Celtics are a soft finesse team

[Megatron]

Any time a team brings an ounce of physicality and aggresisveness into play, this team crumbles like a girl scout cookie and concedes.

Just have to deal with it, were a soft team and will be barring a miracle.

Sucks but we have to come to terms with it.

These guys got their rings in 2008 and we have to be happy for them, but I dont suggest putting much emotion into this team that has a one way ticket to failure all but punched in.

Wow.  Who are you?

[Eja117]

But we're so much better offensively. Plus JOn and Shaq will be back annnnnyyyy day now

Yeah - a miracle like us destroying Lebron and the Cavs in the playoffs.....a miracle like us upsetting ORL - beating them TWICE on their homecourt, taking their heart....a near-miracle of us almost beating LA without HCA, too.

The Celtics are apparently a miraculous team .

Check back after we win the next game--he'll do a complete 180.

You guys really need to open your eyes and look at the team right now.

They are softer then toilet paper. Kwame Brown and DJ White owned them last night.

And your kidding yourselves if you think the Celtics are going to beat Minnesota without Kevin Love.

Beasley will most likley have a career high, as well as other scrubs nobody has heard of going off for big numbers.

C'mon, Man......if even ESPN and NBATV are making light of The Celtics recent struggles, then why can't we?

I was as upset as the next blogger after last night, but I slept on it and I'm ready for round 2.

Methinks that after last season's Playoff Run, no one wants to dismiss our Celtics.

Kwame had 12reb, 2blk, 2 steals against us in February while Perk was still here. We got scorched off the bench by Henderson & Livingston because we didn't have a second unit that could defend them.

You would think the playoffs already started and we dropped a couple games sheesh.

Thin mints and samoas are actually two of the more structurally sound cookies I've encountered in my eating experiences.  I would be curious to hear others' input on this.

Perhaps a more apt analogy would have been to Chips Ahoy's chewy variety, though I understand that would have not provided the basis for the contrived gender reference.  So it goes, I guess.

Nenad Kristic melts like Ice-Cream in the post. He's the modern day marshmallow man from the Ghostbusters, except he has a tendency to brick hook shots, if thats possible.

After his encouraging first few games aswell...ahh!

DJ White also caused big problems for the lakers, Chicago, and spurs recently. 

I think it's more a factor of teams not being familiar with him, then it is an issue of him being a lower caliber player.  Not saying that it excuses the C's play, but for that specific player...I wouldn't be surprised to see him become a familiar face next yr. and beyond.

I ate thin mints tonight and was thinking the exact same thing about that
