lmao predictable blame the coach garbage after every loss, never gets acknowledged when all the players insistently give Mazzulla credit after wins though. Everybody’s favorite player Derrick White leads the charge there too
Y’all really did expect them to run the table going into the finals, wild
This is a players league, the heat have the best coach and got their dicks cut off and served to them. If the team wins it’s on the players and if they lose it’s on the players.
Celtics in 6
It's sleepwalking into moving traffic thinking the Mazzulla stuff is just blame the coach garbage. They constantly lose games both offensively and defensively the same way, that's on the coach. The defense is more concerning of the two. With the kind of defensive talent on this roster, it should be able to bail out the offense on nights they go cold but it doesn't and it's because of how badly they defend the three point line.
Since Mazzulla became coach, the Celtics opponents are shooting 46% from three in the 11 playoff losses they have had. This is what he wants, they were one of the worst teams in the league this season for opponent three point attempts. You get to the playoffs and suddenly teams start making it a point of emphasis to attack that and they have the guys who can shoot to punish it. The Cavs aren't even that great of a three point shooting team but they have guys who can shoot.
I agree with you that they'll win this series but a potential playoff series with the Knicks should scare everyone. That's one where the coaching is going to matter a lot more.
