Glen Davis has got to improve his shot selection in the paint. That short shot in the middle of a crowd in the paint gets rejected a ridiculous clip. Pass the ball out and restart the offense.

after today they wil be 0-4 against the Hawks and 1-3 against Orlando. This is definitely a championship caliber team. They just need time to get their chemistry back.  :o

We didn't hear you in the first half and yet you're here when the team is sinking, funny.

I was out in the first half and listening on the radio. Just got home. THis team stinks.

Yeah, funny coincidence.

no excuses today folks. time to call them what they are. championship teams dont blow double digit leads game after game. this team is a one round playoff winner this year. the window is shut.

I assume you'll be packing it in until the draft, then?

Getting out-hustled right now. Will be interesting to see if Ainge does something before the deadline, or sits on his thumbs as the ship sinks.

I am most certainly not enjoying this.  I'm at a point right now where a small, dark, tortured part of me is wishing Danny would just trade away our best players so that

a) They would have a chance at a title this year

and

b) I wouldn't have to see this team play really well and then totally choke away a lead like this ever again.

The last game against the Magic was heartbreaking and the Celtics are setting us up for another shattering loss.

I don't enjoy having any part of me feel that way.  But watching a team play so well and then play so bad, it's worse than watching a bad team play bad for a whole game.  Far, far worse.

Yeah, I love the hustle he's shown, but he's got to be smarter.

Well, I'm glad the Celtics' play that quarter made at least a few people happy, as they wear themselves out patting themselves on the back, saying what a terrible team we have.

roy -- sorry, but this team is not championship caliber. Are you happy with the way they are playing?

They played poorly in the third quarter.  However, I'm not going to ever be one of those fans who makes it their sole goal to whine and complain, and seemingly revel in the team's misfortunes.

Certain fans take no pleasure when the team is playing well, but they linger until the team starts to perform poorly, when they come out of the proverbial woodwork.

How anybody can enjoy seeing the Celts play terribly is beyond me, but for a few folks, they're enjoying this.

who is enjoying this choke job? anyone? it is frustrating and disgusting...packing for the draft...nope...but my expectations for this team have certainly been lowered

Re: third quarter defense.

I don't agree at all, Roy. It was terrible - flat-footed, no movement, slow switches.

Defense is effort. There was no effort there.
