Here comes hero-ball IT ::)
I mean, does it matter?  We're getting our ass handed to us.

It matters because there are still lots of minutes to play and get their act together.
Not anymore.  Down 17 with five to go.

To be honest, I'm glad for this loss.
::)

Yes.  It teaches us that EVERY advantage in this league is valuable.  EVERY ****ing advantage. 

When you buy into your own hype so much (it's not only limited to players), you come up  short.

These guys needed to be brought down back to earth.  We haven't, except maybe one or two games, played basketball with gusto this season.

This is Clippers' game to lose but if we had won games we supposed to have won, we wouldn't be this apprehensive.

I always said when I left the Celtics, I could not go to heaven, because that would
 be a step down. I am pure 100 percent Celtic. I think if you slashed my wrists, my
 blood would’ve been green.  -  Bill "Greatest of All Time" Russell

Aye carumba. This is getting out of hand quickly.

They'll probably get slaughtered by the Warriors on national TV Wednesday, and probably get owned again by Denver's bigs on Friday.

Not to mention that the Nets won tonight, and Boston's blowing a chance to gain ground on Cleveland.

This is shaping up to be a great week.
"There are two kinds of people: those who say to God, 'Thy will be done,' and those to whom God says, 'All right, then, have it your way.'"

I feel like they gave both of these two games away. Horford does not do much while he is out there, but he eats a lot of minutes up. If Kelly plays this much in the playoffs, the Celtics get bounced in the first round.

Most concerning aspect of this game is not that we are shooting badly, but are getting few good looks...

Somebody has to ask Stevens about that line up after the game, right?

This ain't game seven.  Sometimes you put guys out there and hope they don't implode.  Let them learn through the fire.

not over quite yet.

basically over, but not yet.

Were losing by double digits, we're not giving this one away.  We're getting taken the cleaners.

There is NEVER going to a situation where THAT line up is going to work.
