Stevens has a ways to go on his ATO plays..

That was so bad I laughed.

If you stop the Celtics from running, they can't score. Two straight games where it seems the team never got in transition. I don't like to overreact, but if you're even an average team, you have no business dropping consecutive games to Charlotte and New York.
We're about to go 7 & 14, we aren't near average at the moment. We are one of the worst teams in the league. Nights like this are going to happen, often.

Some of the losses haven't been all that disappointing.  This one was.

Terrible. Worst two games of the season. Danny DO SOMETHING.

Just wondering. If our weaknesses in  offense are in half court basketball, why bother with ATO plays at all?

Tonight's effort was abysmal. The other losses were somewhat entertaining especially that Monday night game in Washington. Charlotte played a good game and beat the Celtics. This game here against the Knicks was not acceptable.

Change has to happen and we have to get better at this game.
The beatings will continue until morale improves

In fairness, it doesn't matter if the players don't execute.  But when players fail to execute over and over again, that is on the coach.

I don't see either Sully or Olynyk as long term keepers. Trade bait.

 I don't  know who would take such bait.

God I hope this isn't another long stretch like the 90's and early 2000's of being a crap team. Haven't we seen enough bad basketball to last a lifetime during that stretch lol. 2008 seems like 20 years ago watching this team the last 2 years

Sully is a keeper. He's just having a rough stretch.

I second Potter here. The team needs to be built around Sully, Olynyk, Bradley and Smart. THe rest of them including Rondo and Green can be traded or let go.

I would try to play Gerald Wallace instead of Jeff Green at this point.

Second game in a row with lack of effort, not a good sign.
