This team needs a player like Barnes.  Get him Danny.

Remember when we won 4 in a row without Smart?

This team is incredibly frustrating to watch. They are awful television. At this point, I hope they just become sellers and just give time to Timelord. Watching him play is literally the only bright spot on this team right now.

Ainge was right. No respect for the lesser opponents

The starters were tremendously bad in the 1st half.

The "Starters" stunk!

I don't think he can and I don't think he's going to be able to make any deal.  He doesn't have much to trade - and that's also his fault.

Tatum/brown 5-23 from 3.

Starting Point guard with 2 assists and 4 TO.

Not exactly an NBA team.

This
yeah, I'm reaching this point too.  if this is the C's team we're getting this season -- infuriatingly inconsistent with no excuse considering how we've seen them play so much better in recent seasons -- I think they may be better off selling off players for more assets and roster spaces to rebuild around the J's. 

keep the J's and probably Timelord.  Move Kemba, TT, Theis, Smart, Semi and GWill for what you can get.  Might as well keep Pritchard, Nesmith and Romeo to see what they can do next season.

That’s what happens when you think very highly of yourself I guess? The funny thing is the team isn’t even playing well and yet they think they can “coast” against the so called  lesser opponents.

The answer may be Romeo..without him Cs have not been at full strength this season.
it's amazing how much a guy can improve when he's not playing. The guy I remember is at about the same level as Semi - except that Semi is a better shooter.

Brad should be screaming in this press conference but he's just calm and doesn't seem to care. The Cavs are tanking and we got beat down by them!!!!

Guys, Brad is NEVER going to be the dude screaming in the press conference. It doesn't matter how upset he is. He won't be that guy. Expecting it of him is like expecting your cat to wag its tail and lick your face when you walk in the door from work.  It could do it, sure, but it would be contrary to it's fundamental nature.

Brad said he should've played Tacko. No crap, Brad. Should've put Waters out there too! COACH!!!!

This team is very hard to watch. I shut it off in 2nd uarter. The wife put it on and I walked in mid 4th quarter where they were down 3. Missed free throws. I hate hero ball. Boy do we miss Hayward and we miss Big Al. Our 2 all stars are going NOWHERE FAST. We will be lucky to make the play in game for the playoffs.  Absolutely can't beat good teams. Have a very hard time beating BAD TEAMS that are trying to lose. Just sickening.


EDIT: BTW Liam they should NEVER EVER EVER PLAY WATERS. He is TERRIBLE.

Losing to the Cavs on St. Patty’s Day.... shame on you Celtics.

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.
