by FLCeltsFan




Imagine if you had been told on draft night that our playoff opener was gonna start with "that rests on the shoulders of Jaime Jacquez Jr"

They have talents we do have the GUTS

Heat will 4-0 Celtics. Mark my words! Lol

Not scared of these soft frontrunners. Keep it close, make it dirty and they will fold like always.

I’m so confident we’re beating Boston

Honestly if nothing else, I just want to exhaust the Celtics this series to make their run difficult. Get it to at least 6 if we aren’t gonna win.

Knowing Boston those tryhards are gonna try to blow us out by 30 we can’t let that happen

We need to make good passes to open guys and open guys need to make shots. Because we’re rarely gonna get open guys. Heat in 5

Plot line got leaked, we're meeting the Lakers in the finals

Tyler Herro 40 point masterclass incoming.

If we're going to win any game in this series, I want it to be the first game so badly. The amount of panic and fear from Celtics fans and the Eastern conference if Spo pulls off an upset of the Celtics in the first game would just be so delicious.

If we can't win at least we'll wear them out which is what I think Celtics fans were hoping to avoid.

They got Jayson Tatum, but we got Haywood Highsmith


Pray Spo has a Porzingis strategy

Tyler and JJJ going to have to create a lot of shots tonight. DWhite and Jrue are all nba defense ready.

I hate Jayson and his ugly ahh kid

Whether the Heat win or lose this series, one thing stands.
The day Tatum was drafted I said, "This man will never win a championship."

KP is so annoying to deal with

Looking back at it I saw a lot of heat fans saying to go after porzingus. I really wish we did that move really unlocked the Celtics

It is crazy how cheap Boston got him for as well.

Porz was the perfect pickup for boston. We were always able to match up with them in size but not this year.

Bam and Tyler are so f***ing a** against good teams lmao

Amazing playoff exposure for our young guns. Boston can think they are getting revenge, but without Butler, this series will always have that asterisk. (MY NOTE: Who cares? It's all about 18 )

Outstanding start. Bore them into submission.

Cmom Spo work your magic baby!

These bums really assembled this whole team just to lose to the Nuggets

Hoping for a W, expecting two blowouts Who am I kidding, probably 4 tbh

Mazzula studied Spo all off-season and has his “call timeout and storm onto the court” move down

I swear Boston has to go broke from 3 at some point

Tyler is gonna be in jail for the whole series. They have two all nba defenders at the guard position whose sole focus will be him.

Brown is such a dork. Hits a 3, literally first bucket of the game, and blows kisses to the crowd. Lol

Just can’t wait for the Celtics 60$m man to choke in the playoffs like he always does.

Somehow Jaylen Brown has a smaller bag than Bam

We got to beat the refs and Boston this series

We looking poised. Jaylen brown starting to show his true colors

Tatum still stinky

Nice move by Mozzulla, pulled Tatum when he started getting selfish

One person I dont ever want to win a chip is Al Horford, f*** this bozo.

Celtics are front runners. Gotta keep hold of the rope and we have a chance

Someone on Miami needs to be talking **** to Tatum, as good as he is you can bait him into trying to do too much which hurts Boston and so far he is hurting them trying to force his scoring.

Really good defense, bad offense, keep that defense and go to the paint. Cs offense is just pull up 3s and pray they go in

Take away their 14-0 start and we’re up 7!!!

Boston hasn’t changed since last year. Still chuckling 3s. When the 3s go cold they’re beatable

Spo > Mazulla. The only reason we are within 5.

Zone can’t work all game long. Teams will figure it out sooner or later

I know C’s fans are happy that a classy player like Hauser is hot right now

Bruh you can not leave hauser and Pritchard open, is that not on the scouting report?

Stop leaving this homeless looking Gordon Hayward guy open!

It’s bad when they’re getting a rando like Hauser hitting 3’s like Curry

Why do we keep leaving these red hot guys open

My most hated Celtic is Doris Burke Her takes are the opposite of reality

It's obvious that the Celtics have studied this zone defense

Why is Boston 3point shooting so da** good

Because they’re wide the f*** open

Check the rims for a magnet , those 3’s are going in a lot one-sided.

Maybe don’t switch off hauser?

