It's on the street.  The tank is on.  Glenn frye anyone?  We are pretty bad.  Fun watching these guys deveop at least.  KO was a bit more aggressive tonight.  Sully is becoming pretty consistant.   Still need some guys to step to the forefront though.  We don't really have that.

Yep--good to see KO taking 14 shots in his 24 minutes tonight. That's only the third time this year he's taken that many attempts. (He took 14 in 28 in the first game of the season, and 17 in 31 off the bench against Philly back on December 15th.)

Still needs to work on his technique and aggressiveness on the defensive end, but once he gets there on that I think he'll end up as a plus defender despite his limited speed, hops and wingspan. He's actually bulking up and building strength pretty nicely for a 7' 23yo.

The tank is on, and I wouldn't have it any other way! At least this year Ainge is deciding to go all out for the tank unlike last year. Would've been nice if he could have made these trades earlier in the year.. but with some luck we can finish 3rd worst, meaning the worst pick we could get is pick 6 (which is probably what we will get with our lottery luck, or non thereof)  :-[

No elite talent to lead the battle at the end of a game.

We would benefit from a closer, that's for sure.  But I think we Just need to play harder. 

ATL, Milwaukee, PHX are getting it done.

Interestingly enough; Elite talent like Melo, Kobe, Durant and Anthony Davis might miss the playoffs. 

...just saying.
