Yall must not be a true celtics fan. Yes this year was disappointing but we had a good year. If we play defense and go to the hole more we will be just fine next year. I love this core group and i love this organization. Seen the celtics win it in 2008 and back in the finals in 2010 and then 2022. Btw i was 8 when they won it last. So dont give up on this team! Celtic for life!
I love this group too and I believe in them all. Heartbreaking loss at the end of it all, but you cant let that overshadow what good we did this year. Hoping for Jaylen to improve ball handling in the off season, and we need to get Robert Williams more involved! Let's go green can't wait for next season 👍
They choked just like the bruins. Regular season dominance does not translate to playoff and championship wins. Bad coaching and poor execution. Reliance on 3pointers, turnovers, and no defense. This group cannot run it back with any hope of a chip without a real coach or better support staff, a decent big man with front court presence and scoring, and numerous changes. This ain't your PP KG squad when you have no inside game and 40-50 3pt chucks. 😢😂 .
Better than fans who don't hold their teams to a high standard. Lakers arena sounds like a library in the playoffs. I'll take Boston fans any day. These men make millions of dollars playing a sport. We expect them to play hard and win.
You are %100 correct in writing that we need to go to hole more. Unfortunately the Zcelts have fallen in love with shooting the low percentage 3. Going to the hole is a high percentage shot with oppurtunity to draw fouls. We need a true center/ big man that is a scoring threat too
I’m proud of this team after what happened at the beginning of the year we could have been way worse off. Recharge and regroup joe will have his staff for next year and in his first year he made it to game 7 of the ecf hell of a coach. Tatum will be 26 and jb will be 27 outside of Kobe and dwade they won chips at 24 and under. Mj won his first chip at 28, lebron at 27 and Steph at 27 put that into perspective. These guys are so young and if you ain’t here when we losing don’t be here when we winning. #bleedgreen
@@lugachris9499 He was a great coach too obviously but he’s gone now. Honestly don’t want to here about him anymore he’s gone now. He gonna be stuck in poverty for the next few years with houston. Next year will be better joe had no time and still we had a great season
@@RayyRayyGames ofc we have a great season, cause we have lot of talents. Joe just doesn't know how to use his weapon. Make JT and JB primary ball handler when both of them could be greatest finisher in the league. Draw a play, make a screen, attack the paint, make on of them open.
Ngl It would be perfect if we could get Tyus jones to come off the bench. Consistently one of the best & underrated true pg in nba past couple of years. Always made sure Memphis was still winning even when ja was out. Almost makes 0 mistakes offensively. And isn’t a huge liability defensively. Also Payton Pritchard had a top 10 assist to TO ratio last season I would’ve liked to see him get more minutes. Monte morris or mike Conley would be a good addition too.
the whole "real fans don't criticize the franchise" take is so damn tired. we're wasting the prime years of our best players and people still accept "we gotta be better" as an excuse. foh.
I’m worried about our future, listening to brad scares me, when the reporter asked brad about reliance on 3 pointers he immediately went to “I’d love all of them to be dunks” to get away from the question, I hope he doesn’t promote this live by the 3 die by the 3 mentality, it doesn’t have to be dunks or 3’s there is this thing called mid range that our team doesn’t know anything about and it’s why we haven’t won a title, the warriors are the only team to win a title shooting a ton of 3’s, we don’t have those players and that system of movement so it’s not gonna win these Celtics a championship, they need an offense that forces them to move and get better looks that forces the defense to move and get out of position, one of the jays is gonna have to learn to play with their back to the basket more or get a guy who can score in the post, if we aren’t hitting 3’s we lose and that’s a shitty way to try and win a championship
They even told Jaylen Brown to stop shooting mid range jumpers a few years ago (which is the best shot in his arsenal) in favor of 3s. Completely ruined his development imo by not focusing on his strength and asking him to be someone he’s not.
@@ytp9457 Jaylen’s been fine lol they told Tatum to stop taking mid ranges. Someone on the coaching staff when we down 3-0 said fuck that bc Tatum started taking way more frequent mid ranges since game 3
Drive through: Hello welcome to the Boston Celtics what would you like to order? Me: Hi, le me get a new head coach, a point guard and a couple of trades please, with hot sauce
If they want to be so reliant on 3s organizationally they should consider moving on from jb he’s pretty average from 3 and the ft line …. Analytically speaking
There’s a reason a lot of head coaches usually have a DECADE of being an nba assistant head coach before being a head coach! Joe is years away from being at the right level. Now we’re gonna keep him, not win for 2-3 years, then move on from him. Wasting years of JT and maybe JB’s prime
Brad, being a nice guy wont guarantee a championship. Looks like you care more about your guys career than winning a ring, rolling with your guys, Joe, Smart, AL, JB isnt working, be a GM and make the tough decisions dont worry about your friends feelings worry about winning.
