  • The Truth
basketball is less and less entertaining to me, it's just 3's on top of 3's, no defense, no dunks, no bruisers.

we tend to draft small guys like pritchard, edwards, waters etc, and their entire game is based on weather they can or can't shoot and drown 3's. small guys have to be able to get around defenders and create for others.

C’s don’t have any decent big men on this squad, would have liked to see Fernando.

Yeah, Auguste is terrible. Hauer is not very good at defense either.

I agree.  I miss the mid-range game. To me it was more interesting than chucking 40 3's a game.

But that's why Ainge failed the past couple of seasons.  The game is about shooting and there have been too many guys on this roster who can't shoot period, let alone make a basket when you need one in a tight game.

Yam has been the only bright spot for the C’s.

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.

I don't know who's coaching this team but he's doing a terrible job so far.

Langford should be very noticeable in a game like this.  Instead he's a non-factor.

Hard to look good when the guards are taking all the shots.
