didn't realize Brad Stevens game plans for Games 3 and 4 we're gonna be for his guys to have zero movement on offense and just jack up contested shot after contested shot.


This is why Brad Stevens is overrated. He's a great coach, but the NBA is and always will be a player's league. You're as good as your players play.

Stevens looks like a bum for the last 6 quarters, but we know that's not true. His hype just got out of hand.

Stating the obvious but this is a game the Celtics could really use Kyrie and Gordon on the floor, outside of their talents just their confidence on offense in this environment would’ve been huge. Celtics look like scared school kids right now.

Not a lot of coaches can sustain a 63% first half by their opponent

you could start by not having a terrible offensive game plan.

There's a lot of truth to this, but if you swapped him and Lue, the Cavs would probably be going for a sweep right now.

That crew is terrible, but Pierce being there during a Celtics game makes them completely unwatchable

Neither Side of the ball has been great. I don’t know if I lay the blame at the feet of Brad for game 3 and the first half of 4

It's amazing how much worse the studio crew is on ESPN than on TNT.

This is unwatchable.

They're shooting 37% themselves. I'm not really knocking Stevens, I'm just commenting on how out of control his hype had gotten.

46% of people were talking about taking Stevens over Giannis if they could have either for the next five years. , that's insane.
