posty 2,608 Posted May 16, 2023 Just can't win when it counts... Rivers, who delivered his 16th straight winning season as a head coach, lost for the 10th time in a Game 7, including five in a row. The defeat to the Celtics also marked the ninth straight time that Rivers lost with a chance to reach the conference finals. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

He is a much better coach than Mazula. Who won? Coaching in the NBA means less than any other sport. Except maybe baseball. Players league. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Thornton Melon 603 Posted May 30, 2023 Celts were completely gutless last night. What a pathetic showing. After Game 6, everyone was treating Derrick White as if he was Dave Roberts or Big Papi. It turns out he was just Carlton Fisk. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Really looking forward to Mazula being fired and Smart being hired as player/coach They were not gutless at all. The Celtics are simple. hit their 3s and they win.

Well, they were gutless in the sense that the pressure got to them and they choked on their 3s. I agree on Mazzula. He's out of his league. The WNBA is more his speed.

Fumbleweed 516 Posted June 13, 2023 Bucks-Nuggets would have been compelling with Jokic going up against Giannis. Would not be surprised if that ends up being next year's Finals. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