A lot of you aren’t a fan of the Celtics as you suggest you are. Clearly this team needs improvement but nothing drastic. One game short of the NBA finals hurts and this team knows that. They will champion this loss. Boston played their worst stretch of basketball in the playoffs and made their own coffin. The best teacher is experience, they will adjust. Whether you believe it or not.
Brad you have to eat this one. Both you and the organization. You let HR issues get out in public and cost you a championship. Joe is NOT the one. JB will only be there one more year, then he is going to ask for a trade.

Brad knows infinitely more about basketball than I but he isn't talking about the problems so many people are seeing. Inconsistent defense, poor cutting, poor ball movement, taking threes too quickly, not solving the zone. And what did this team really learn from 2022? We've got one key player who hasn't yet spent a summer addressing obvious problems dribbling. And so forth. Yeah they started really well in the regular season, but they fell off. And in the playoffs, where things are very different, they were well short of their potential. I really hope Mazulla can address all that but boy I haven't seen much sign that he's the guy to do so.
Look I like Jaylen Brown he seems like a stand up guy. However on the court he makes far to many turnovers , takes bad shots and does not move well without the ball. I really think hard before giving him the max. What this team needs is a true PG and a big body down low.
All this press conference was is coachspeak. Brad was down the middle with all his comments, just a lot of nothing in my opinion. Please explain how you improved the roster Brad (with the acquistion of Brogdon) yet the team regressed? I think a lot of Celtics fans know the answer, do you??
Personally I never thought brogdon really wanted to come off the bench. He took the position as to not ruin the chemistry. I mean if we're being real, marcus smart is a 6th man guy who got the starter job because of attrition from previous yrs. His numbers don't jump out as a Starter. And the intangibles that defined his game like hustle and D fell off sharply these last two yrs. To me his jekyll and hyde playing style reflects the identity of the team. Got to have tough convos there because ya PG is an extension of the coach. The market don't look great so I won't be shocked if the Cs dont change much the roster outside of getting a big man who can play D and has scoring

"Why are all NBA Supermax stars struggling to deal with the defense of the same team that beat the Bucks down into submission and who have the best coach in the East?" FTFY
That is because the grew up on AAU circuit, where they don't learn fundamentals and work on superstar moves. Great recipe for Offensive greatness, but terrible for leadership and chips.
@@JKeemTV The Heat beating the Bucks is getting overplayed. Giannis missed nearly 3 full games in the series! Boston had zero excuses. Joe is arrogant and smug and because of that he will never improve. Brad gave Joe a great roster! He literally added a 6th man of the year. Joe should’ve had Grant in the rotation all year and should’ve been far more prepared for the zone amongst other things. He is not worthy of coaching this team. Quin Snyder was available and it obviously didn’t bother him to join the Hawks midway through a season.
guys guys cmon brad this team has soooooooooooo mmmmuuuuccchhh talent on both sides of the ball but they lack mental toughness and poise when things get tight like crunch time thats where mental toughness and poise comes in. im sorry joe doesnt have that. when they r jacking up threes and continue to just jack up threes its a coachs job to call frieken timeout!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! and get on his team calm them down get back to playing celtic basketball and brad is believing in this guy omg until they get mentally tougher and poise they will continue to struggle in late game crunch time in the 4rth quarter tight situations. thats where mental toughness and poise comes into play and thats where your coach is soooooooooooo important!!!!!!! games 1 2 is unacceptable twice losing in the 4rth quarter then go to game 3 just quit. i cant believe brad is saying this bs i guarentee if celtics win either game 1 or 2 celtics r in the finals right now sooooooooooooooo sooooooooooooooo frustrating brad
Crazy comments on here. Brad is 100%. We had the 2nd best offense and the 2nd best defense. All this team needs are some tweaks. Personnel wise, coaching wise. The one thing id like to see is a true post up big man. I think if Rob can get the whole yea r under his belt he could be th at guy, maybe add a mid range shot. Love hoford, love everything he's done for this team but he's getting pretty long in the tooth. If we can find a more dominant young big you'd have to consider making a move.
