I just hope they stop with the bad shooting is contagious problem......never seen anything like it where the bad shooting starts, the bad shot selection starts and keeps going......like hey I don't car we have missed 12 3s in a row just keep shooting and we will prove it to you we can make one.........

Absolutely embarrassing basketball from the Celtics.
Just been horrible playing since the all star break.

This is not even close to a championship team at this point.

Tatum won the joke of the year, the All Star MVP, and it would appear it has gone to his head along with his accelerated whining about fouls. His teammates need to clamp down on him with the whining. The refs are tired of it, as is everyone else. Other team gain strengthen with their late trades and now are moving forward unlike the Celtics.

It's. The. Coach.

Too often he refuses to play his best lineup against that night's specific opponent because he's afraid to upset someone. It's the regular season, Joe. That's a dream scenario to even have that luxury of not having to ride the same 5-6 guys.

again, overreaction by some of the posters here.....

stop acting like the Celtics are at the bottom of the the NBA, Because of 2 losses whereas the primary tenant hasn't lost in 3 months and is on a 10 game heater in a season NOBODY predicted....

this isn't Tatum, this isn't Brown, and the constant criticism almost makes me think this thread should be shuttered permanently.

so what if we blew a chance to overtake Milwaukee thanks to Philadelphia.... the team hasn't beaten the Knicks anyway.... so why would you expect them to in a Double OT Game w/o Brogdon....

Maine, btw goes 1-2 on their CA trip beating Ontario 120-108; Maine returns to the Expo Thursday night to host Brooklyn's affiliate, the Long Island Nets.

tonight @ CLE 7:30 NBCSB;

Not expecting RW III/Brogdon/Gallinari or Al to play whether due to injury/ load management since it is a B2B;

H-B Marcus Smart

CHRDANHUTCH, I hate to say I told you so, but RW III is put together like ribbon candy. He never reached the status of his play last season, and now he will be out, remember he is a slow healer, and when he finally gets the green light from the doctors he may say as he did earlier this season, "mentally, he isn't ready to play." I have been saying for a long time that Brad needed to find a replacement for him or at least an equilivant partner to fill in for him. Let's see what Brad can do. If it were me I would dump him because the team can't depend on him. As the team is having, hopefully, a temporary shitting of the bed, they can recover and get back to playing terrific ball without him until Brad comes up with solutions. That is just my opinion, always has been.

Go Celtics

no, they stated 7-10 games..... it's also load management see why Al typically isn't playing B2B.... there simply isn't an option there to replace RW III, WHICH YOU keep harping on....

They could have replaced RW for the past 2 yrs. He is injury prone, a slow healer, does not take care of his body and has mental issues, for me that is enough to have dumped him two yrs ago. He helped us lose to the Warriors. You keep posting facts I enjoy them.

There is an option in the off season and stop this from continuing year after year. So we may miss winning the championship again
They don't come that often and RW costs us. Let's not continue to debate this we know your position and everyone here knows mine. Later I am watching the game against Cleveland.

where exactly is Golden State, now.... battling to be a play in team..... and just lost to a team in the Lakers and just readded Steph Curry back into their mix.... Phoenix seems to be the consensus pick out west despite that Durant trade w/ Brooklyn C's likely are a top 6 team as it is constituted now.... Memphis is a question mark now between Morant's availability/legal status and Dillon Brooks being too over aggressive as he's now hit the Tech ceiling where if u go over 16 in a season you get a suspension for every one over 16, f it's not rescinded by the NBA.... I try mostly to follow what Brad and the franchises does.... rarely will I do actual league stuff if it's even relevant like what's happening either the Ime sidebar or this w/ Morant

Sorry I am a fan of the Celtics I don't follow the other teams. I usually don't care about other teams during the season's play.

Without two starters Tatum and Horford we are ahead at half time but not sure we can hold the lead as we have demonstrated lately.
