Celtics (23-6) at Warriors (8-21) 12/28

Geesh, some of you guys, I won't name names, are just a bundle of fun to watch games with.

I'm not what you call a guy that loves all the "rah rah" stuff but the blatant and consistent negativity in every single post gets a bit much after a while, don't you think.

? Everyone watches a game differently. I think these type posts just causes arguments.

There is a bandit of guys that only post negative comments and I would ban them if I was running the show.

We shouldn't be positive all the time, but when those guys come in here acting like a loss in December without our best player means we aren't a championship contender, it's just a tad bit unbearable.

Exactly... TP!

Grande and Max should be fired. They are being extremely negative right now talking about how dumnb the Celtics played last night and tonight. How dare they be so negative?

[ManUp]

Mad that I stayed up for this.

Good night all.

[vinnie]

Wednesday night is going to be ugly.

Someone should tell Doc that THAT's how to end game when you're up by 3 in the closing seconds.

Doc has fouled up 3 in the past. He didn't have a timeout.

This was some cheap badly played badly called basketball. I'm sorry I stayed up.

[WeMadeIt17]

Dont like the call to miss the Free throw surprised nobody has said anything about that.

Another bad loss to another bad team, but no negativity. Great effort by the Celtics. They are going to score 99 points against the worst defensive team in the NBA.

Vinnie you are right!  --- The C's should be praised for playing so hard tonight.  After all they were playing back to back nights against two of the worst teams in the NBA.  They only had 2 Hall of Famers and another probably All Star available to play.  And the Warriors are MUCH better than their 8-21 record they are tough.  Just like the Clippers are better than there 13-17 record!  The C's lost to both teams last year too but that's OK they fought hard.  

How could they possibly expect to win these games against the NBA's worst teams that is too much to ask!
And hey the announcers just said the C's had won 88 straight games when having over a 16 point lead.  That streak couldn't possibly continue!

Way to GO let's keep it positive!

First off, they are better than their record if you have actually watched any of their games this year.

I don't know, guess its just a difference of attitude. As said below, some times you look and the only comments from people are entirely negative. 23-7 isn't anything to shake a stick at in my opinion. The NBA is a long long haul. Teams go on runs, both good an bad. That is the way the league always has been and always will be. Are the Suns horrible for losing to the Warriors?

the warriors win their seasons championship big deal

[Chief]

GS plays that crazy style that takes almost every team out of their game. They don't always win but almost always make teams play their style. Luckily GS and the Clippers won't be facing us in the playoffs.

[Tai]

Ellis had to play the entire game for this win to happen for the Warriors....

...We'll be just fine.

[QuinielaBox]

if the drop this one..i am on the bridge for sure

Whoa...slow down there partner.  Or is this like Urban Myer.  I quit...wait...hiatus.  I'm scared of Saban...errr...it's my health...errr...my meal ticket Tebow is gone.

naw...just cant stomach boston playing down to competition....they SHOULD beat GS...

I'm sorry, the schedule maker, the referees, the  injuries, THE MATHCUPS, and our own sloppiness bit us again in the swamps of Oakland. This is absolute purgatory that rivals the Patriots playing in Denver.

Yes they did. And even if they didn't, couldn't he have shouted it to them?

Well I wouln't ban, TP for the sentiment. I am willing to call out though

You know what? I hate unwarranted positivity.

All the negativity wouldn´t be so excessive if some people could simply acknowledge when the team stinks.

I mean, if the C´s would lead by 15, you wouldn´t have to read so much negativity.

Like I said, I'm far from a "rah rah" positivity guy. It grates on my senses, to be honest.

And I've been as critical as most regarding the C's. Their effort in the second quarter was abysmal. Their constant three point shooting strategy, awful. Their perimeter defense bad. And these are just criticisms from this thread.

But the constant barrage of over the top negativity and doomsday comments in every single post coming from some is just awful to have to read through. It's depressing and really ruins the enjoyment of the thread. Heck if I wanted to be down I would simply go look at my company's accounts receivable over the last 6 weeks.