The thing about the Celtics that is aggravating and frustrating is that they just don't get it! They keep making excuses and can't win. Kendrick Perkins said it best," This is it folks? Settling for second best. When I was in Boston we demanded to win championships. The Celtics are never going to win with this group because of the following reasons: 1) They never break out of bad habits. Next year they will keep jacking up threes and creating turnovers. 2) Tatum and Brown lack the competitive edge to win . They have been to four ECF's and have win one and couldn't win the championship. 3) There's no accountability. The Celtics don't have a Kevin Garnett that is intense or a Draymond Green who is going to call somebody out. In the Dan Shaunghasy's book On Top Of The World which is about the 2008 Boston Celtics championship season, Doc Rivers called out Paul Pierce and said," You think you're a great shooter but you're not because you don't hit the shots that really matter." Nobody tells Tatum, Brown, and Smart to just shut up and play and stop arguing with the refs all the time. 4) You watch next year at media day before the season begins the players will say the same narrative," We looked at the tapes, we studied film and made the right adjustments and we will be ready to go for banner 18." Then they will do the same thing they did this year except get eliminated in the first and second round of the playoffs.

When you keep getting the the ECF there does not need to be major changes. 26 of 30 teams didn't make the conference finals. So I guess they all need major changes. Stop it
@@paulclancy789 If that's your goal, getting to the ECF, then true. Want to win a championship? Major changes are required. Can't trade Tatum or Brown (nor would you want to), but Marcus Smart has to go. He absolutely does not have the skill set required for this team to win a championship and he is a problem for the coaching staff.. Running this team back as is has disaster written all over it. I am sure they are all very fine people and good basketball players, but in aggregate, it is a toxic brew of losing mentality. I guess they are keeping Mazzulla and bringing in experienced bench coaches to undermine his authority even further, which strikes me as foolish. NBA windows to win championships have a way of suddenly ending, and the new CBA is bad for the Celts-they have to go all in next year.
@@bobqzzi he’s basically saying there’s no reason to make major changes we were 1 game away from the finals. Add more coaching depth and maybe make a few minor tweaks. Blowing this team up or trading Brown for an entirely new player who’s new to the organization is 10 steps back and none forward.
@@malachi4151 They got beat by an 8 seed and absolutely gave up in 2 finals games. They couldn't take care of business in Atlanta or Philly. Their offense goes stagnant; they forget how to play defense for long periods of time. They can't finish games. They were basically a .500 team after the all-star break. They have to keep Tatum and Brown because you can't replace that kind of talent. They absolutely don't have to keep smart who lacks the point guard skills required to make this team winners. This 'one step away from the finals" is total BS. They had a *better* roster this year and much worse results
@@bobqzzi They got beat by an 8 seed who has the best coach on the NBA. This 8 seed beat the bucks who were favored to win it all. Had a better roster and an inexperienced coach. Lmao is not BS you’re just being unrealistic and unfair. We also had Will hardy and Damon Studmire apart of our coaching staff. Please stop it go look at Miami coaching staff and then ours and you’d see exactly why we lost
Outrageous excuse-making and loser mentality from Brad. The players are all lying, our defense is great because of a regular-season statistic. Joe did a great job, despite the obvious massive blunder after blunder the whole world saw. He's bringing the entire core and Joe back, I am officially done with this team. There's zero accountability, Smart and the Jays will continue to run the team and commit turnover after turnover with zero accountability. No mention of acquiring a true PG. The definition of insanity is doing the same thing over and over and expecting a different result. Enjoy 2023-24 guys, I for one am done
I have to disagree. It's a young team and they will continue to grow and get better. With attitudes like that you might as well not watch the celtics ever again
@dgmaffi I hear you. I'm just trying to stay positive. I'm not happy how it ended how how inconsistent and sloppy they were. They definitely need to clean some things up for sure. Now I'm praying the Pats can be better this upcoming season. Peace
No because the black players don't want to play for a little white man who never played in the NBA. Ridiculous I know, but that's where we are in our culture. Brad should still be the coach.
@@FireKickz Talking about the reality of Management really being the issue when nobody else is. That is doing more than you know, but that’s neither here nor there. What your really upset about is that I’m actually making sense… Dare you question my logic and insight…?
You are experimenting. You put an unriped coach to lead a championship caliber team who in the playoffs, barely won the first round, almost lost in the second round, and completely pounded in the ECF. There are big coaches in the market right now and yet you still stick with the rookie. smh 🤏🏼

"Why are all NBA Supermax stars struggling to deal with the defense of the same team that beat the Bucks down into submission and who have the best coach in the East?" FTFY
That is because the grew up on AAU circuit, where they don't learn fundamentals and work on superstar moves. Great recipe for Offensive greatness, but terrible for leadership and chips.
@@JKeemTV The Heat beating the Bucks is getting overplayed. Giannis missed nearly 3 full games in the series! Boston had zero excuses. Joe is arrogant and smug and because of that he will never improve. Brad gave Joe a great roster! He literally added a 6th man of the year. Joe should’ve had Grant in the rotation all year and should’ve been far more prepared for the zone amongst other things. He is not worthy of coaching this team. Quin Snyder was available and it obviously didn’t bother him to join the Hawks midway through a season.
