Don't be naive

How is that argument naive? Players are creatures of routine. They NEED consistency. The last two games ( perhaps longer) they've been subject to a haphazard, arbitrary substitution pattern.

His argument was that stevens "tweaking" a lineup (that is brand new, they brought in 3 new players) was more detrimental than trading their best player away? it makes no sense! The team's cohesion and chemistry are trying to be refound after the departure of Rondo by stevens. As well as two games is such a small sample size to blame a coach for coaching errors. You can reshuffle the cards in your hand but if all you have is crap you can bluff but it won't work out very well. Our team is awful and we need to quit blaming Stevens for that before we run him out of town

This is like watching a high school girls basketball game.

Now you did it...Beat LA is going to say that's uncalled for because its a sexist post.  Just a matter of time...
Before a game on Christmas against the Pacers, Bird told Chuck Person that he had a present for him. During the game, Bird shot a 3-pointer in front of Person. Immediately after releasing the ball, Bird said to Person, "Merry F!#*ing Christmas!" and then the shot went in.

You know, last season, despite all the losing, the team competed hard. Every night. In contrast, the last game and a half have been marked by laziness, inattention and indifference. Poor, poor performance.

  • A true Celtic plays with heart.
Why why are we starting Nelson.. Don't care if we lose, put Smart in and START him!! Also Vuveic sounds like a foreign Shia La Beouf.

I thought (just after posting it) that someone might dislike it, but I've seen enough high school girls basketball games to know that this isn't a sexist thing to say, it's absolute observational fact.

Does it look like Jeff Green has checked out? Sully also looks to be lacking interest.

can't blame Green for checking out.  He's a sitting duck.  Very simple.  Dude is obviously gone by the deadline. 

The entire team is mentally out of it right now.  The rotations are sporadic and random.  This team is bad, but it's not this bad.

They know they can't win without Rondo, right?  ;)

I think it's awful of you. Those girls(in general) don't deserve the comparison.

Yes, because Stevens reads 'GreenGoggles' blog posts.

Nelson

Is bad luck

His presence is a dark cloud over any program

You're right. I retract my previous statements.  ;D
