D white shot 9.1 from field and it was a close game. Thats not to say that the pistons played bad shooting wise too.
Garzilla should take the last shot
D white slump gotta get better
Thats was trash ass basketball… I couldn’t tell the difference in sports switching back and forth from CFB …. Basketball should look like Football…. I like Cade I like Duren… But this is not the best team in the east and it’s easy to see why they have so many wins, if they’re allowed to play like this… But why them? Why not other teams in the east? There are answers… But most folks are casual fans and don’t want to hear the truth…. This Shit Is FIXED! Good Night All and Go Cs
Bro you don’t know ball if you think the league or Vegas is fixing for the pistons!
I was so sure JB was going to take it to the hole. I was shocked and stunned that he took the pull-up jumper.
This team can never get anything going in the clutch, we have to be one of the only teams without a game winner this year
great game - missed free throws and early turnovers the difference
Good look by jaylen but just missed it smh I wish he hit those free throws but each matchup with Detroit was 6 points or less and jaylen scored 30+ each game. Get a big at the deadline and get Tatum back and we’re cool
Is it crazy that I wanted Garza in there to tip in a possible miss? 😅
I trust Derrick to eventually stop shitting himself too
still a legit team. playoffs will be fun
Yeah I’m glad the C’s aren’t going over to the Pistons high fiving to each other fuck that
Good game refs. Yal came out on top this time
Good game though. When JT is back we will rule the east.
JB missing 2 free throws in clutch time, not like him.
JB 2fts and DWhite 1 tech ft were the difference. Not bad considering we were well below standard
GG though I’m impressed how good the Pistons are compared to there past seasons Cade must’ve been happy with the record and momentum.
Jaylen makes his ft were not here, it was evident he hitched his last 4 fts lol
Turnovers, pts in the paint, transition pts, and Derrick white sucking fat fucking balls are the reasons they lost
It’s all good honestly. Give us Tatum, we sweep them. They’re fully healthy
Cade played hurt bro.
One point game and lost on a great look, I’ll take it.
I take that result against the “1 seed” any day. Go next.
That’s tough if pistons are a fake 1 seed cause celts have lost 75% of their games this season to em
They’re not the 1 seed until the season’s over. How’d we handle the Knicks in the regular season last year?
Nice moral victory
I wouldn’t go that far, but I get what you mean. You definitely digest that loss and get better from it though. Losing by one possession on the road, lots of room for improvement.
Damn, I’ll take that JB shot every time.
Well, 0-2 when scale is on the sideline with a different announcing crew
Tuff
I feel like we NEVER make the last game winning shot. We used to be good in crunch time but never at last second shots
I just told my wife I feel Joe should be more creative about the last shot, instead of JB’s one man show. There was plenty of time.
Man that was a good shot
That was a terrible ATO play by Joe. Just nothing on it. No one else did shit.
Tough shot, close game. But goddamn JB missing those 2 FTs hurt, even tho he was clutch as shit to close the game.
If Dwhite played better this is an easy win oh well Pistons suck got lucky
Pistons are gonna be better in May than they are now. They are so young. They are so good defensively
Tobias Harris ain’t scoring 25 on us again loool
Thanks Derrick white for not showing up at all and getting destroyed by fucking Duncan Robinson without dribbling
Great fucking look - damn
🙁
That was a great look from JB
FUCJKKKKK
That bounce was tough. Good shot at least.
Well fck me
Fuck man , JB was close🤦🏻♂️
That loss was on Jaylen Brown, his missed two free throws
Ygbfkm
He did the score the teams last 6 points. Nobody else was shooting well. But sucks he missed both and missed the last shot
That shot was perfect. Wouldn’t have it any other. It was a great shot
You do not know basketball.
And you do not know math
Sybau
Boohoo
Man, that almost bounced in
If it didn’t catch that piece of backboard
fuckkkkkkkkk
how is jb still this bad at free throws
79% could be worse
8⁄10 is bad?
73% over your career as a sg isn’t great Bob
Still isn’t bad chicken little.
consistently shooting below league and position average isn’t good ricky
ok bobby
JB is not that guy. Need Tatum back.
You don’t know basketball.
you’d be saying the same shit if Tatum missed this shot. Fuck outta here
lol Tatum would’ve missed too
Would’ve been up by 5 with JT.
Sigh. Nice try.
I knew it
Fucking hell.
fuck, nice try jb
GG
How does Brown repeatedly make contested one hand off balance trick shots and then brick back to back free throws?
Let’s get a pick n roll Queta dunk pretty please
Gotta make those free throws ffs
I have faith in Joe. I think he’ll be able to cook up something creative for this play. He’s been saving something for a moment like this, I can feel it.
Draw up an ill advised 3
Please please please please
I want buffalo to shoot this.
Yes, 1-11 Derrick White.
jesus christ why do all close stressful games gotta be when it’s late and i’m tired.
let’s go celtics. feeling either a JB drive or a PP/Hauser 3 for the win!
This game would be in the bag if a certain Finals MVP could make his clutch FTs 🤬
You mean the guy with 30% of the team’s entire offense? Yeah, great take buddy
And over 33% of the team’s shots, so I would hope he has 30% of their offense
Before you get up my ass, I love him but he does this shit way too often and it PMtFO
You can tell Jaylen had a hitch in his last fts vs fluid earlier in the game. Big time fts always bother him it’s so evident
I mean we are competing with #1 in the east however this one ends it was a valiant effort
You know what, fuck it, let Derrick shoot it.
