.
If not, the Celtics need a "Draymond Green / Chris Paul" type player. A guy who gets the top talent to behave and fall in line in the locker room. Not always the best player, but when the best player doesn't have the personality to do it (Steph, Kawhi, Tatum, PG13, Booker, etc) he does it.

Without their fearless leader Marcus Smart this team poops their pants a lot

As a Laker fan, this is music in my ears. 🤭

BREAKING NEWS :
Brad Stevens going back to coaching at the local Y.M.C.A.

LOL

Boston needs a veteran to guide them. Smart is not a veteran.

Boooooooooston!

Defense is effort bottom line my pelicans are capable of playing d

Can Brad Stevens get some heat? What has he ever done to make him so untouchable?

Tatum isn't doing "everything he can." He waits until he's literally trapped before thinking about making a pass. He needs to pass out of double teams faster.

Tristan looked like a developing star at Cleveland with Lebron......oh well
