I like Golden State, they are easily my second favorite team. However, they are facing my favorite team and the distance between second and first on that list is huge.
So for the first time this year I will not be enjoying watching Golden State do what they do. This is a winnable game for Boston, but they absolutely have to get into the paint. If they let the Warriors own the paint, it will be another blowout.

I think the Warriors are becoming my second favourite team in the NBA too.
I have really enjoyed the way the way they play.

The Warriors is my 2nd favorite team. It's tough for me to them play each other.
I'm hoping that I'll be wrong about this, but David Lee is going to abuse our forwards tonight, and I don't like it.

I am worried about Carl Landry. I think he'll get a lot of joy against the non-KG big man defenders. His shot-creation out of the post is going to be tough for them to handle.
I think David Lee will be dominant whenever Garnett sits. I am happy with that defensive matchup whenever Garnett is there to defend D.Lee though. I think KG can slow David Lee down. I think Garnett's length and mobility will bother D.Lee.
6-0 Jason Terry closing out on a 6-7 Klay Thompson is not a pretty thought
Terry's lack of size and inability to close out shooters is one of the main reasons Boston's three point defense has been so much worse this year.
I hate when terry is in the game but hes not shooting. If terry is in the game he NEEDS to shoot the ball. Its what we have him for. If hes not shooting or not shooting well then there's absolutely no reason to have him in the game over Lee.
Solid bench with Biedrins, Jack and Landry. Not liking the smell of this one.

Jack has been killing teams off the bench lately, Terry is going to get torched.
Yeah, that was awesome Jack is a tough no BS dudeSolid bench with Biedrins, Jack and Landry. Not liking the smell of this one.

There will always be a soft spot in my heart for JJack.
He was one of the few NBA players who had the stones to speak up and call Judas' move a punk move.
Rajon Rondo (bruised right hip) will not play in Saturday's game vs. the Warriors.
This comes as a shock since we'd heard nothing about a hip injury, and Rondo routinely plays through minor injuries. Leandro Barbosa is absent for tonight's game, which leaves Jason Terry, Courtney Lee and Paul Pierce to do most of the PG duties.

Ouch!!! We're pretty much screwed tonight then!
Good opportunity for Jason Terry to show what he can do with more ball-handling responsibilities. Hopefully, he'll give Doc a good showing and maybe help Doc reconsider his role offensively.

So Doc will have to use Courtney Lee as the backup PG
Watch out for Draymond Green tonight, he's a smart, tough player.He could see a lot of minutes at SF tonight when Boston go big on the wing with Pierce and Green.
i'd go with Tommy's idea, put Pierce in the backcourt tonight. Have Lee and Pierce as guards, and Jeff Green at SF.

I don't think Doc will have any choice but to go with that combination for parts of this game.i'd go with Tommy's idea, put Pierce in the backcourt tonight. Have Lee and Pierce as guards, and Jeff Green at SF.

Our defense gives up a lot of uncontested shots, especially dunks.

Ridiculous. 270 seconds and KG sits. Moronic.also fits the coach description well.
The Warriors are good...Yeah, they are playing very well offensively. Pretty good defensively too.
The Warriors are good...

Yes they are. They have bigs that move well and wings that can get any shot they want.
How many time do opposing players get free lanes to the hoop? Every night.
With all the rest KG gets during games plus the rest he'll get when the Celtics miss the playoffs, he'll be doubly good next season. Doc is brilliant.
Looking forward to this.
Everybody criticises Terry's defense and raves about Lee's defense - IMHO both are unjustified.
So far Thompson (defended by Lee) has 4 points in 6 minutes, while Curry (defended by Terry) is scoreless in 6 minutes.
Let see if this trend continues.
How many time do opposing players get free lanes to the hoop? Every night.
I've been saying this since last season. The paint is like a big free space for opposing teams.

Jarrett Jack has a terrific body. He really put in a lot of work building up his strength / bulk to take advantage of his frame.
It's very impressive how solid Jack looks next to a big small forward like Jeff Green when fighting for that offensive rebound.
I love big guards.
Sullinger on the post!!! I love it!!