@@JKeemTV the Heat haven’t beaten anyone else on a Supermax actually. It’s a dumb comment for more reasons than that, however
guys guys cmon brad this team has soooooooooooo mmmmuuuuccchhh talent on both sides of the ball but they lack mental toughness and poise when things get tight like crunch time thats where mental toughness and poise comes in. im sorry joe doesnt have that. when they r jacking up threes and continue to just jack up threes its a coachs job to call frieken timeout!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! and get on his team calm them down get back to playing celtic basketball and brad is believing in this guy omg until they get mentally tougher and poise they will continue to struggle in late game crunch time in the 4rth quarter tight situations. thats where mental toughness and poise comes into play and thats where your coach is soooooooooooo important!!!!!!! games 1 2 is unacceptable twice losing in the 4rth quarter then go to game 3 just quit. i cant believe brad is saying this bs i guarentee if celtics win either game 1 or 2 celtics r in the finals right now sooooooooooooooo sooooooooooooooo frustrating brad
you didn't do your job at the trade deadline.many great players undrafted and had waive.why you didn't see GM?
Why is he smiling like that? Fire Stevens. Just a clownshow press. Just way to optimistic... like blindly
NK. you must of watched a completely different press conference than this one.
Smug
Man, I should have betted on Miami winning in 7 after game 6. I could have been rich. XD
Crazy comments on here. Brad is 100%. We had the 2nd best offense and the 2nd best defense. All this team needs are some tweaks. Personnel wise, coaching wise. The one thing id like to see is a true post up big man. I think if Rob can get the whole yea r under his belt he could be th at guy, maybe add a mid range shot. Love hoford, love everything he's done for this team but he's getting pretty long in the tooth. If we can find a more dominant young big you'd have to consider making a move.
The thing about the Celtics that is aggravating and frustrating is that they just don't get it! They keep making excuses and can't win. Kendrick Perkins said it best," This is it folks? Settling for second best. When I was in Boston we demanded to win championships. The Celtics are never going to win with this group because of the following reasons: 1) They never break out of bad habits. Next year they will keep jacking up threes and creating turnovers. 2) Tatum and Brown lack the competitive edge to win . They have been to four ECF's and have win one and couldn't win the championship. 3) There's no accountability. The Celtics don't have a Kevin Garnett that is intense or a Draymond Green who is going to call somebody out. In the Dan Shaunghasy's book On Top Of The World which is about the 2008 Boston Celtics championship season, Doc Rivers called out Paul Pierce and said," You think you're a great shooter but you're not because you don't hit the shots that really matter." Nobody tells Tatum, Brown, and Smart to just shut up and play and stop arguing with the refs all the time. 4) You watch next year at media day before the season begins the players will say the same narrative," We looked at the tapes, we studied film and made the right adjustments and we will be ready to go for banner 18." Then they will do the same thing they did this year except get eliminated in the first and second round of the playoffs.
What about Danilo G?
Joe Mazulla got a FREE ride to the playoffs from a team that lost in the Finals last year…!!!! Joe is a TERRIBLE COACH… He should never have been Coaching a team of this caliber… Stoudamire was available, Avery Johnson was available Rick Carlisle and so in… Brad Handicapped this team with an inexperienced rookie coach who didn’t know anything and changed a roster built around defensive versatility into a n offensively focused team. Not considering the roster make up. This team has no knock down shooters but Joe wants threes and almost nothing else… Joe is a liability…!!!! There’s no way you should pair the J’s with an inexperienced Rookie Coach.. That is how to waste potential & blow opportunities…!!!! #BradIsBadForBoston

Lay off the crack a lil, homie
We won’t win till Brads gone he’s mediocre
84 points in a game 7. 84 points!!! And Joe did a heck of a job with that talent. Theirs a guy lying if ever there was one.
There’s* a reason why Brad Stevens is the GM, and you aren’t. Casual.
@@ThePartarar okay settle for just season success not playoff success because it’ll never happen under Joe.
bro named chelton jones Lmfao
Very even and measured- which is his job. Hopefully he knows there needs to be major changes and is just putting on a positive spin.