Ok guys, forgive me for being a sheltered Heat fan that doesn't really pay attention to other teams that much. But who tf is Sam Hauser. Never heard of him before this year

The Celtics would be dog sh** if the 3 point line didn’t exist

leaving the corner 3 open is not the winning game plan

Okay lets just not guard that same player in the same corner....

Smallest guy on the court grabbing an offensive rebound and an uncontested layup c'mon bruh

Bam and Herro disappearing again

Bruh, Pritchard just bodied Delon

Letting Pritchard get a rebound over you is hilarious

LOL can't box out the smallest guy on the court...

Refs against us aswell.

How is Hauser not on our scouting report? He's a known shooter ..

Spo is having maz run circles around him How is Spo bamboozled by the Cs simply playing specialists to counter zone

coach is clueless sorry way i see it

Spo is just a clueless coach, he doesnt have the slightest idea how to get the right players at the right time, that is one of the reasons the team plays better when he is forced to play without one of the main guys.

It kinda looks like Spo is going with the Bam plays and sits with Porz, but if the Celtics never need Porz out there then what lol

If you’re gonna leave a guy open on Boston that guy should be Sam Hauser. But DA** he killing us rn. (MY NOTE: Really? Sam's 42.4% from 3)

Every time I see this playoff Tatum commercial I get annoyed

This pretty much shows the difference between having Robert Williams and KP as your Center. The zone is going to be broken

I know it’s too early to say but Herro is not “that guy”

Completely overmatched gonna be a painful sweep

ESPN promoting Doris Burke is why their corporation is in the absolute gutter rn. Everything wrong with their decision making in one move.

Herros absolute ceiling is a microwave 6th man who comes in and cooks the other teams bench scrubs.

we lost the second we played zone. Boston wants to take 50 threes a game. Zero adjustments so far

Does Spo not have a SINGLE play drawn up to get an open 3 against a man defense???

What even is the point of Herro if he doesnt hit the shots? Might as well play someone that can at least play defense

The Heat got dawgs. The big dawg is injured and Herro is a poodle.

Neo Nazis across the globe are seeing this 15 point lead and celebrating the fact their one seed is doing so well against a injured 8th seed

Not trading Herro for actual help is going to be a stain on Pat's legacy

jrue holiday what a great allround player

how the f did they get both holiday and porz

I really wanted Miami to be in on Kristaps. Him going to Boston was worst case scenario. Although with Miami’s medical team, he’d probably have died

any team that would have addred porz and holiday would be very good .too bad pat couldnt pull it off

Jaime’s defense is absolutely horrible

Our effort when it came to getting rebounds has been pathetic the Celtics have gotten 6 offensive rebounds in this half and probably scored every single time.

Did jrue holiday buy an airplane ticket mid game ?

Jrue Holiday saw Jimmys ghost while he went up for that layup

Did Holiday just become useless all of a sudden

Bucks fan here, that is Jrues playoff specialty. He historical is a bum shooter in the playoffs.

Herro is such a fraud

We really should’ve went after zingus. Made a ton of sense too. If only to keep him out of the Celtics hands. Heat way too complacent as usual. Jimmy would have a ring by now if not for horrible moves made or not made by the front office

We seen this coming but the fact that’s it’s Boston hits me with hatred bruh

I need to have a word with the Wizards GM because why the f*** did they send Porzingis to Boston

Idk what we do with Porzingis. Tall as sh** with Curry range. We just have to hope he misses

If any Boston fan celebrates winning this series (which will probably be a sweep) without jimmy they’re pathetic tbh (MY NOTE: I will celebrate #18 no matter how we get it)

Sam Hauser has more 3s than the heat as a team lol

Celtics playing full strength against an injured 8th seed. Disgusting behaviour smh ban them

Let's be honest, we weren't gonna win with Butler anyways. We don't have good enough shooters. Missing wide open jumpers is ridiculous

It’s sad thinking of all of the once available pieces who could’ve put this team over the top. Porzingis could’ve made us a championship squad

Jrue’s locking down Herro to this extent only makes Jimmy performance last year that more impressive

CDN media

I hope Duncan doesn’t see another minute in this game. Dude doesn’t look healthy and his shots were already on the decline prior to the back issue

Not only are we getting outshot, we also getting outhustled as well

I can live with Tatum doing his Kobe impersonation. It’s the Hauser practice shots that kill me.

