I'm tired of reading excuses.  This team has a problem.  One of those problems is Jaylen's attitude.

Please, that is an imaginary issue.

Morris playing for a contract, Terry playing for a contract, Horford aging and not being able to man the center position, Hayward being garbage and baynes being out are all FAR FAR larger issues than Jaylen getting p---ed in a time out.

Let me get this straight the C's lose an away game on the second night if a back to back against a playoff team and the C's need a team meeting? The team lost a game that most unbiased observers expect to be a tough game to win and the sky is falling?

Last night was a classic "road game the evening after a big win at home."

I'm not gonna freak out about it.

Also, it really felt like everything Miami tossed up went in. Like Derrick Jones banking a half court shot? Back breaking lucky play. Winslow looking like Ray Allen out there? OK.

If the team needs another meeting, then we might as well quit now.  Team meetings are for losing teams.

We definitely do not need another meeting. Is the sky going to be falling every time we lose a game? Back to back nights from home to the road and we lost in Miami. Big Deal. This month has been great so far. I am sure not going to be worrying after last night just as I have not been that worried all year long.

Hayward has an awesome week and one bad game and suddenly he sucks and needs to be traded again. Brown and Morris has a little tiff and suddenly Brown is an imaginary problem now. Teammates fight with each other, this is nothing new and surely no big deal.

Every loss does not define a team and every win does not either. In the end, we need to win more games then the team we play to move on in the postseason. We are 25-16 on pace for over 50 wins as we work into a more consistent rhythm. We are surely in a better place then we were in the first month of the season.  The sky is surely not falling right now.

Heat also beat the Bucks and the Nuggets.
We are still #2 in Net rating. 
Cant win them all.

We won several games in a row and laid an egg the last game, and one wakes up to this "Sky is falling" mentality.

Horford and our bench played horribly, we were beat at our own game, I liked us when we played more physical and we are too finesse last night.  But I think it is too early for another team meeting.   It is a long season.

Except why are you laying an egg against the lowly heat?

On the back end of a home/away back to back?

Yeah, it's overreaction.

This team isn’t on the same page. Young guys looking for that first big contract and vets looking to win a championship. The biggest obstacle to getting to the Finals is the locker room. #WETOODEEP legitimately

Loss to Miami was disappointing, but not time to panic (again). Miami played a heckuva game last night.

Let's right the ship with a win in Orlando, and exhale!!

the heat are a playoff team they're not the Cavs.

Only because it's the Eastern Conference and you HAVE to have 8 teams in the playoffs. They came into last night 1 game below .500 overall and 3 games below .500 at home.

Horford is not a center, Hayward has been playing better and the team has been doing fine without Baynes (including winning 7 out of their last 10 games)  So........

And just because a guy is playing well during a contract year, that automatically means he's playing for a contract? Funny, I remember Morris playing pretty well during the last 2 months of last season into the playoffs.
