Celtics implode in Game 7

Published Thu, 20 Feb 2025 18:58:44 GMT

To paraphrase the late Dennis Green, the Celtics are who some observers thought they were.In the end, the Celts were a team that was far too reliant on the three-point shot to be championship caliber. They got away with a clang-fest (7-for-35 in threes) in their dramatic Game 6 win in Miami that was pulled out of the fire by a great Derrick White moment. But that’s all it was – a moment that just staved off elimination in Game 6 by a Miami Heat team that few people gave a chance against the more talented Celtics.In Monday’s massacre, however, the Celts got what they usually deserve when they shoot badly from three-point land. On the strength of 9-for-42 shooting on threes, the Celts fell to the Heat with a whimper, losing 103-84 in the mother of all buzzkills. The final score was charitable.Asked if his team relied too much on the three, coach Joe Mazzulla remained defiant to the end.“No,” said the coach flatly.There might be a few folks who’d debate the coach on t...

Jaylen Brown said that win meant nothing if they laid an egg Monday night on their home floor.Then, that’s exactly what happened.One of the rowdiest home crowds in TD Garden history came to celebrate the possibility of witnessing history, hoping to see the Celtics become the first NBA team to overcome an 0-3 series deficit and advance to the NBA Finals.Instead, they were history. Instead, boos followed these Celtics into a long, agonizing summer after a painful 103-84 loss to the Heat in Game 7 of the Eastern Conference Finals, one of the most disappointing defeats in Boston sports history.“We failed,” Brown said. “We let the whole city down.”They lear...
