This is no longer a knee jerk reaction

How long can the fans take this??

Tatum plays with zero flair. 

Walker is brickmaster 3000

Smart keeps jacking up bricks at the worst possible moments in the game

They look like they have zero respect for the game.  Do not take care of the ball with care

Team is losing to basement dweller. Poor attitude from start of games

Barely hanging onto a playoff spot and losing to teams like the Cavs or Kings??

What is trading for Barnes going to do??

If this is a knee jerk reaction,  go ahead and explain...

I’d vote for new coach just because I wanna see how the Js perform with a stricter coach. I seriously think Brad has been tuned out. I mean the players like him but they don’t do what he says. Brad is a proponent of “equal opportunity” offense, ball movement, team defense. We saw that in his previous teams (remember how he made lesser players better...Crowder, IT, Jerebko, AB, etc) and it was fun to watch them even if they lost because they played hard every game. This team is just selfish and entitled. Even a player like GWill has become such a complainer that he’d rather jaw with the refs instead of going back on D.

Trade Tatum to Indiana for Myles Turner and McBuckets? Lol, sounds familiar, don't know if salaries match.

Did you see some of the crisp passing by the Kings? Ball movement is actually part of their offense. The Cs offense is heavy ISO ...JT and JB gotta show what they learned in summer shooting camp.

The real question is, do you think Ainge/Wyc fire Stevens before they "fire" Tatum, Walker etc.

Ainge has strictly defended Brad on the radio

You do wonder if this Indiana coaching gig is actually perfect timing to part with Brad for Ainge - giving them both an easy way out for an amicable parting.

The roster issues are apparent, but part of that is also because our young stars have not been properly developed to help lead the rest of the team, which is on Brad and the rest of the coaching staff. I think it's been clear for awhile that this team has tuned Brad out, particularly the stars.

They need new blood in there, preferable someone who played in the league and can better manage these guys' emerging stardom. To be honest, I also think an African-American coach would be better for them and they'd listen to him more, too, especially with the current climate around this issue in the NBA and head coaching opportunities.

I think the NBA is still a players league. JT is a young All Star on a new contract extension and JB is on a very team friendly contract as well. If at all, maybe stepping down from the job should come from Brad himself, if he can’t turn this ship around.

Dump Stevens. We should be the best defensive team in the league but instead we give up a massive amount of points and chuck 3s like wieners

I think I'd go coach. Someone like Brad Stevens just wants to draw up plays, he doesn't want to be a disciplinarian. I don't think the players respect him that much. It's like a workplace that has an easy-going boss and the workers get lazy.

I'd love to see someone like Kevin Garnett as the head coach and Stevens an assistant coach. Garnett would scare the crud out of everyone if they were playing lazy.

PP as head coach would help Tatum with KG as the defensive coach.

I've only caught a few games. So glad I didn't get nba pass now.

Yeah, I do see Stevens more in that "Thibodeau" role from our championship year. In the NBA, I don't think he's a good head coach material given his overall character, personality, and just overall history as not being an NBA player.
