Honestly I think this is what we are at the moment. Beyond our top three players we are loaded with g-league level and fringe NBA players. Sure guys like Payton Pritchard have a lot of potential but he is not ready to contribute night after night.

When one of our top guys (like Tatum today) has a really off game we are going to be in trouble no matter who we play.
This pretty much sums it up. Over the last two years, Cs have lost Horford/Irving/Morris/Hayward. That’s a lot of talent that was never really replaced.

Based on several other calls against the Celtics, that Kemba steal and bucket should have been an and one.

Nick is cracking me up. He's not saying anything that others don't say every game thread, and I've been reading them since 2008.
After my date flaked out, Nick has been the highlight of my Valentine's Day.

So this is legitimately going to be the second game in a row that we lose to the second worst team in the league, only this time it's a blowout.

So I am not watching this game.  Anyone care to tell me what is the big problem today?  Other than Tatum only has 4 points?

Effort, defense, bad shot selection?

Bingo, he used to drive us crazy but imagine how useful it would be to have Marcus Morris coming off the bench right now.

Can’t really blame DA for Irving, he’s unpredictable and glad he took the risk to acquire him at the time.

Unless he uses the TPE effectively losing Hayward for nothing was a major mess up; I just keep hoping that reported Indiana trade wasn’t true, because Turner and McDermott would be huge for this team right now.

You have to give DA at least a little bit more time  but as I said a couple of pages ago if he does nothing at the deadline he needs to go.

Reality is slowly sinking in.  Pretty hard to believe that the C's are this bad.  Hard to watch.

Celtics making Bradley Beal look like a superstar!!! Only the Celtics make scrubs look like superstars. That's on Brad for not screaming at them for 2 1/2 hours straight.
