Laker won't even make playoffs

Oh Man I'd LOOOOOOVE THAT if it happened, lol

A Dream Come true.

Mike brown's head would be on a pike.

I predict Mike Brown will be fired before the All-Star break.

Never understood why they didn't stay with the triangle offense and turn the team over to Brian Shaw. Mike Brown is a fool for trying the Princeton offense knowing Kobe will blow it up because he has to get his shots off and have the ball in his hands.

Seriously, what is it with people and overreacting?

The following teams have a better record than the Miami Heat at this point in time: Orlando, Milwaukee, New York, and San Antonio. How sustainable do you think this is? Only New York and San Antonio have even a chance of keeping up, but in the long run Miami is better than both. Orlando and Milwaukee probably won't make the playoffs.

Portland, Golden State, Clippers, Dallas, Houston, New Orleans, Chicago, and Indiana all have the same record as the Heat. Again, are we annointing the Warriors as the class of the West? No? Then it isn't time to be concerned about the Cs yet.

Honestly, I know this is just going to fall on deaf ears, because all people around here ever seem to do is overreact based on small sample sizes, but I figured I might as well point it out.

People freak out at things they don't understand and I defy anyone to explain the poor performances this Celtic team has turned in over the past 3 years.  To come out shaky against the Heat?  Okay.  To stink the joint out against the Bucks?  And then to basically win just one out of four quarters against a bad Wizards team?

You play with fire long enough, you get burned.  This team has been juggling bonfires for the last three years when it comes to consistent effort and execution on court.

perhaps this thread cab be joined with the yes or no Doc thread...

I agree this is overreacting but I also think all the morale victory almost beating the heat stuff is just as comical....we got lucky last season playing the hawks and 76ers in the playoffs and chris bosh missing the first 5 games in the heat series didnt hurt either

How is the premise of calling beating the Hawks and Sixers "luck" any more objective than someone lauding that we took the Heat to 7 but still lost? You just sound like a glass half-empty guy. Not that there's anything wrong with that, but you can't try to have it both ways and then call the glass half-full guy "comical".

Things will look up for this team once Bradley comes back but i really think Doc needs to shorten the rotation when that happens.

Something like...

Rondo (36)          Terry ( 8 )             Bradley (4)
Bradley (22)         Terry (16)           Lee (10)
Pierce (33)            Green (15)
Bass (28)              Green (10)         Wilcox (10)
Garnett (30)          Martin (13)         Wilcox (5)

I expect the Celtics to probably cut Joseph or Collins (probably Collins) and sign a servicable defensive big like Kenyon Martin. They really need it. Courtney Lee hardly deserves to be in the rotation but whatever. I also like Wilcox over Sullinger.

BYE!  Don't let the door hit your rear when your leaving....

I've seen enough, over the last two years, to know I loathe Bass's defensive game. When he comes in, the layup/dunkfest begins.

I've seen enough, over the last two years, to know I loathe Bass's defensive game. When he comes in, the layup/dunkfest begins.

He is a chronic over-hedger.

When he hedges on help D he ends up about 4 feet outside the 3 point line while his man is inside the key.

The only guy I've seen who is worse is Ryan Hollins.
