"I did not think it was possible but you both blow and suck".

This team is awful. Sullinger has fallen off a cliff, Olynyk is still a mess. Rondo puts up phantom stats. Now Young and Smart are most likely out for a couple of weeks. There is not a single player on this team that is even remotely all star caliber. Rondo is being paid 13 million right now. If you think he is worth that or a max contract you are out of your mind. Green is finally playing well. What a surprise, it is a contract year.

We have no assets to get better players, we are not bad enough to score a top three pick. Ainge has blown it.

I also think some of the vets are tuning out Stevens. And by some I mean Rondo. Stevens keeps saying he wants more  pace and Rondo comes up the court so slowly I could beat him to the time line. This is pathetic. I want to see changes soon or I am packing it in. I am too busy to keep caring about a team like this and a front office that has had time pass them by.

Not trying to pick on you or single you out, but this is what I don't get (besides the "time pass them by" which I think is way off base): If it isn't fun to watch basketball/root for a team, why do it? Just pack it in. But, is the only fun in rooting for a winning team? Is a team winning a championship the only way to enjoy the sport? If that is the case, and you can't enjoy the myriad of other things to enjoy about the game then do it, pack it in, cause this team isn't winning this year (we probably disagree about how long it will take for them to be contending). I just don't get the championship or it is pointless outlook. It doesn't seem fun at all, and it doesn't sound like you are having any fun. Again, not singling you out, but I read it endlessly around here and it makes me wonder, if you can't enjoy non-championship basketball do you really enjoy basketball or just parades?

I don't think it's just some of the vets.

I actually posted earlier that this team would be fun to watch this year and that we may not win much be we would play hard and be entertaining. We have looked listless beyond it being called fatigue the last to games. There is something up with the team that feels all wrong. I have followed this team since 1983 so when I say I am feeling fed up I think you can cut me some slack. I am not sure of it but it feels like certain players know that after the 15th of this month when players who were signed in the summer can be traded that they are going to be gone. The team has played like it is the end of the year. Not the 21st game.

So two listless games and you're about to give up? I hate for you to be a Philly fan.
