Here comes the "mirage run". Or, my personal favorite - the "moral victory run".

Called it. Good on them for deciding to actually play with some intensity down the stretch, but once again it's all meaningless given that we decided to play with our heads up our rearend for 2/3 of the game.

Time for a new coach this summer and a major overhaul of this team around the Jays and Timelord.
Recovering Joe Skeptic, but inching towards a relapse.

Lol Kemba on defense is funny. Brunson doesn’t care at all about him.

I called this like 10 pages back, they’re so dang predictable. It’s actually more frustrating than getting blown out because they prove they could be better.

That’s on Brad.

You would think after so many games of seeing what happens when they play hard with effort in the 4th quarter, that they would apply it to the other 3 quarters. But they will all wake up tomorrow morning with no recollection of any of it. Rinse and repeat.

The run started with J & J on the bench, coincidence?

Bucks pre-deadline. It’s the same story.

cripes. even with mediocre 3 point shooting the celtics would be tied or ahead now. sigh.

Even mediocre 2 point shooting would've won the game.

We neee to rid ourselves of Kemba.  They are hunting him on defense every time down.  And for some reason, we make absolutely no effort to avoid the switch.  Absolutely maddening!!!!
