We are expecting them to keep building on that, but this team doesn't have enough talent to contend no matter how good the coaching is. I like this team and its direction, maximizing talent isn't the issue. Elite talent is.

The puppets who, forever, marginalize their inteligence for some know-it-all GM. It's funny how the same critics forever question the worst GMs in the league but their own.Smh. Danny screwed up big time. I never backed away from that and I'm glad few smart people around here agrees. Yea, draft Balls or Fultz (however tha **** his name is spelled), then what? What happens to IT and all others guys whose contracts are due?Reality is going to kick in soon enough for these people around here, if it hasn't already. 1st round bounce. 2nd at best.if you think banner 18 was sure fire you are stupid.

We're not winning a championship this year.
Too many games like this one is why Olynyk won't be back next year.

There's a bigger picture here.This might sound silly, but sometimes I wonder why teams play certain games. If back-to-backs are always a bad thing (and it seems they are), why bother playing them? Why can't professional athletes play effectively for two consecutive nights? If they can't do so, why does the league keep scheduling back-to-backs? Just seems silly to me, especially since it's a built-in excuse for every time Boston lays one of these eggs.I may be wrong but Im pretty sure that we are above average on second night of back to backs.

That could certainly be true.We have one very good player (IT), one good player (Al), and a bunch of role players, some of which are not very good. So yeah, we've been overachieving for a while.
Smart with a 21 point night on efficient shooting, of course along with stellar defense, too. Just more and more signs of development from this kid.EDIT: And as I say that, he makes a stellar defensive play on Griffin.
Besides Smart and Thomas, rest of #Celtics are 18-for-52 FG.
