Y’all thought I was joking about his ineptitude all season? This is something I have been wailing about from the start of the season. We have not even talked about throwing the correct lineup, use of time out and final 2 minutes adjustments. Man is a joke when it comes to coaching. I’d admit the players were poor but man, Mazzulla made class clown!
When they say it's better to keep quiet and let people assume you're a mumu than to talk and remove all doubt. He's exactly what we're talking about. Overall your Celtics are a very indisciplined team it must be said, I don't recall a team that lost 6 home games without even making the Finals. That's egregious

However there's also a smugness and arrogance I sense with Mazzulla. This is good when you have conviction and know what you're doing not when your clueless like he is.

The problem is not even in the lineup IMO. The problem is he's a poor man's D'Antoni and Daryl Morey that believe spamming 3s is the only path to success. Jayson Tatum and Jaylen Brown have bought into that philosophy and instead of these two big wings to become efficient midrange scorers they become inefficient 3pt spammers.

Look at Booker and KD the only two guys that gave the Nuggets any real problems. What did they have in common? Solid midrange game.

It's just like golf. Anybody can hit the ball hard and long but the short game is where it's usually won and lost for those who know

Facts, big facts. I think this is ultimately on the coach, it's your responsibility to draw up plays for your team and ensure your team sticks to it.

When you see your star player struggling, spamming threes and can't draw up a simple play to give him an easy point or preach patience and ball movement, then it means you are either a clueless coach or the players don't respect your voice.
The more I hear Mazzulla talk the more I realize he's simply unfit for the job.

His strategy at this point is send the players on the court and the more 3s we shoot the more we can win. This only works when you have prime Steph and Klay and this is what a lot of these coaches refuse to understand.

Even look at that game there was a point they kept missing almost ten 3s straight and at no point did they say let's switch it up

Jaylen Brown who used to be a decent 3 level scorer has now embraced Tatum's bad habits of spamming 3s. He's someone that can score exactly like Jimmy does and doesn't need to take more than 3-5 3s a game

They shot 9/42. Just to guarantee they had no shot to win and when you hear Mazzulla it's clear that aside spamming 3s nothing else dey him head

Airport in Akwa Ibom is still very understandable not a dead place like Ekiti.

If Nigeria had a thinking government that place is supposed to be the next hub. I don't see why we can't have a Deep Seaport there to further decongest Lagos.

The annoying part of this saga is the imaginary smooth transition they promised....

I even taught they would wait till we have a bite of Dangote's cake.Atleast landing cost plus some miscellaneous expenses incurred from buying outside the shore will be out by default..
You're following APC mouth? Lol.

Nigerians mumu dey wear seatbelt. Lamido, GEJ, NOI no language they didn't use to try to explain and get the subsidy out of the way. People capitalized on GEJs gentility and were protesting in Ojota. Make them go protest now nau or sing On your mandate we shall stand maybe them go see fuel below black market price

Btw when is the Dangote thing supposed to pop off? I no even dey up to speed on that jazz.

What's so funny about all of this is the person that was at the forefront of Subsidy and Occupy Naija protests got there and subsidy was the first thing they removed. What GEJ tried to do 11 years ago.

Jonathan will be laughing at Nigerians from his Otuoke ranch. Lessons will be learned laslas

Jaylen Brown embodies the problem with this era. This joker been 7/40 from 3 and kept spamming 3s today. Now finished with 1/9

I'm probably letting him go try his luck someplace else
Sports › Re: The NBA Begins by A40(m): 3:33am On May 30, 2023
Celtics deserve this humiliation for the way they treated our Akwa Ibom brother. Firing is one thing but the way they humiliated that nigga. I will be cheering their downfall for sometime


The question now is could this be the last time we see Jayson Tatum and Jaylen Brown on the same team? Will the Celtics give em both $600mplus
Sports › Re: The NBA Begins by A40(m): 3:24am On May 30, 2023
Maybe it's the adrenaline dump maybe the Celtics are just paying for their overall unseriousness.

I wonder what the Sixers will be thinking. They really shat the bed

They are not winning a game being down by 10 in the 4th, against the heat.
The heat are still reeling from that game 6 loss.
They won't be outscored by 10 in the 4th...

Seems Jimmy has run out of gas. I just have a hard time believing he has anything left

And as for Bam. What type of big is shooting 4/16 from the field. I know the Celtics have good defensive bigs but come on 25% from the field is just poverty

I just hope Game 7 is not an anticlimactic blowout like the previous series. We want something close and Angina inducing please

Never seen a purported GOAT excused so much for his failures. When he wins, he did it all by himself, when he loses, its either his teammates, his limbs, climate change or some extraterrestrial factor beyond his control.
Disgusting....
Hahaha such an embarrassing fanbase. This is why neutrals and 'haters' alike cheer with glee when his teams loses. We want to hear what pathetic excuses they come up with this time.

Lool there's plenty of talk about how Adam Silver is writing a script. Where did that 0.9 seconds come from? But I digress

I must say the Jekyll and Hyde nature of the Celtics is quite head scratching. If they make it to the Finals Denver is not going these kind of mistakes.

Relax. Full pre season with your squad and a good summer window then watch Tuchel perform his magic. Tuchel teams have always been free flowing and high scoring.
I kuku saw the Haramball Tuchel played at Chelsea.

They didn't call him Tucheliban for nothing

As far as I'm concerned this was a wasted season and I'm not holding my breath for next season either

Though he's a cup merchant. Let's see if that translates to Europe
