I'm choosing to live in a world where this team finds a way to win the next game. It's the only thing that matters at present. Win the next game.
This is where I’m at. Yeah they’re going to lose this series but have a little pride and don’t get swept. Maybe even win the next two and make it interesting at least.Just don't embarrass the uniform. Play with pride.
Scott will put in the work, but the C's have to at least be competitive. If they fold up shop, the nudge won't matter.Kind of hilarious that it is, indeed, Scott Foster's game tonight. The NBA never disappoints.
What's coming out today?Given what's coming out today, if they lose by less than 20 I will be pleasantly surprised.
Guessing it was this from Woj:What's coming out today?

Woj bombWhat have I missed?
And it doesn't matter if you (in a generic sense) actually believe this. You keep saying it and focusing on it and thinking it until maybe it becomes possible. Maybe? You never know...Remember that the 2004 Red Sox weren’t fully the 2004 Red Sox until after the ALCS. 3 games in they were a great regular season team that was getting taken to town by their more experienced rivals who were professionals and winners. The team was also, by accounts from players like Wakefield, ready to give up. Then they showed up and Millar started talking and talking and talking about how they were still in it, about how if they won tonight, they’d have Pedro and Schilling the next 2, and that anything could happen in a Game 7. But even that is convenient narrative recasting. Because the team was about to get swept against the best closer in the history of the game before they eked out a run to keep themselves alive.
The moral here is that it doesn’t matter how the players felt two days ago or yesterday or even this morning. What matters is who they are and what they are when the ball goes live. And for all of us here, the lesson is don’t count this team out. Don’t give up early. Even the direst of circumstances can turn around. So believe. Believe in this team. Believe in the players. Believe in the Celtics. Because Miami should be afraid to let us win this game tonight.
What a load of shit. They played well this season and won the first 2 rounds against game opponents. Now they lost because they’re sad about Ime? Fuck off with that.Guessing it was this from Woj:

Yes and this:What a load of shit. They played well this season and won the first 2 rounds against game opponents. Now they lost because they’re sad about Ime? Fuck off with that.
Win one fucking game. Start there, and only there.Woj has been a pretty consistent water-carrier for Udoka, right? Fuck both those guys.
I tend to agree with respect to Woj and the Ime shit, but there's a ton of other smoke out there with regard to the players and their feelings on Coach Joe. I think that relationship is dust at this point. Hoping to be proven wrong though.What a load of shit. They played well this season and won the first 2 rounds against game opponents.

Can the Celtics be idiots?
They have the same agent.Woj has been a pretty consistent water-carrier for Udoka, right? Fuck both those guys.
Shit, this doesn't matter at all but I am glad someone is projecting some confidence!
Correct. Both represented by CAA (who represents basically all of the talent on ESPN)They have the same agent.
video proofShit, this doesn't matter at all but I am glad someone is projecting some confidence!
Go out and execute and win tonight. It will likely be a dogfight, because with the Heat it always is, but get a win
Outside of Tatum, it would seem so. Then again, it seems they pushed Brad out too, so at what point is it maybe just get Marcus out of the locker room? And Brown apparently didn’t like Ime, so I really don’t know who would make these guys happy.I tend to agree with respect to Woj and the Ime shit, but there's a ton of other smoke out there with regard to the players and their feelings on Coach Joe.

Narrator: they won’t.
You may be right. So you'll be hate watching then?Narrator: they won’t.
What? Brown didnt like Ime? He helped Ime get hired? Not sure where you got thatOutside of Tatum, it would seem so.
