I'd love to have POB active for this game. His height could be helpful.
Once you are labeled 'the best' you want to stay up there, and you can't do it by loafing around.

I know we're on the end of a back to back, but so are they....and we're the home team.

This is kind of scary to watch.  This is something this team never did last year, they came out for every game amped like it was their last.  Everyone seems like their playing 50%.  When there is a loose ball it seems like everyone has a someone else will get it attitude.

Maybe it's the whoopin we put on Detriot thats behind this?  Last year though we'd come out the next night and be the next team twice as bad.


.......it really looks like everyone went out last night and go good and sauced up for Perk's birthday haha.

This is just ugly to watch.  Everyone is playing tentatively, without energy, and completely out of sync.  Seems like after the beating we put on Detroit there's just no conference rival for the team to focus on.  On the plus side, we have a chance at redeeming ourselves in the 2nd half...Toronto should be up 20 but they're keeping us in the game.

Frustrating game to watch and I have to listen to Toronto announcers. Still Toronto is showing more energy, has better ball movement and is hitting their shots.

We need to hit our easy ones and defend O'Neal better. When did Jermaine invent a time machine that let him go back to 2002?

Could PP be hurting (recall that nasty shot PP took from Artest in pre-season)?

Most teams bring that energy against the defending champs. Problem is Celtics need to take that away and they have not done it--yet.

Meh...

Game is meh, C´s are meh, even Tommy´s attempts to hype our subs are meh tonight.
In the summer of 2017, I predicted this team would not win a championship for the next 10 years.

3 down, 7 to go.

Man, I'm almost hope so in a weird way.  Missing layups means you have no legs (or too much legs and that's clearly not the case).
Yup

They had an afternoon game yesterday and probably got to Boston earlier the the C's but I get the point.

Pierce hasn't been moving well tonight, or last night against Detroit. It's possible he's hurt.

Id offer the raps are one team against which the Celts pay for not having extra length.

I agree but thats at the bottom of the list for the reasons we are losing this game tonight.
