I have never in my life been so disappointed in a team I rooted for - in any sport at any level.
Glad this season has come to an end. If the same team is back next year I may boycot nba basketball.

Congrats to the Bucks. I'll be rooting for them in the ECF, and probably all the way.

I've certainly rooted for worse teams, but I have to agree that this team is the most disappointing. Severely underachieved, and worse, under-competed.

Down 23 with 8:32 to play. We didn't lose this series because of the refs, or because of bad D. We lost because our offense was absolutely terrible, starting with Kyrie and on down the list - with few exceptions. The Bucks are a very good defensive team that plays hard, but missed a ton of wide open shots, from 3's to layups. Pretty much a team-wide choke, with the possible exception of Morris. Second year in a row we're eliminated because we couldn't hit the broad side of a barn. The offense which Kyrie and Gordon were supposed to help out cost us this series. The refs only hurt us in Game 3, overall it wasn't a badly officiated series by NBA standards. This is 90% on Kyrie for bringing all of the bullshit LeFlop style of "leadership" drama and totally screwing up this team. I am only partially giving Gordon a pass because of the injury, no passes next season. Speaking of people not worth their contract, Al still falls in that category at this age, glad he only has one year left, would love for him to opt out and take a discount as I still want him on the team but not at that price tag. The only way we keep Rozier is if Kyrie is gone, as frustrating as Morris is we need some guys with attitude and he was the only guy in this series that gave his all and played smart for the most part so I would like to resign him. Speaking of Smart he is still a net negative and is grossly overrated by Celtic fans because he is still offensively retarded, he needs to be part of a trade for a second star if we keep Kyrie. His one or two hustle plays that everyone gushes about are not enough to make up for his pathetic shooting. Everyone else is either under contract or is irrelevant right now as far as the big picture goes. As for the Bucks, I will be shocked if they don't win it all this year with home court advantage. They are what we thought we would be this year and give them credit and I do hope they win it.

I think this is the most disappointing team for me too as it comes to underachieving. Being a Royals, 49ers, and Celtic fan (originally from Nebraska and we don't have jack for professional teams there..lol) this year took years off of my life following them.

Congratulations to the Bucks! They earned it. As a BOS Celtics fan, it was really hard to watch tonight, which mired similar games in the series, sans game [HASH]1.
