In the big picture, it would be better for us to lose this game. We clearly have an entitlement syndrome and a loss is the kick in the ass we need to wake us up.

i think we have a bit more of "played the most games of any team in the league, 7 in the last 10 days" syndrome myself.

If that's the problem I'd expect us to play better in the first half and run out of gas in the second. What I'm seeing is we expect teams to bow down to us because we're the defending champs until we fall behind.

I'm with Who, we need an energy guy off the bench. Doc, try Walker or Pruitt tonight.

If this is not a double-digit deficit at the start of the 4th then I'm confident we can get it done.

Even better.

That was definitely a foul on Carter, but it was after the buzzer.

I'm really losing my patience with Rondo... for someone that is constantly being complimented for a hunger to learn, he keeps making the same dumb mistakes.

  • Rondo doesn't believe in easy buckets...
Now I'm positive the Celts haven't been bringing the intensity. 3 straight games they coast 2Qtrs, and when they're down 15 they decide OK let's play now. They erased a 15 point lead with ease, it's just ridiculous how easy it seemed. I'm happy that the team has the ability to do that, but I'm a bit disappointed that they're choosing to go that rout on a nightly basis.

i hate the lack of a realiable back up big, davis is to small and slow here.

we need a guy for perk off the bench.

I have been saying this all season.Your are right.Tonight i have to let the starters off the hook though for the start.They got us off to a good start.The bench put them behind the eightball tonight.When Doc comes to the realization that he cant play a whole bench full at the same time then they will be better off.
