8 years of rebuilding is getting real old. that is long enough to rebuild from the top down.      danny do something this year or you and brad can do the fans a favor and make it your last. see blatt.

really? Are you trolling?

Nine years of rebuilding ... you mean the 2008 chip was in a rebuilding year?

Nine years?! Where did you get nine years from?

It's been less eight since we last won a title, six since we've been in the finals, and four since we were a major contender. Your not rebuilding if you have a team capable of making a finals appearance.


We've been rebuilding for three years, not 9. And in those 3 years, we've set ourselves up for a path to contention better than almost anyone else in the NBA. Stevens is one of the leagues best young coaches. Ainge and him have done an excellent job so far.

Have patience. Rome wasn't built in a day.

I think he meant to say:
"TIRED OF NOT BEING THE FAVORITES TO WIN THE TITLE". I am.

we've lost so many close games this year. it just screams coaching change and we need a a go to player.

Math is hard!
Jaylen Brown will be an All Star in the next 5 years.

I guess by this logic, the Golden State Warriors are currently rebuilding.

Nooooo...that's what usually happens with one of the youngest rosters in the NBA. Believe it or not, winning is actually an acquired skill in the NBA.

No. It screams "Fifth Youngest Team In The NBA". Of course we need more talent. Almost every team in the league does. But CBS has done an incredible job getting the most out of his roster, and Ainge has done a fantastic job setting us up for the future.

I've been a Boston sports fan my entire life, and the level of greed coming around the Boston franchises is amazing. We have one of the youngest teams in the entire league that's already good enough to make the playoffs and a top-5 pick coming our way in June. Were in year 3 of a rebuild. I don't get how anyone could reasonably expect more at this point.

Btw, FCO, how can you say "I'm tired of not being considered a title favorite" when you've been one of the most vocal members of the "We need to be absolutely terrible to get a high pick!" Crowd?

you're only as young as you want to be. just an excuse for mediocre basketball. good teams are built with a mix of age groups. we've been too young to0 long. get some veterans that know how to win. see kg and pp. where are those guys.