I give up. Some people will just never allow anything except that it is Doc's fault this team is average at best. Some basketball IQ makes it pretty clear the problem is not Doc.
KG had to be talked into returning this year and the minutes are in large part his idea. Doc is not mishandling the situation, he is working other people who need to step up. If he grinds KG all night and KG gets hurt (not an unlikely scenario at his age) then what? Doc is stupid for overworking KG. There is a reason Ainge says he would like no other coach but Doc - the man is a great coach and any of his players will tell you that. Look at the real problems, don't just blame the coach because you don't like what is happening on the court. Doc - and I admit this is just a guess - did not tell Pierce to throw up an airball three.

I find it very strange. I have only ever really seen it done with those 15-20 minute a night type starters. Especially for clubs bringing on a Manu Ginobili type in that guy's place.
But for a player of Garnett's ability? And with alternative bigs like Bass, Sully, Wilcox and Collins? I find that very strange.
Still, it worked well for Boston last year. KG played very well in the playoffs. So I am reluctant to criticize ... but I do find it very odd.

Personally I would rather have KG playing low minutes per quarter for now than no KG at all.
Maybe it won't work again. Maybe if the Celtics make the postseason, KG won't come on like a 25 year old again...but I won't bet against KG...yet.

Really, that's what you're going on? You're guessing that KG would implore Doc. Actually, how do you know he hasn't and Doc declined?
2 points in 6 minutes.
2.

please get him more involved Doc!

I don't know that anymore than you know he has. I am speculating, which is a common blog activity. KG is a fighter and I simply do not believe with the Celtics struggling he would just placidly sit on the bench like a puppy cause "Doc told me to." I also do not believe Doc would insist on it without KG's acceptance. That three year deal was specialized - KG's words - to allow him to return.
We are both speculating on what goes on between Doc and KG. I would not be surprised if either of us are wrong...ok I would be a little surprised if I am only because of KG's character. But if he is complaining to Doc, asking to play and being denied, then I will agree that Doc is an idiot. Seems highly unlikely to me that conversation is happening.

Sully posts up, players pass him the ball (not Pierce), and the Celtics get easy baskets. It's a simple game.
People, take notice. Courtney Lee is playing very well. He and Sullinger are keeping us in this game.

... DocLoving sully right now, Sullinger needs more minutes NOW!!!
please get him more involved Doc!
hope we can keep sully. trade green, bass and lee
Sully posts up, players pass him the ball (not Pierce), and the Celtics get easy baskets. It's a simple game.
It was what i have been clamoring for., WHat a novel concept right?

15 points at halftime is far from insurmountable.
this ballgame is over in reality. we are not coming back to win jack. this trip has been an epic failure on all levels.
I know that 15 points with more than a half to go is totally doable, but lately that seems like too much for this team to overcome.
KG is not Kobe. He doesn't complain about coaches. He respects Doc and follows along. The man was like Iverson in his prime: he almost never left games. From what I can infer, he loves to play. You think he wants to sit after playing the first 4.5 minutes?
No, sorry, I did not mean to imply KG would Kobe to the media. He definitely would not. But he would tell Doc he wants to play and he would not look so calm when he comes off the court. Doc, I believe 100%, would let KG play if KG demanded to play. The only way I see KG losing that argument is if he is injured. But if KG ran off the court and said to Doc, "Coach, Im feeling it tonight, let me play" I guarantee Doc would get him back in quickly.
Really, that's what you're going on? You're guessing that KG would implore Doc. Actually, how do you know he hasn't and Doc declined?
I don't know that anymore than you know he has. I am speculating, which is a common blog activity. KG is a fighter and I simply do not believe with the Celtics struggling he would just placidly sit on the bench like a puppy cause "Doc told me to." I also do not believe Doc would insist on it without KG's acceptance. That three year deal was specialized - KG's words - to allow him to return.
We are both speculating on what goes on between Doc and KG. I would not be surprised if either of us are wrong...ok I would be a little surprised if I am only because of KG's character. But if he is complaining to Doc, asking to play and being denied, then I will agree that Doc is an idiot. Seems highly unlikely to me that conversation is happening.
Whatever dude. You're making too assumptions. Yes, that's a blog activity but you're treating it like it's fact. You answered criticism about KG's minute pattern with ridiculous assertions that you knew that KG had to devise part of it with no foolproof evidence. Whatever.