Learn Chinese Tyler, nobody in the league wants that sorry sh**
j
Came in with no expectations, and I'm still being let down.

turd quarter and herro getting hunted by jrue holiday

all they do is jack threes and it works

Terry will come back next game and drop 40 on these bums

Caleb the magic is done stop it

The Celtics conserve so much energy on offense cause all they do is chuck threes

We werent beating this version of the Celtics with a healthy Jimmy and Rozier.

Pritchard outplaying Herro not surprised

KIlled by Porzingis Houser and Prichard...

We really going to have to include Jaime in every single Herro trade in order to get that worthless bum off our team huh?

Herro has zero trade value hope y’all realize that. He’s due 60MM over next two seasons. Nobody wants that contract, we’re stuck

Herro so limited physically. Big wings eat him alive and that’s bostons whole team lol

That Paul Pierce KG trade really bailed these f***ers out

Herro stinking it up on both ends. I wish he were injured instead of Jimmy

Bam apparently forgot how to play basketball

How can the Celtics get Tingus and then add Jrue while we get Delon Wright?

Difference between an elite FO and an incompetent one sadly

Genuine question how is anyone still defending Pat Riley? He hasnt done SH** to get us over the hump in the Jimmy era while every other team in the East has as least TRIED to make big upgrades

I don’t see how we win even with Jimmy. Bottom line, the Celtics reloaded and spent money this off-season and got much much better, as their record shows. And the Heat…….did a money saving move by trading for an inefficient Rozier. Now we have 2 inefficient guards on Rozier and Herro. We got worse. As our record shows.

I don’t think I’ve ever seen a max player as soft as Bam is on offense. Dude is a mental midget.

Celtics weakness the past five years has been their three point shooting. Looks like they finally fixed it with Portzingis

I’m chalking it up man Celtics got toooo many players that can take over


We don’t got one

If we had Brad Stevens instead of Riley we would have gotten Dame.

If Caleb was the shooter, JFK would've had a long life.

Celtics play like an online 2k player

Good news! Horford doesn’t look like he can hurt us anymore!

Man front office smoking dope if we can’t improve man…. How did they get Kristaps man

Honestly Celtics front office snapped Getting prozingus and holiday an insane feat and keeping your core as well

I think with Prozingis now they have exactly what they need to compete with and beat Denver

Incredible that Sam Hauser, 42% 3PT shooter comes off the bench for this team

Porzingis the racist and rapist

Let’s keep doubling Tatum and leaving their shooters surely they’ll miss the next wide open 3!

We need Grant Williams to poke the bear. Any bear at this point looks on active roster for a “bear”

Ready for a fake comeback to get it close to 8 then get blown out by 20 at the end. (MY NOTE: Yep.)

Too many days of Jimmy taking off or playing half-a**ed games just to get Injured before he plays a single playoff game.

26-7 run and we still down 15 hahaha. These sorts of lulls are what will allow us to take a game this series.

legendary comeback brewing lmao

Imagine we didn’t go down by 35

lmao Celtics not taking this seriously

Boston is so soft Jaquez > Jaylen Jovic > Jaylen

Lmfaooooooooooo Celtics are frauds dude. No way they win the chip

Boston aint winning a championship with this style of play , 42 out of the 64 shots from 3.

They have so many versatile players that they can play both in and out. Which is why they're lethal. Gotta chase them off the three point line though.

Herro is one of the goats at statpadding after having disaster classes, gotta hand it to him

Lmao this celtics team is nothing special.

Alright, losing by 20 is far less embarrassing

we remember how to play basketball with 4 minutes left lol

Porzingis really is the ghost of Dirk

We should try to injure Boston players to have a shot of winning this series

Celtics a bunch of dirty b**ches

Guys, we won a quarter!

I'm just happy we've garbage timed ourselves close to 100. Cause dude..if they kept their foot on the gas I feel like we weren't going to pass 80.

Onto the next one, let’s hope the 3pt game from them today was just a fluke…

Honestly my biggest take away is that Celtics are 22/49 from three and to be quite honest looking at their record this season that’s not a fluke and it will happen again.

