Celtics (13-12) at Wizards (6-17) Game #26 2/14/21

This game has got trap game written all over it

They just finished their trap game. You mean they have multiple trap games in a row now because they are so mediocre?

The way they play defense nothing surprises me anymore

Trap games are for teams that are good.

This team right now is a joke that we are now the trapping team not the team being trapped....lol

If they lose this game then Ainge got to try and do something..what that is, I don’t know but need to shake this team up..keep losing and we be a lottery team

I don't think Ainge is going to shake up the team based on the result of 1 game.

I actually think they are waiting to see what they have with Kemba before deciding how aggressively to reinforce the team for this season vs. taking a longer term view.  If Kemba improves and starts to play well, it may (but not necessarily) push them in one direction.  If Kemba doesn't start to pick it up, it may be another direction.  Kemba may even get moved.

In either case though, I don't expect anything rash or reactionary.  Most likely, they ride Kemba, bring in the best available PF (who hopefully can shoot) with TPE money and go from there.

Bielica form Sacto? maybe send them TL and a late SRP? I think  Kings are trying to squeeze a FRP from Philly or the Heat (Reily would definitely trade a first rounder if he had one).

Danny needs to wait for now. C’s  are currently in 4th place and only 4 games out of first. Have to see how Kemba plays over the next month as he is the biggest question mark on the team.  I do believe that Danny should make a move before the deadline, though. Too many players on the roster right now that are not consistently contributing with: Kemba, Thompson, Teague, G-Williams, Edwards, Greene, Nesmith, Waters, Tacko... That’s most of the roster....The pieces just don’t fit right now and it’s no surprise that they are only a few games over .500

Anybody know what our record is on Sunday day game over the past, say, 10 seasons?  It can't be great.

[jpotter33]

Well, already starting off with questionable decision-making and half effort.

Yep. Poor defense, no ball movement. They look like a mediocre team.

Slow Start...

[Donoghus]

Awful start.