Fine. Fair. But can Lee get some love for once?
I love jump shots

Sorry I upset you. I didn't know I need to have a notary public involved in my posts. I said, pretty clearly, it was speculation. I did not ever claim I had some inside scoop. It was on public airwaves. You might want to learn the art of conversation instead of the art of flaming anyone who has a different thought than you.
I don't think I have ever seen a team allow more open shots.
Pierce is 1/11...............
Question is has Danny seen enough? If Philly gets it together this team doesn't make playoffs?!
Harrison Barnes does not play like a rookie. Much more discipline than I expected him to have. Especially as a defender / rebounder but also offensively.

MVP! MVP! MVP!
oh now glenn puts in kris joseph with 3 seconds left. SMH
Pierce is 1/11...............
32% as a team - and Cliff Paul has more assists than our team does thus far. :(
When team after team after team hits everything they put up, there is a reason beyond they are lucky or on fire.

Do you guys remember when we were good? Like 2 seasons ago when we went on that 14 game winning streak at the beginning of the season? Seems like so long ago...Even earlier this season. They were playing much better than this.

This period is the worst they have played all year.
I like Golden State, they are easily my second favorite team. However, they are facing my favorite team and the distance between second and first on that list is huge.
So for the first time this year I will not be enjoying watching Golden State do what they do. This is a winnable game for Boston, but they absolutely have to get into the paint. If they let the Warriors own the paint, it will be another blowout.
They should go to Sullinger in the post a lot more in the 2nd half, play inside out offense and slow the game down.no way doc's abandoning his favorite iso plays for effective plays. change is not in his arsenal.
I love pierce. Not tonight though.
I like passing Pierce not ball hog Pierce.

The Warriors own the paint and the three point line and the result is clearly evident on the scoreboard.
This stretch of games. This has been a really awful run of games for Boston.Do you guys remember when we were good?

This period is the worst they have played all year.
By period do you mean this quarter or this stretch of games?
No performances from Pierce, Garnett or Terry. No chance of winning.
Already short-handed without Rondo, Bradley, Barbosa and Wilcox. No chance of winning.
pierce and green are combined 2 for 18. this is a petrid shooting game by the celtics. :(they are playing good defense on us that's why, still we arent helping our case no movement, not aggressive, look spent with no confidence. Now on the other hand they are hitting everything because our defense is DISGUSTING, bottom line. We can't defend for squat.
their defense has been better than the score i thought. GS is making its shots, so i give them credit.
at this stage, i just dont see the celtics as a strong team.
but there is still a half left. go celtics! ;D
They should go to Sullinger in the post a lot more in the 2nd half, play inside out offense and slow the game down.no way doc's abandoning his favorite iso plays for effective plays. change is not in his arsenal.
I think this whole team ...minus SULLY and joseph needs to go to the D-LEAGUE INCLUDING GLENN RIVERS.i totally agree!!!!
Put Sully and Joseph on the Red Claws and they could best the Celtics.

Credit and major props to Mark Jackson and Vinny Del Negro. Two coaches whose heads were clearly on the chopping block last year - but two outstanding coaches this year, and proving all the naysayers wrong.
On the (sort of) brightside, there isn't much competition for that 8th seed.
So they should be pretty safe for a playoff appearance even if this rut carries on for awhile.
I have a question for you guys :
Is Golden State a legit team?
Could they make noise in the playoffs?

I never said I knew what he was thinking. I was SPECULATING as I said. Give it and me a rest pal. This blog is turning into garbage because you cannot disagree without being tanked. For the record:
1. I think Doc is a great coach
2. I think KG is in agreement with the minutes he plays
3. I think Ainge knows he needs to do something and is working on it.
4. I think our bench is hardly great, but getting them in the game is smart, not dumb.
Please make a note of the word "think" in each of those statement. Nowhere do I claim insider knowledge or some NBA-savant insight. I am a Celtics fan and I know a lot about this game and some of these players. You can disagree with me - and I welcome it - since that is why we are on this blog to begin with.

dats my thing ima huge Pierce fan but dude was slam forcin it in da 1st half garbage shot selectionI love pierce. Not tonight though.
I like passing Pierce not ball hog Pierce.
Agreed. I was expecting Paul to rack up some assists with Rondo out. Instead, he's been forcing shots at a miserable clip. Hopefully he gets it come second half.
I have a question for you guys :
Is Golden State a legit team?
Could they make noise in the playoffs?

jeff green looks like hes ready to turn it on in the second half. nice rebound and putback showing the heart and grit danny sought when he signed him

