The bubble was bad enough now canned cheering in Boston Garden..
It seems like nobody is immunethe league is in a shambles.First the bubble and the long sequester and then the short preseason and two pre season games Losing Kemba gaining Teague and Trisain and playing a two man big starting rotation .As Brad is fiddeling with combinations. Grant.Williams seems a step to slow as players are beating him or turning the corner.
We miss Hayward obviously..The Theis Jason connection has been severed with Theis having his seal called.

Sadly, they are not, Rollie. We’re a borderline playoff team headed for a first-round exit. If that happens, we need to bring in Tony Bennett from Virginia (who’s actually won a championship in his career and will have respect among players by being a former NBA player himself), and Wyc needs to use his connections to bring in a AAA GM (allow Ainge to save face by retiring, otherwise fire him and he can go be MJ’s GM or something).

Our starting All-Star point guard is out and we are still incorporating three new rotation players into the mix. Not to mention Langford (a potential 9th guy) is out.

We are definitely better than a “borderline playoff” team. I would however agree that most fans were hoping—albeit not expecting—to see a bit more.

P.S. We already have two “AAA GMs” in Zarren and Austin Ainge

 They are. Its just that with shortened off season and preseason some are still not running at ful speed. I seriously doubt the bucks and nets are as bad as their record says.

Our team like they said, is also incorporating new players and has a star on the mend.

We bring in the 94 year old singer and Walter McCarty as an assistant and they can sing duets to the team during timeouts.  More effective than Lebron's Calm app.

These are all such bad attempts at making points. Oye.