Jaylen Brown, can you give me one more day? I’m not asking for a week, I’m not asking for a month. Can you give me just one more day? ☝🏾
Queeta lost his shoe. Did he died?
LMAO
Here comes the 30 foot contested 3
Feeling a derrick or pritchard shot here jb decoy please
Regardless of the result of this game, it would be incredible to add a healthy Tatum to this team
Joe, draw up a 5 pick play and get Queta a free dunk or something.
Alright Joe, time to show us what you’re made of.
of course we dont have ato
Have to make the best out of this out of bounds play something to the rim
And JB just missed two clutch free throws, brutal
Oh man can we make a game winner one time
JB gets a chance at a game winner
Ik when JB missed that 1st ft the second was off too. Could be up 1 rn or at least tied
MVP Jaylen.
Man I’m worried Derrick is gonna get this shot
Just win this one.
Holy shit.
What a great game but stressful as fuck
Anybody but DWhite man
Hauser staring at the ball when all he had to do was grab it is just so buns
Get it to Jaylen or PP in the midrange, live with the results
don’t wanna hear any JB slander about missing a couple FTs when he’s the only one who showed up on the offensive end tonight while guarding Cade on the other end
He took 1⁄3 of our shots, no one else had a chance to get going
Joe is about to cook up some absolute dogshit gg
Confusion and a jacked 30 foot three
Like clockwork, a Celtics-Pistons game down to the wire
Man everyone on this team not named Jaylen brown scared to do anything
Pritchard turned down multiple threes, white is just shook because of his god awful game
Brown is being Superman out there
A shot to win it at the end. Can’t complain.
Rebounding killed us this game
Get JB the ball and live with the results
He’ll be doubled. Need to make the right play.
He has to take this shot I don’t care if they triple team him
Come on Joe. Put together a great ATO here.
Oh no
Wish he woulda made the free throws but jaylen has a chance to redeem himself on the last shot
Great, last possession will be OURS. THANK YOU THOMPSON, LET’S WIN THIS ONE.
Queta damn near doing the splits
As per norm tbh. That man is like one of those wavy things you see outside of car dealerships the way his body moves
It’s been a while since we’re in this position
I can’t watch this. But I can’t not watch this. I don’t know what to do.
Watch it backwards
Here comes the chuck a 3 when down 1.
MAN IM SCARED DO NOT FUCKING LET DERRICK WHITE SHOOT THIS JOE
Naah I don’t like this one bit 😭😂
Fuck, it comes down to this last shot.
….. 4 seconds left JB pls save us
You gotta make at least one of those friggin free throws Jaylen. I knew when he missed the first he was probably gonna miss the next one
GET A FUCKING STOP
Feed the MVP
[deleted]
so?
He’s carrying our offense, stfu
Okay relax
JB has to be better. Losing his man multiple times off ball giving detroit open looks.. missing free throws..
And the turnovers are back
I dont blame him so much for those.. he was getting fouled a fuck ton and they were not calling it.
Sixers fans absolutely sick seeing Harris make these 3s
Derrick white 1⁄11 Fg and 0/6 for threes is crazy dude.
He’s been awful offensively for two weeks now
It’s ridiculous. Some nights he shoots lights out. Unfortunately lately he hasn’t been able to throw a ball in the ocean standing on a boat.
PP on defense is not gonna work in the playoffs, multiple times this game where his size allowed his man to get free and we had to get into a scramble
Get Walsh in there he was locking up Cade with ease
Jaylen with the turnover at the line. Knew it was coming.
2 pt game and 2 missed FTs, into Pistons 3.
That’s a wrap boys.
UGHHHHH fucking Harris just hates us
what are the stats on JB missing clutch free throws? I swear he’s like sub 50% on FTs under 2 minutes in close games
58%
Is that legit? Honestly wouldn’t surprise me. It has to be mental because, as we’ve seen, he’ll hit crazy shots with insane body control in the clutch but seems hesitant while standing at the line
Bro I don’t understand Joe’s idea of having pp in over Walsh
Philly fans seething seeing Tobias doing this lmao
Almost like Philly had terrible coaches (Rivers, Nurse) who had no idea how to use Tobias.
Tobias won’t have a game like this in the playoffs lol too much over helping
ugh jb got lost there and hauser had to come over smh
Stop leaving him open
JB shoots 58% at the line in clutch time he’s been bad at his whole career idk what it is
Mental case
FFS man can’t miss both there….
Why no Simons? So much faster and a better scorer.
Rare game we have more ft than our opponent but double the turnovers
Perfect time to miss two from the line
FUCK
Shit man
JB is not good at clutch time FTs
Both free throws? ☹️
Why PP playing ?
Wait, is the Detroit stadium empty or is that guy yelling really loud?
He’s just really loud
Man the free throw shooting is so bad times I can’t fucking even. It’s never gonna change
Refs trying as hard as possible to keep this close
Love Jaylen but man, it is never easy when he goes to the line
I would throw Walsh in over PP right now
Robinson guarding Jaylen is certainly a decision
Queta can block shots but ironically he can’t protect the paint
insane we’re still choosing to close with Pritchard instead of Simons
nice patience baby
I am 100% confident that this team with JT on it would beat them soundly.
Duren complaining about jersey pulling 💀💀
Drop defense is so fucking annoying.
JB might be God’s favorite basketball player
We got more FT’s than pistons lol
fucking mind power to make that ft go in
