Celtics (12-16) at Pacers (21-5) Game #29 12/22

[esel1000]

Watching Jeff Green disappear for entire games and halves at a time is maddening.

It's truly amazing... almost makes you wonder if it would be worth just trading him for Asik. At least we'd have a real center who I'm guessing would play d the whole game (aka not fully disappear)

Green shows the ability to guard superstars, and have amazing offensive plays but he is so inconsistent... Not sure if Green is worth Asik or if I'm just frustrated at this point

This game should be proof that we are not a real playoff team. I so desperately want Ainge to commit to a direction. I personally want him to trade out of the playoffs and play to our strength and right now that is our number of draft picks. Can't stand this mediocrity

It will truly be a travesty if we win the titanic division... These last three games have proven that. Either get blown out or lose big leads.

Getting sick of Crawford.

I'm a bit worried that he's going to lose the trade value that he built up

Ever since he won player of the week, his performance has gone downhill.

Yea I mean from an entertainment stand point there has been some great games to watch but I want to witness another championship. No one expected the NY disasters so I
Understand we shouldn't even be in the playoffs but DA needs to do something before the trade deadline. We will be better when rondo comes back and even furthers our problems. I won't support losing and will always want to win but I will support putting out a bad team trying to win that just sucks hahaha

1. This team is very young and inconsistency will happen. They seem to go on 3-4 games losing streaks and then 3-4 games winning streaks. No need to despair during the losing streaks. They are going to happen.

2. This concept that player's trade value changes from game to game and week to week is fan fantasy basketball stuff and GMs in the NBA do not view things like that. Its nonsensical to think that a players value for trading changes game to game based on their performances. Sorry people, that's just not how it works.

game to game, sure, value doesn't change, but during the season of course it does. Crawford's trade value has certainly increased since the beginning of the season, and if he reverts to his selfish, boneheaded play his value will return back to preseason level.

It's funny to watch this team struggle against very good teams but destroy equally poor teams and the excitement level around here escalate.  Not criticim, because I'm just a s guilty.  But we are nothing more than a bench squad out there and that's including green, excluding sully, and KO gets a pass for being a rook.  Lets get rid of this dead weight and start the rebuild.  LOL, seems we were saying the same thing last year.  Oh the roller coaster.

[Celtics4ever]

We are definitely bottom feeders against a good team or a big one we are exposed.

[Vox_Populi]

If they sit Hibbert the whole game ...it would be close to a game .

lol predict a competitive game through the half followed by another third quarter collapse when Paul George gets going

You were correct as well.

[slamtheking]

just an ugly game.  no real positive takeaways from this game other than I'm positive we need much better players to even dream of contending

[cltc5]

3 years of this with Jeff Green up and down.  Ive seen enough

[coco]

Love Abby but I can care less about Buttler stuff

[slamtheking]

and the academy award for acting goes to --- Paul George

Jeff is what he is. I don't expect much from him anymore

[cltc5]

This should be an exciting playoffs matchup