You must not have been reading my posts over the last 7 years. ;)
Yeah, but that's it. There is only one team. Everyone else is pretty much ruled out of the playoff race in the East.On the (sort of) brightside, there isn't much competition for that 8th seed.Philly is a game back
So they should be pretty safe for a playoff appearance even if this rut carries on for awhile.
Looking forward to this.
Everybody criticises Terry's defense and raves about Lee's defense - IMHO both are unjustified.
So far Thompson (defended by Lee) has 4 points in 6 minutes, while Curry (defended by Terry) is scoreless in 6 minutes.
Let see if this trend continues.
im not mad at him Green aint doing nothing. Doc won't go to Sully. KG barely even plays. The Jet can't get a shot off and looks 50 years old.dats my thing ima huge Pierce fan but dude was slam forcin it in da 1st half garbage shot selectionI love pierce. Not tonight though.

break it up guys. too many quote boxes and too little civility. let's enjoy the game....if that is possible. ;)
jeff green looks like hes ready to turn it on in the second half. nice rebound and putback showing the heart and grit danny sought when he signed him
He's always ready to turn it on. I will give him credit for the boards tonight, but he has missed nearly very shot.
hes a scorer not even carmelo or durant makes every shot
I am ready to dump Jason Terry.I agree its very frustrating vet min guys are playing better than Terry...Barnes, Nate Robinson
Just get rid of him. Get him off the team. They are better off playing Barbosa ahead of Terry if this is all Boston is going to get out of Terry. So just get rid of him. It didn't work out.
And now Ezeli steals it from Jason Terry!
Garnett is jawing at Terry
And now Ezeli steals it from Jason Terry!
Stevie Wonder could pick Pierce and Terry's pockets ::)

Good lord pierce is awful tonight.I don't know why he is still on the court.
Green 1st off the bench, not Sully.
Doc Rivers is terrible!!!!

hes fourth best on this team and more valuable than most of the warriors players. i trust danny not to make a stupid decision to value him more than curry if he sucks
Thats the difference between Pop who I love and Doc who frustrates the hell out of me sometimes. Pop would have benched nearly the entire starting unit.Good lord pierce is awful tonight.I don't know why he is still on the court.
The team needs some energy. Go to your bench and see if anyone else can give it to you because Pierce sure as hell isn't doing it.
Green 1st off the bench, not Sully.
Doc Rivers is terrible!!!!
And now Bass!!!
I don't get it. Is 10 and 4 in the first half not good enough?
Doc needs to learn when to sit people's asses down
And then Pierce scores 5 quick points ... 13 point game.
They are not that far away. Pretty incredible given how badly they have played.
It is a talent issue with the Celtics. This is on Danny not Doc.

Both Paul and terry getting humiliated tonight. Feels like they've had their shots blocked a total of ten times tonight.

Via NBA.com, Pierce blocked twice, Terry thrice.
Worst game ever.

They deserve equal blame.
Both Paul and terry getting humiliated tonight. Feels like they've had their shots blocked a total of ten times tonight.And another one.
I hate Jeff Green at the 4. And as long as he is on the team and Doc is the coach, we will continue to see it.
sit paul and terryYeah, that is my favourite lineup right now too.
put in KG,Sully,Green,Joseph,and Lee.
Nice one dribble pull up jumper from Bass over Landry.And then a blocked shot on Curry's drive leading to a fastbreak layup for Green.
It is a talent issue with the Celtics. This is on Danny not Doc.

What about Pierce and Green and Terry?
got a game tomorrow wrap dis up starters aint got da legs tonight man smh

14 point game. Within striking distance. Oh, almost another turnover, Terry can't save it. Playing with some energy now.

Jeff Green shouldn't be a member of this team.
Terry has regressed. I guess that's his own fault, or maybe age?
Doc needs to learn when to sit people's asses down
Doc cannot sit the whole team down. We need five green unis out there. Once again Poor Talent is killing our dreams
Bless their green hearts they are still working hard.
idk all of their jumpers are flat thogot a game tomorrow wrap dis up starters aint got da legs tonight man smh
The question is, why don't they have the legs? They've been off 3 of the last 5 days.

if the celtics get the lead down to less than 10 by the end of the 3rd, they will be within barking distance. a strong finish could do it.
Lee, do you see Sully on the block?
seriously questioning docs decision making right now.
Lee, do you see Sully on the block?
There you go. You passed it to him, the defense sunk, and he passed it back to you for an easy jumper.
a carne asada burrito

watching my team battle back
im livin the American Dream
*sippin*
No team in the league outside the Bobcats and Wizards fear the Celtics.
Get Sully the ball!!!
start of 4th sully will sit and pp will be coming in for more iso delight
seriously questioning docs decision making right now.
They went on a 14-3 run!

