This team is done. Miami was clearly the better team

went to jacking up 3s when only down by a few points. amazingly stupid

Heat completely dominated us the last 8 mins of the game.....tough loss to end a good season. We need some veteran leadership off the bench

Yup made no sense either. They panicked after being down by 8.

The celtics really should have won this series. Poor coaching and decisions on offense cost us. Jacking up 3s, missing easy layups, moronic turnovers, etc...

Yeah we honestly should have won this series but nevertheless it was a valiant effort and I'm already looking to next season

Man..one of the most frustrating things with this team is just the lack of depth/front office moves.

Over the last four years they have drafted 15 guys.

Nader, Bentil, Jackson, Zizic, Yabusele, BROWN, bird, Allen, Ojeley, TATUM, Williams, waters, Edwards, Williams, Langford

Consolidate this stuff, why hold on to ALL these draft picks instead of making moves to upgrade your bench players etc. Its so frustrating.

Then this year we have another several picks, are we gonna draft 3 more mid-late first rd guys and never see them either because we have 10 others waiting to play still?

We have only hit on Tatum and Brown who were top picks. (brown not projected that high). The rest, BLAH. Maybe Williams x2 can provide something as well as langford..but cmon.

[bosox1899]

My strife with Stevens is he never made adjustments when they struggled on offense. Bring in Kanter, rob Williams, langford, etc... but nope he stuck with the players who were throwing up bricks the whole time.

Plus he's got to be the worst at choosing which plays should be challenged and which shouldn't

We were the more talented team up top but roster not filled out for a championship team.

Brad got out-coached but he’s not a bad coach or to blame. I think it says more of how great a coach Spo is.

We need a better starting big, could try to get Turner from Indy or sign a vet like Tristan/Ibaka

Need some veterans leadership off the bench to help these young guys. Literally had 7 rookies on the roster and only 3 players with more than 5 years nba experience.

This roster isn’t built to win now but we’ve been late in the playoffs every year! Scary to thing if the core sticks together and some pieces are added. DA got some work this off-season for sure....3 more firsts I definitely don’t want to see another rookie parade this season. All in all great year for the team and big leaps for Brown Tatum and even Smart on offense.

time to go in on Giannis.

[elements1985]

time to go in on Giannis.

Absolutely, there's really no other move. Kemba contract an albatross. Hayward 95% opting back in. Tatum will be extended. Brown's salary kicks up to $22M next season. Thin bench.

Something like Brown + Smart + Picks + Williams / S&T Theis

[CELTICS4LYFE]

Hmmmm long shot but doc come back as a assistant?? Lol

[CELTICS4LYFE]

Couple ugly preseason games for sure. I will say we did play more like preseason where I thought the 6ers and especially Nets played it closer to a real game. KD was out there ******** on the rookies lol

[Tg11]

Should have had our vets playing in this game or at the very least our vets if they were playing...should have been playing better but we have the Nets again we will see them again on Christmas Day primetime