Caleb is so dumb lol. Did Tatum try to elbow him?

dirty play martin out of control dirty play

Wait, why did Martin get a tech?? he just tried helping Tatum up, and it was Brown that made the fuss

I bet that be all over twitter saying the Heat are dirty . Knicks fans and Celtics fans gonna have a field day .

flying your pointed A#$ into someones back going up is not boxing out! dirty play yes .suspension warranted prob not tatum just shook it off like it ws nothing.if he got hurt martin def suspended

Yeah, you don’t make those fouls. Wouldn’t be surprised if that goes until review and he is out next game.

agree if he did that to me id be at hosp and im 6 1 215

We need to play physical like that make them earn it

Yessssss Caleb this is the way. The only thing he did wrong was not undercut that lil bish even harder

he going to feel that in the morning. that was a hard a** fall

Tatum really tried to do that thinking he all that. I hate him so much

Jrue shoved Tatum now everyone gonna call Caleb dirty

Lol Brian Scalabrine is a scumbag to think spo would actually call such a play.. nothing dirty with that play by caleb, just lost his momentum while tatum was in the air.. how do ypu draw something like that up? Idiot. And wtf was tatum doing in the game? Padding his playoff stats in garbage time?

This Celtics team is Charmin soft

Imagine thinking Caleb is dirty.

We never beating the dirty allegations

Glad Caleb did that to Tatum, keep that same energy the whole series. Atleast go down fighting.
Caleb got bumped into Tatum at full speed, and even checked on him when he went down. Jaylen escalated it for no reason. Soft a** franchise.

Lmaooo MVP chants for Tatum… please

MVP chants for a man who’s had all the tools and failed you over and over again is wild

He’s only 26 that’s the worst part about it smh

Anyways, whatever happens this series, I hope Boston is crushed by whoever they end up facing. Can't think of a more unlikeable franchise besides the Lakers and maybe the Knicks.

Inject stem cells into Jimmy's knee and put a brace on Terry's neck. I've seen enough

we need to play like the 4th quarter but just for the entire game its like they barely tried the first 3 quarters

Or the Celtics didn’t try the 4th quarter.

Remember Tyler Herro said he was on the same level of Tatum

We have lost 7 of our last 8 games to Boston

I gotta say... I did not enjoy that game.

Celtics fans know they got a cupcake win and this series is meaningless bragging rights without Jimmy let alone Rozier too

Im gonna be down bad if the Celtics can find a sucker to take Jaylen Brown

Why didnt we play jovic more?

He was -25. Probably that

Mazulla playing his guys til literally the final whistle is coaching malpractice. Bro would rather let his guys get hurt so Boston fans can call Heat culture dirty. Imagine if Tatum had a Rozier style neck injury on that fall. He would get fired lmao

genuinely though I'm at a loss of how we would even win a single game against them. They are better than us at every position (besides bam over KP) and every facet of the game

They let us get a quarter, don't let us get a half

Can we get 5 minutes at this point?

Draft Bronny

Was a great game until hauser hit 4 3s in a row

Quite frankly, the playoff experience that the young guys are getting is more valuable than whatever the Celtics will get from beating us. So if you look at it like that, we’re the real winners.

Im not even mad about our performance, without butler, we dont belong.
I just hope we can rough up the celtics a bit as they advance to the next round.

Why can’t we have a f***ing monster team like Boston? I can’t stand them b***ards but the team is solid all around, meanwhile our second scoring option continues to sh** the da** bed when we need him the most, I’m getting sick of Herro.

They're not solid. They're loaded. Fully healthy we're solid.

This was painful to watch! I would say we bounce back next game but I would be lying to myself.

I don’t see Boston hitting 22 threes again vs Miami. (MY NOTE: You're right, we didn't. We hit 22. LOL.)

I see more evidence and reason to believe that they could and likely can do that. They could do it on the home and the road.

.

Last year Spo was the coach of the century. Now this:

Spo is having maz run circles around him How is Spo bamboozled by the Cs simply playing specialists to counter zone

coach is clueless sorry way i see it

Spo is just a clueless coach, he doesnt have the slightest idea how to get the right players at the right time, that is one of the reasons the team plays better when he is forced to play without one of the main guys.
