Yeah, I was thinking the same thing earlier today. I’m going to try and be more mindful of my own posts going forward. There’s enough negativity in the world. TP for the thread, Liam.
Quoting Nick from the now locked Ime thread:

At some point you have to blame the performance on the court on the players on the court. Every loss is not the coach's fault and every win isn't because of the players.

It feels like a special season!
It's early and health matters, but given White's improvement plus the emergence of Hauser & Kornet and Al seemingly tapping into the fountain of youth things are looking really encouraging.

I hope the coach and the fans take the long view. Regular season and playoffs are two different animals. You need to survive the regular season with your health intact - much more important than winning every game. And every team is going to stink some nights.

Expectations just become ridiculously high when the team is winning games. We should be happy we’re in first place, and without Rob at that. The truth is, we are bound to lose games, our stars are bound to have off nights, what’s important is we reach the finals and win it all!  Nice post @Liam!

Surprising how many negative posts and threads are on here when the team is playing great and is in first place. The team plays like a unit and has great chemistry. Go Celtics.

I think it's a self defense mechanism from a fan base that has been hurt many times and doesn't want to leave itself vulnerable to being hurt again. So trash the team because then you can only be pleasantly surprised  :police:
Any odd typos are because I suck at typing on an iPhone :D

Overreacting is a feature here - not a bug.

Seriously though, we just missed a lot of shots, they were mostly good shots they were getting just not falling..

Pretty sure this place would have been complaining in 1986 when we lost a game at home. 40-1 home record! Remember those days?
This team does feel special to me as well.

The 86 team was the GOAT team! I hope this team can go all the way!

  Love this team. Love the Jays . Lucky to have them. Like everybody we need health but if we’re fortunate to have that box checked I DO think this is the year!
