I'm pretty sure even if we lose this game The Celtics will still have the 2nd best record in the league.

McConnell is finally doing something in a game against us and Terry is having a rare awful game.  And people actually think this is the norm?  McConnell would AT BEST be our 5th guard.  He's basically Larkin getting more minutes.  Nothing more to see here.

What??

A rare awful game?

He shot 3-11 and 1-7 last game.  I call that AWFUL and that was JUST TWO DAYS ago!!

That play before the break was indicative of guys that just aren't used to playing with each other.  Larkin drives and hits Rozier on the cut... but Marcus Morris was cutting into the same space at the same time, which prevented what would have been an easy layup. 

No shortcut for fixing that.  Just need more practices and more reps together.

Upcoming west coast trip not looking so hot right now though. Just don't like they way they look. As CBS says, they are playing with zero force.

This team lacked energy and focus tonight right from the tip off. Weak down the bench, the only exception is Shane Larkin.

Yes.  It's still rare when it doesn't happen that often.  2-6 games out of the whole season qualifies as RARE.

Is there a reason why they all just stand there on offense? Do they not have any sort of plays to run? Their offense is so perplexing.

Dont laugh, but I dont want to face this team in first round without answer for a true center. They could give us fits like Bulls did last year.

lol man you have some very generous views of Rozier as a player.  If you aren't bringing anything to the table off the dribble or passing as a guard, you better be scoring, not having games were you are awful and on the season shoot below 40% from the field.  He has more poor games than that.

Larkin is having a really good night.

God I love Smart lol

I actually think he's had a great overall night outside of the turnovers.

only 1 assist and 4 TOs from Smart were game losing plays, but he just made a game winning one on that smash mouth defense there
