There's a lot of blame to be spread around to almost everyone on this team. IMO, Horford and Morris were the only ones who didn't under-perform. For me, the three individuals who were given, by far, the most responsibility for the team's success, were Ainge, Stevens and Irving. All three failed miserably, for numerous reasons documented on this forum. Many posters are scapegoating and placing an inordinate amount of blame on Rozier and Haywood. As far as injuries go, this team, overall, was healthier than the 17/18 squad. And we didn't lose our best player to injury like the Pacers did. If Olidipo doesn't get hurt, we most likely would have been the fifth seed and being the road team, could have been looking at a first round exit. If we had reached the ECF or the championship finals, who would have garnered the most credit ? The answer is obvious. Ainge, Stevens and Irving merit most of the blame.
Irving deserves little blame.
Only thing you can actually fault him for is not being a great leader. Nothing else holds any merit at all
