This dude is an absolute sociopath to have kept Tatum/Brown out for as long as he did against the Raptors bench when they clearly ceded the game on top of issuing a coach’s challenge while the Celtics were up by over 20 minutes with 4 minutes to go.

The challenge was successful, in case you were wondering.

    Darko puts up more fight in that confrontation than the game itself.

    You pulled your starters at the start of the 4th, that is basically “giving up” the game with still 12 mins to go.

    Bitching about a successful challenge under 3 mins and pulling your starters, that’s a loser’s mentality for a coach, real shit.

    The raptors players were also trying to inbound the ball as fast as possible because they knew it was the wrong call, which is what gave it away to mazzulla. I think it’s fine to challenge that. I hate the “unwritten rule” shit

    Coaching jobs in the NBA aren’t exactly the most secure positions. Wouldn’t be a good look if he just checked out during the game and stopped doing his job, so I don’t mind the challenge. But leaving your stars in and risking injury this early In the season over a blowout game is stupid as hell

    Why are you making this thread, again? Do you want players and coaches to compete for 48 minutes or not?