When you keep getting the the ECF there does not need to be major changes. 26 of 30 teams didn't make the conference finals. So I guess they all need major changes. Stop it
@@paulclancy789 If that's your goal, getting to the ECF, then true. Want to win a championship? Major changes are required. Can't trade Tatum or Brown (nor would you want to), but Marcus Smart has to go. He absolutely does not have the skill set required for this team to win a championship and he is a problem for the coaching staff.. Running this team back as is has disaster written all over it. I am sure they are all very fine people and good basketball players, but in aggregate, it is a toxic brew of losing mentality. I guess they are keeping Mazzulla and bringing in experienced bench coaches to undermine his authority even further, which strikes me as foolish.
NBA windows to win championships have a way of suddenly ending, and the new CBA is bad for the Celts-they have to go all in next year.
@@bobqzzi he’s basically saying there’s no reason to make major changes we were 1 game away from the finals. Add more coaching depth and maybe make a few minor tweaks. Blowing this team up or trading Brown for an entirely new player who’s new to the organization is 10 steps back and none forward.
@@malachi4151 They got beat by an 8 seed and absolutely gave up in 2 finals games. They couldn't take care of business in Atlanta or Philly. Their offense goes stagnant; they forget how to play defense for long periods of time. They can't finish games. They were basically a .500 team after the all-star break. They have to keep Tatum and Brown because you can't replace that kind of talent. They absolutely don't have to keep smart who lacks the point guard skills required to make this team winners. This 'one step away from the finals" is total BS. They had a *better* roster this year and much worse results
@@bobqzzi They got beat by an 8 seed who has the best coach on the NBA. This 8 seed beat the bucks who were favored to win it all. Had a better roster and an inexperienced coach. Lmao is not BS you’re just being unrealistic and unfair. We also had Will hardy and Damon Studmire apart of our coaching staff. Please stop it go look at Miami coaching staff and then ours and you’d see exactly why we lost

Hows JY
We accomplished MORE last season Brad.. Thanks for Orchestrating this decline…!😊🍀
The 2 Js played so bad, that they need to be investigated for selling the game to the mafia.
Tatum averaged 27 points, 10 rebounds, and 5 assists in the playoffs. You're clueless.
@@chrish2112 YADA YADA YADA.... Clearly you did not watched the games.
@@rommelpascual8798 I actually did. Tatum was pretty damned good for most of the playoffs. You know nothing about basketball.
@@chrish2112 facts. dudes a clueless moron. If that's bad give me 5 of them and we win title every single year!
Udoka - I wore a condom no skin on skin contact so it's not cheating.
Outrageous excuse-making and loser mentality from Brad. The players are all lying, our defense is great because of a regular-season statistic. Joe did a great job, despite the obvious massive blunder after blunder the whole world saw. He's bringing the entire core and Joe back, I am officially done with this team. There's zero accountability, Smart and the Jays will continue to run the team and commit turnover after turnover with zero accountability. No mention of acquiring a true PG. The definition of insanity is doing the same thing over and over and expecting a different result. Enjoy 2023-24 guys, I for one am done
Shut up Brad your not even Accountable…!!! 💯💯💯🍀
Stevens is the problem...they not going win with him
Next season is his last chance imo.
I like Joe , but man he is really a bad coach.
This franchise is doomed!
I agree the Celtics will never make the nba finals again
I have to disagree. It's a young team and they will continue to grow and get better. With attitudes like that you might as well not watch the celtics ever again
@@WassupBRanG Don't worry. I am all set watching a professional H.O.R.S.E team. But you keep singing your tune, "Everything is awesome...."
@dgmaffi I hear you. I'm just trying to stay positive. I'm not happy how it ended how how inconsistent and sloppy they were. They definitely need to clean some things up for sure. Now I'm praying the Pats can be better this upcoming season. Peace
WassupBRanG I’m a diehard lakers fan I’m happy the Celtics lost and that won’t ever get 18
Can he not be both GM/coach like Pop was?
No because the black players don't want to play for a little white man who never played in the NBA. Ridiculous I know, but that's where we are in our culture. Brad should still be the coach.
No he shouldn’t…!!!!#BradBallIsBadBallFullOfFlaws
Great, I’d love to root for Detroit this year…!!! 💯Joe Mazulla 🟰♿️
bro get a life 😂
@@FireKickz Your mad I’m exposing Management that’s weird . Do you work for Brad…? I’m curious??
@@superSIZEmee what’re you doing to expose management? by commenting on a youtube video 5+ times?
@@FireKickz Talking about the reality of Management really being the issue when nobody else is. That is doing more than you know, but that’s neither here nor there. What your really upset about is that I’m actually making sense… Dare you question my logic and insight…?
@@FireKickz Didn’t think so
You are experimenting. You put an unriped coach to lead a championship caliber team who in the playoffs, barely won the first round, almost lost in the second round, and completely pounded in the ECF. There are big coaches in the market right now and yet you still stick with the rookie. smh 🤏🏼
