pretty sad effort for a game 5 at home. mentally this team has fallen in the gutter since halftime of  game 4

Wow. Are we seriously letting them shoot 60% again?

Not sure I'd agree with 'letting'. D has been pretty tight.  Shots reasonably contested. 

What? Those wide open shots below the bucket and the wide open 3s were not contested.

For the most part, the Sixers are making jumpshots and the Celtics aren't.  They're getting their points in the paint which I'm ok with.

But at some point, jumpshots need to be hit and the defense needs to be a WHOLE lot better.

There's a reason why Elton Brand has averaged 18 minutes in this series.  You can't let him burn you like this.

Give Philly credit they are shooting lights out and the Celts defense is pretty solid this quarter.

It's easy to shoot well when your wide open, the last 4 or 5 shots Philly has made are open jumpers. newsflash --- Elton brand and Lou Williams can make open jumpers-- someone tell the Celtics

Celtics have themselves a dogfight yet again, with a younger, bigger dog...

Outlook is grim.

this is one of those moments we really need Rondo to step up.. but he keeps on hiding.

He's a very good player, he's not a great player.
The Celtic in me.

I'm amazed at the negativity and down right ridiculous observations happening at this site right now.

I think I'll come back in the fourth and laugh my ass off at you people when the Celtics are closing this team out.

Simply pathetic way to be a fan if you ask me.
