Getting outrebounded by 16. But, once again, just another reminder that Danny said we didn't need another rebounder that might hurt this offense.What's even worse is that the Raptors won tonight, too, so they'd just be two freaking games back of us now if we lose this.

Don't care what everyone says about getting a rim protector. Getting another scorer should be priority number one.The problem is IT becomes a blackhole if his shots are not falling. Even if there is another scorer, he wouldn't get touch because IT is forcing the issue.We don't know that. Right now, he's the only one on the team that can consistently score. They are shooting 30%. I don't rhino he has any sort of confidence in anyone else on the team to consistently score.

Like I said earlier, he needs to learn when to pass and when to take over. If his shots are not falling, play within the offense and stop forcing the issue.

Hes taken 17 shots tonight and made 3. I understand that hes earned the right to shoot through his slumps and that if we had another scorer he might not have to be as aggressive, but its tough to blame 3/17 on teammates.He's having a bad shooting night no doubt and the past couple of games. But the rest of the team ain't helping either.

we are about to get to that magic number of getting outrebounded by 20
Bill Simmons isn't letting Danny off the hook for this deadline either.https://twitter.com/BillSimmons/status/836403799468040192QuoteTrade deadline guys that would have helped the Celtics bench...NoelTuckerBogdanovicIbakaGibson Lou WilliamsIlyasovaAnyoneBut, no, let's hoard all of these lesser assets so that we can field a D-League team and an international team.
