I don't think this was that bad of a loss. You can't play defense much better than the Celtics did on at least three of the possessions that Durant or Westbrook drained 3s.

I think this is subtly one of the best games of the year for the Celts. I don't have a disaster feeling today

This is the best I've seen them play all season.  They really wanted this win.  Unfortunately what I think this game tells us is that the team just isn't good enough, if there were any question of that anymore.

At what point do you begin to feel embarrassed if you're a Celtic? This fall from grace is tough for me and I'm not even playing...

I wouldn't feel too embarrassed about tonight.  The Thunder are an excellent team, and for the most part the Celts played well.

Agreed. C's played pretty well.

Amen. This wasn't an embarrassing game. Gosh, perspective, banned at celticsblog for how long now? Do you all realize how good The Thunder are? How good Westbrook is? Are you seeing what he is doing whenever the game has become close?

Does everyone remember just a few years ago? Probably not or the entitlement that we must be the best at all times wouldn't exist. Ugh, makes reading this site so deflating sometimes.

No matter what, Doc will start and finish a game with the Big Three.

So I guess we are at the point of being happy with a well-played loss at home.  Hoe the mighty have fallen.

Not impressed by the Thunder.  Fluky win over a struggling C's team that gave away a lot of free points.

They need better play from their bigs to be a legit contender.

Got beat by one of the top 3 teams in the league no shame in that. Problem is C's coincidence is got to be shot now. You start to question every bad play.

Good game, another loss.

Pity they didn't come away with the win but it was nice to see a much improved performance after the recent horror shows we have been subjected to.

Hey guys, wouldn't it be great to have a point guard who can shoot?

:D

Oh stop with the dramatics. Please. I was not talking about this game in particular. I meant the season as a whole.
