[SHAQATTACK]

I knew hey would lose this........they are playing with no heart,,  playing again sulking, without emotion, or care........


body language is all wrong again,   did somebody  tinkle on some bodies corn flakes

something seems wrong

[CelticConcourse]

6/7 seed! Yeah!!

[timobusa]

Teams with big decent 4's and 5's always kill us.
We are getting exposed out there.

I'll take a rain check on tomorrows game against Memphis.
Z-bo and Gasol will have a field day.

Hate to be a negative nancy but.
We're gonna lose that one for sure.

I'm calling a win, especially if Lee is out.

We always win the wrong games, and lose the wrong games...

Did anybody see how Rondo was hogging the ball to pad his stats in that game?...all the way from the rehab center! Were you guys watching how he was making his teammate worse by being a pure pointguard?  Did yall see how he was stealing rebounds from our bigs?...all the way from his couch at home!  Don't even get me started on that Miami's game and that Bobcat's game.  All Rondo's fault!  Why don't we trade him for Mario Chalmers?  Rondo's destroying the team!

horrible shooting.......open shots.....bricks.......bricks......bricks..........this game matchs pre  KG efforts.  .....

confidence is waning, 

Jet crash landed big time........awful shooting


when Crawford looks like one of the best celtics on the floor...something is wrong.

Sounds like a bet.
You give me 5 tp's if we lose.
I give you 5 tp's if we win.

Deal?

Ugly game... the positive is the Celtics look like they're still learning how to play together, and it shows on bad switches on D, missed rotations... but they can only get better.

If that's the positive, I would love to hear what you view as negative

[Clench123]

I can't count how many times I've been excited and disappointed about this team this season alone.  I'm done.  No matter how good we do from here on, it's not going to matter because we don't have our best player and Miami is on a whole 'nother level right now.  We ain't winning jack.  That is reality and I'm ready to face up to it.  I'm just going to sit back and enjoy KG and Paul Pierce's last run

yup......that's how I'm handling the demise of the Celtics,  just enjoy Pierce an KG while you can .

life after KG And Paul.   may not be the happiest of times...... possibly for many many years...

I blame Rondo

[Galeto]

I don't know what Pierce was doing out there tonight.  He was beyond passive until the fourth quarter.  After taking four shots in the first, he took one in the second and none in the third.  How does he do that?  He wasn't even looking to score.  He actually had his legs too and was able to finish inside, which is an unknown from game to game.  When you're struggling to score, part of the problem is that you're leading scorer doesn't even look to score.  Yeah, nice that he looks to score after they're down by double-digits with limited time remaining.

And what is it with Doc playing KG for fourth quarters?  Why sit him down for the entire third quarter from the 7:25 mark on.  Instead of trying to come back in the fourth quarter, which is an iffy proposition, try to come back in the third.  Every freaking quarter is important.  I don't understand why Doc plays him a ton in the third and fourth quarters and only a few in the other two.  It's ridiculous. 

Doc loves to buck the curve with how he uses KG.  For all his innovation, the guy refuses to see what starting Green next to KG and Pierce looks like.  What's the harm?  Heaven forbid that Bass has to come off the bench.
