Don’t want to be a downer but Celtics has played a very easy schedule the last 3 weeks..going to wait until we play top teams to get excited
Oh don't worry, the next loss and you'll see the "Ime has got to go", "is Tatum an elite player" and other similar threads pop up again and it'll be doom and gloom again 
Definitely agree, but they have won 7 straight, have beaten some quality teams in that stretch and they are also winning games they definitely would lose like 2 months ago. There's progress and fortunately we're healthy too
I don't blame people, myself included, for overreacting to a bad/uneven start to the year.
TP for the honesty, and I don’t think we were overreacting, just reacting to a first half of the season start that was playing WAY below our potential, reaching its nadir at the Portland game, one of the most embarrassing losses I can remember in my 60+ years as a Celtic fan, and described as the same by Scal. He was not getting thru to the players who supposedly chose him, and that’s on him.
His lack of varied offensive schemes, his stubborn reliance on his small rotation so our players were gassed at the end of games (which is why so many teams, including Portland who held us to zero (yeah, that means none) baskets in the last 7 minutes came back to beat us), his refusing to play the bench and let them learn from their mistakes so either (a. They would be useful to us or (b. To increase their trade value, his crappy (I don’t care what that dumb stat said) ATOs and his so many in game blunders, all the while keeping himself in an echo chamber with his staff are all good reasons to say he was coaching crappily. He was, absolutely.
So no, I don’t think we were overreacting. We would have won 6-10 more games in the first 50 games of the season, but for Ime.
Perk called him out numerous times for many of the things enumerated above. Perk said he wasn’t holding the players accountable.
I don’t know what changed, but I’m thrilled that it has.
So maybe we got our wish and the old Ime is gone, and a new coach Ime is here. Time will tell. He now has DW whom he wanted, and I’m thrilled that he has, and we got Theis back, about which I am also thrilled. The East is in a volatile state…
Let’s make a run….Go Cs!