The question is, why don't they have the legs? They've been off 3 of the last 5 days.
To all the haters from earlier: Lee has 16pts on 50% shooting.
And we are within 9.

Pierce is trying to be a hero again. He does this alot when he goes back home to Cali.

Almost like the Warriors are toying with us the way the Clippers did the other night.
This is really bad basketball.. The C's really need to make a move. We need to get Cousins and hope Avery is healthy and ready to jump in and start!

Latey ...all a hero is to Pierce is a Sandwich
I am hoping Courtney Lee will be coming back in shortly.
I liked the plays he was making defensively. They don't look as active defensively since he sat down.

Uh... these last two quarters have been good basketball for us.

dafuq jeff green
Sully I'm sorry. You work hard to get position and they throw it to Green for a brick or turnover.
dafuq jeff green
replay shows it was a clear foul on that last shot by Green, no call

why the green hate. hes a much more valuable and potential star than sully. he will lead the celtics back just watch. he did against utah earlier this year

Now 18. >:(
I'm sure it was that they just ran out of gas after all the work they did to slice the deficit from 19 to 9. ::)
Sullinger should be out new captaindoc will oust you in this forum if this happens.
Excuse for a loss tomorrow will be tired legs from back to back.
They had it down to 9 points a couple of times in the fourth. Well within striking distance.18 point game ... game over
been over since the 1st half. this team was not getting it done

Good offense by David Lee attacking Sully. Looks like he can get anywhere he wants against Sully.

They wouldn't have deserved to win but they could have stolen it.
i am SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO tired of watching our opponents shoot right around 50% - give or take - game after game. remember when we use to stifle our opponents to the tune of 40% shooting games.
our defense has been so watered down by the continuous acquisitions of mediocre defenders. it's become almost comical every time we get one of these marginal defensive players to read how the influence of KG and Doc and even Pierce will turn these guys into solid defenders.
there comes a tipping point where the pure volume of poor defenders cannot be overcome by a few great defenders.
are we watching the same jeff green this season? he stinks all year or maybe your watching the video game version of jeff.Sully I'm sorry. You work hard to get position and they throw it to Green for a brick or turnover.
why the green hate. hes a much more valuable and potential star than sully. he will lead the celtics back just watch. he did against utah earlier this year

its just one game. jeff still has the most offensive potential on this team. we need to run more good plays and have the offense more tailored to his style for him to get his confidence back.

Come on. It has nothing to do with bad defense. Teams always on fire when they play us. ::)
I don't know why Garnett, Pierce and Terry were on the court together in the most crucial stretch of the game after they had played throughout the contest.
The team was finally playing some energy and effort. Play the guys that are working for you.
Jeff Green MUST go

why? i agree his defense has been poor but his offensive potential is something we absolutely NEED on this team that is starving for offense.

Guys not hitting open shots = Doc's fault
Defense lazy = Doc's fault
Everything = Doc's fault.
I do not know what I am missing, but this roster of guys are not executing like past rosters of guys. Doc is frustrated - like us - and is working with the players he has. If he had put in the bench like many of you wanted and we still got smeared like this, you would jump on him for that. "How can you sit Pierce? KG? Terry?"
If Ainge makes a move, gets rid of some dead weight and brings in some new blood and the Celtics turn this thing around, does Doc get any credit for that? Probably not - it will be in spite of him I bet.
I understand the frustration, but this is so clearly not a coaching issue this season. Take a look at Doc's face sometime after one of those jumpers we all hate. He wouldnt argue with you.
The sad fact is, the Celtics get themselves into a mess in games, down way too many, and then they just cannot catch up. Few teams - if any - could.
Cousins...trouble and all...is welcome.

??? if they are missing wide open looks no that is not docs fault. but are we attacking this game like we did the last two? will we post up sully every game going forward now? where was that earlier? Will we stop using the RA screens much of the time on JET? there is plenty doc is responsible for. along with players also.

Green is a talented player. People around here just overreact to loses and chose scapegoats with no logical reason. Terry and Pierce shot about 10% tonight and turned the ball over a lot and no one is blaming them for the loss. Go figure.
