The team had expectations of getting out the East,whether or not YOU think they overachieved and played above there heads FACT is the team and mgmt stated there goals :yeshrug:
nikka then their managment is dumb. They do not have the right pieces. They were a #5 seed pretending to be 1. Anyone think otherwise dont know shyt about basketball.

Easy, first round loss (bron sweep) ,second round loss (hawks ). ECF home court (bron 4-1 almost sweep) not mention they were looking shaky as fukk against the bulls as a 1v8 seed before rondo got hurt. (Down 0-2)

So when he has another ecf home court loss on his record this year how many chances should this dude get for being a regular season over achiever?

This guy is currently 1-8 against LeBron teams and looks like he might be 2-12 in a week or so. That's the same as Casey.

He literally has a losing record in the playoffs.
Next year will probably be his best shot and I'm not sure he will make it to the finals then either.
All this but he got the completion for the protection and coaches in boston. He ain't going no where.

We’re holding it against Stevens that a 40 win Celtics team got swept by the Cavs? :heh: Or that they lost in 6 to Atlanta without home court and with their 2nd best player injured? :heh: Or that they made it to the ECF despite their #1 playing on a bum hip and being as the Coli called them, the worst #1 seed ever? :heh: Celtics are underdogs relying on guys that are first-time starters while the Raptors were a 60 win team led by All-NBA players that were favored to win and you can’t comprehend why the standards aren’t the same? :jbhmm:

Also, the Celtics have never lost a series as the favorite in the Stevens era, can Casey say the same? Oh that’s right, he can’t. It’s happened 3 times. Would you be caping for Stevens if the tables were turned?

Insert juelz gif.

No I said keep the same energy when next year he's put out the playoffs again in a weak east. Thibbs, vogel, Casey all the same.

I’m sure if the Celtics have the best record in their conference over a 5 year stretch but only make it to the ECF once while having 0 Finals appearances, Stevens will catch some flack :ehh:

And I expect you to be here caping for him :salute:

I think y’all aren’t recognizing two things.

1. Casey is a really good coach...until the playoffs where his deficiencies not only get magnified but put his team in poor positions to be successful.

2. Maybe the team is soft because of Casey. If you follow Casey as much as Raptors fans do you’ll know that he’s a turn the other cheek type of bruh—so that’s what the team does. And when he does have a certified goon on the squad he finds a way to downplay their personality or push them out of the lineup. Either way, teams tend to take on the personality of their coach, why would this team be any different?
