Rondo/Bass/Collins and pick for Conley and Gasol.

I'm sick and tired of everyone's excuses.

Quote
Nothing to be done about a lot of these shots they're making.
... and the like.

When you give people the confidence and the space to make shots THEY MAKE SHOTS!!!  They're paid to make shots.

The Celtics may be getting a hand up on opponents' shots, but they've already allowed the other team to be completely at ease in their environment.  The other team is confident they're going to make their shots because the Celtics are slow and lazy.

I'm disgusted by this team and I'm tired of fans (and Doc!) making lame excuses.  This team is losing because they're lazy and complacent.  This is a team of talented individuals playing poorly as a team.  They're an awful team.  Something needs to change.

The guy that said that Bird would have decked his teammate by now is right... EXCEPT who on Bird's teams would have deserved it?  Those guys played hard back then.  To the end.

That was my point: Bird would never let his teammates make him look like a chump game after game after game. Nobody even appears determined tonight, much less sick of losing.

Same plaguing issues with or without Bradley, this team is going nowhere without acquiring another big man. And no, not just any 7'0 scrub body.

we tried telling people AB would not make the difference. we need a big man who can play D and score and rebound.


Exactly...I'd traded what ever it took to bring in Cousins

another scrub center an't gonna help :'(

all options are on the table now. anybody can be traded probably other than KG. he can still ball but i'm telling him i want more low post presence or you just may be shipped out also. enough is enough. rondo and PP are definitely on the table now also. As well as the possibility glenn is fired by Danny.   The coach is ultimately responsible in the end. it is his baby. if they refuse to listen to him it is useless having any of them. simple as that. coach or players.
LET'S GO CELTICS!

We're not getting Cousins. Can we move on already?

No  ;D

... or ask for Irving..

I think we could offer Rondo + Bradley + Sully + #1 and the Cavs would still turn us down.
Yep

Short of Kevin Durant being offered, I can't see Cleveland trading Kyrie.

Can you blame them? Why would you pick up the alleged future a sub-500 team doesn't want?

Ehhh, probably more likely than actually contending for a title. And that has been talked about quite a bit, lol. So keep the Cousins talk going!

Bass is such a negative right now, Memphis probably wouldn't even consider it.

The performance tonight doesn't bother me like the other ones recently.

I think the effort has been good today. They've struggled but they have played hard.

It's like they are in tank mode. It's just not working and I'm not sure a trade will fix it.

I don't think Memphis does that trade.

They have a very good team right now. Well balanced. Rondo is the best player in the deal and the value isn't awful but their team is so well formed / balanced right now ... it just doesn't make sense for them.

Don't even think they have pieces to make a deal. Team is just lost. They show no signs of getting better. They are getting worse each game. Lee...bass...green...terry...all wastes of cap space
