- Eddie House and Brian Scalabrine join Tom Giles to offer instant reaction and analysis following the Boston Celtics' 118-94 loss to the Cleveland Cavaliers in Game 2 of the Eastern Conference Semifinals. Boston shot just 22.9% from three and were outscored on points in the paint 60-44.
That is so embarrassing Celtics keep losing game 2 getting blownout at home and struggling on defense and struggling on shooting 3’s so fucking painful and ugly
Facts nun to worry about Tatum needs to be better
Can we not go up 2-0 in a series when the first 2 games are at home!!! Our defense was awful, like in game 2 against Miami!! Remember the mystique of the old Boston Garden?!! U can't expect teams to just fold all the time!
nothing surprises me with this anymore
Typical. Reverting back to old ways
Just one game, hoping they’ll bounce back like last series
@@patsfan4929Nope. This team doesn't have it. 3 different coaches and the same results
Just 1 game relax we will win this series ecf here we come
Even if the Celtics can come out from the East, there’s no way they can beat either the Nuggets or the Wolves in a seven game series. They don’t play hard and not mentally tough.
They may win this series but no way a championship. They have no fight in them. Minnesota winning it all. They continue to play down to lesser teams and consistently play with inconsistent effort. I don't understand it. Smh
Effort was pathetic, red flags are still there
Ridiculous in the playoffs!!!! How can they win a champioship with this kind of inconsistency and compalcency?
That's their problem this team is frustrating to watch.
I'm so disgusted by the lack of effort. Absolutely disgusted.
Game 3 is amust win or else were going to Cancun early
The Celtics only have one way to play, shoot and make more 3's. When they miss keep shooting 3's. it will get you the best record in the league and beat 95% of the teams. However that 5% team it will not work. That is why I strongly believe this team is destined to lose in the ECF or Finals. Because they fail to adjust, this is on the Head coach for never telling the team to stop taking 3s and put pressure in the paint
Agreed..joe is the most pathetic and dumbest coach for letting his players to keep shooting 3 even if they r not falling..instead of going inside the paint. Boston will never advances in the finals if this the way they will always play..no killer mentality and no urgency..no hard-nose defense..they have all the tools to win a chip but the coach keeping them out bcoz of his terrible coaching
Mazzulla need to make better adjustments, 3's not falling then run some plays to get points. The Celtics seems like they are in auto pilot, they look great in the first 5 minutes of the game, but they didn't match cavs energy.
Cleveland won their season after game 7 vs. Orlando. Cleveland has no pressure to win this series. No worries. Each game is a bonus for their team. Even if Mitchell gets traded after the season the team will get more than what they gave up to get him. Boston has all the pressure, Cleveland has none. No matter how talented Boston is, they are not perfect. Boston is in BIG trouble going to Cleveland this weekend (they may lose both games in Cleveland). Cleveland can lose every game from here out ... with no worries. Thats why Cleveland has a great chance to upset Boston and move on. They have the talent to do so, and a super star to lead them there. Cleveland is 4-3 (now 5-3) vs Boston over the past 2 years. Boston doesn't scare them very much. They chose to go the Orlando then Boston playoff bracket. Cleveland can beat Boston and maybe should be favored to win this series now that they beat Boston on Boston's home court? The team Cleveland fears is the Knicks, not Boston.
As a Cavs fan everything about what you said is 💯. Great insight. Cavs aren’t intimidated by Boston. They match up well with them the past 2 years. The team the Cavs dont wanna see are the Knicks. That being said, i think the Celtics are still the better team and can easily win this in 5 or 6 if they start making 3s but Cavs are playing with house money now. If they get Jarrett Allen and Dean Wade back, and Porzingis remains out then that can pose a big issue with Boston.
Spida > ISO pretty boy
Celts like to take home playoff games off. The main reason this era of the Celts will never win a chip.
Jesus, all these comments are brutal man. Godspeed pro athletes lol
The Celtics will bounce back. We have one of the worst fan base. We win 1 game everyone is like “Banner 18” we lose 1 and it’s “this is the worst team” just relax and let the series play out. We played horrible and everyone knows this team definitely plays a lot better.
100% agree
I’ve been screaming this. The Celtics has the worst fan base. Like spoiled rotten children. A complete meltdown after any loss. No support or belief for our team
@@takiaharris6004 exactly. everyone gets so negative after one game, half of our fan base is so spoiled
No excuses front runners Selltics selling as usual 😂
Its a vegas thing
This is another example of us not playing our game but allowing the other team to dictate the pace and type of game
They keep attacking the paint plain and simple and Donovan and Garlang is not scoring in the first half and yet the score is tied
celtics are pitful. extremely soft with no dawg in em. they need a coach badly.
3 different coaches, same results. It's the players. They don't care
I’d love to see them swap Jayson Tatum for Larry Bird in his prime. Agree, they are soft, pitiful no leader.
