Grizzlies (19-9) at Celtics (14-16) 1/2

[edwardjkasche]

I'm sick and tired of everyone's excuses.

Nothing to be done about a lot of these shots they're making.

... and the like.

When you give people the confidence and the space to make shots THEY MAKE SHOTS!!!  They're paid to make shots.

The Celtics may be getting a hand up on opponents' shots, but they've already allowed the other team to be completely at ease in their environment.  The other team is confident they're going to make their shots because the Celtics are slow and lazy.

I'm disgusted by this team and I'm tired of fans (and Doc!) making lame excuses.  This team is losing because they're lazy and complacent.  This is a team of talented individuals playing poorly as a team.  They're an awful team.  Something needs to change.

The guy that said that Bird would have decked his teammate by now is right... EXCEPT who on Bird's teams would have deserved it?  Those guys played hard back then.  To the end.

What an embarrassment

[Who]

Ohhh, haha, go Rondo! Hitting the offensive glass!

[Chief]

Who are the Grizzlies playing? Looks like the Washington Generals.

Great defensive roatation by Terry and Lee on that play - between the two of them they took away 3-4 shots in one possession, while Terry took away two shots on his own.

Need to see more of that!

[Who]

Ah, that triple by Conley was a back-breaker. 16 point deficit.

[lightspeed5]

mike conley is making everything he shoots. Everything he is shooting is 3's

[YouCantHandleTheTruth!]

We need to seriously rebuild. KG is done, Pierce is alone, Rondo is far, far away. Danny trade whoevere you have to trade and get Cousins, or ask for Irving.. just do something!

[crimson_stallion]

RONDO!!!

[kozlodoev]

Same plaguing issues with or without Bradley, this team is going nowhere without acquiring another big man. And no, not just any 7'0 scrub body.

we tried telling people AB would not make the difference. we need a big man who can play D and score and rebound.

Exactly...I'd traded what ever it took to bring in Cousins

another scrub center an't gonna help

We're not getting Cousins. Can we move on already?

[Change]

I'm glad for Tony Allen. He got quite a bit of abuse on these very pages when he was here.  From Sal-mon to constant references to his low IQ and impulsivity on the court.  I'd like to have him on the c's but he would not be turning this team around.

We are outclassed nightly nowadays.

Yeah, it's nice to see Tony Allen doing well in Memphis. He deserves it.

Gotta love the effort, energy and enthusiasm he plays with.

TP to both. Danny Ainge lowball offer was the best thing to happen to Tony Allen. He has since established himself in the league; otherwise he would've been buried in Doc's bench like usually was. Since then Tony earned a starting job, made a name for himself as defensive stopper, and even made all nba 1st defensive team.

What an embarrassment

this has been brutal

[Kiorrik]

Man, we look like the Washi... oh wait.

So anyway.

[Chief]

Doc has lost this team.

[Roy H.]

... or ask for Irving..

I think we could offer Rondo + Bradley + Sully + #1 and the Cavs would still turn us down.