This isnt a championship team
Definitely is but they don’t have a championship mentality/grit
this is all psychological. they wasted everyone's time
I love this team but am so frustrated by the mindset. Teams don't win championships with these inconsistent showings. It's championship or bust, the window is too small to f around.
It's very, very difficult to root for a team that goes into a corner to suck their collective thumb when things don't go perfectly. Does the term "front running punks" mean anything to anyone?
This has been a Tatum factor since he’s been here that’s why nothing has changed. A team reflects the best player
Here we go!!!! Lost a game & thats it its over🤦 Everyone loses faith faster than the flash smashin wonder woman
Thats why i dont want Tatum to be top scorer we always lose
That's what I'm saying..what u rather prefer,..Tatum score 50 but team losses or Tatum score 20 or below but team win?..but I think they of this game coz of their mindset..they play complacent again and lousy basketball too many 3s taken in this game even they rare not dropping..they keep shooting instead of play bully ball..how mazzulla can't see the mismatches..why he can't make a play whoever garland is guarding,why joe not let the player to go down low against garland,instead they play and keep shooting 3s..even when mobley sitting on the bench mazzulla not able to capitalize it why they not driving to the basket when no one in Cavs has no rim protector..mazzulla is such a dumbest coach.boston not going to the finals if they keep playing lousy basketball no urgency,.no high level of game ever..Boston not winning a chip under joe head coaching he is terrible.he let white stay on the game even he is not doing good,but messing around.
Tatum top scorer tonight but his FG super low DAMN
He's the best player on the team wdym?
He's supposed to score
He was top scorer for this reason: Brown and White combined for 1-14 from 3 (0-6 JBrown 1-8 DWhite), but somehow you guys manage to blame this too on Tatum 😤
Cleveland Cavalier fan here. I still have no delusion that Cleveland can win this series, but it was great to see them win big in Boston. I fully expect Boston to bring their A game on Saturday night and when they bring their A game, they are unbeatable.
Maybe we need a captain now. JT as star player, JB as captain. We need that Payton Pritchard dog mentality
Celtics are the Ravens of the NBA. The Vegas darling for some reason
3rd and 4th quarter we just didn't do what needed to be done!! Let's go to Cleveland and get busy!! 🏀🏀
Substitutions were horrible
Can’t blame joe for this one
They have no heart. They are soft!!!. They let the CAVS to wake up. Be careful....the cavs have not lost at home. This might be 3-1. Sorry soft team.
How does the team not have a sense of urgency in the playoffs??
Tatum a lot difficult shots again DAMN
Total Tatum game.
Well derrick white and holliday just missing so many shots thats the bptton line tatum and brown did their job hausser was absent too
Celtics and Bruins always seem to be just disappointing
Brown and Tatum too good to settle for fade-aways. Overall a piss poor effort!
They’ve been going back to HEAVY ISO Ball and not playing defense.
The Head Coach has to do Better in these games after a blowout win and losing at home from the start the team was not Motivated That’s Coaching!!!
Deja vu all over again from the Heat series lol
Cavs aint no heat 😂...
@@arikanamiCavs better then the heat
It's not the heat made a crazy amount of threes the Cavs kicked the Celtics ass
Lol see you Saturday 😘
Cavs clogged the paint and defended the 3 and knocked Celtics out of their rhythm. Add the fact the Celtics didn’t bring their A game on the defensive end. Celtics got rolled. See ya all in Cleveland.
Larry O’Brien who?
These guys are huffing and puffing but not really calling out the elephant in the room. This has been happening for several years now and the killer instinct mentality just isn't there no matter who is put around Tatum and Brown.
Trade Tatum he’s a #2 or #3 on a championship team
He’s not inspiring. All the number 1s inspire their teammates, the fans etc but the only one inspiring on the Cs is D White.
We are balling "rich game basketball" not a good thing
You only have so many of those left.
WAKE UP!!!
What is this happend again??? 😂😂😂
I DONT see this Celtic team winning a championship
Please, just put us out of our misery already Celtics....stop pretending and playing with the Fans emotions.
Joe must go.....
Stinkbomb led by jt the brick
how weak is the East? the cavs just embarrassed boston on the parkay...fire everybody
He only thing that could explain this. It's probably not that, but tjey just want to finish all series at home. I wish I could believe in this conspiracy theory...
If they finishing at home it will be game 7. Cavs won't lose three in a row.
Not worried about the Cs but it sucks to support a weak ass uninspiring team
People need to stop acting like tatum is a number 1 option. Hes not
Lmaooo Celtics literally don’t learn
Boston fans are dumbfounded.
Kornet lost this game for us
So they miss 17 of 18 3s in a row and it bother the team or the coach . So sick of this woke soft Celtics team
Celtics = Soft
Tatum not a superstar
Celtics in 4 🧹🧹🧹...broom on big sale in boston i heard...😂
Iso bullshit
Overpaid millionaires
