Celtics (24-21) at Wizards (20-21) Game #46 1/25/16

Why are you guys upset with ET? He really hasn't done anything too negative to even talk about.

He's this year's Brandon Bass - you read the comments here, then watch what he's actually doing and think "where's all this coming from?"  Then you realize it's happening pretty much every game regardless of how he's playing.

That said he has become absolutely ungodly awful from 3.  I think Dwight Howard could crack 15% with enough attempts.

Brad loves analytics. Why the hell is Turner still playing?!

His On/Off differential (-7.3) is pretty pitiful. He also turns the ball over too much and is preventing Smart from getting valuable minutes as the primary ball handler. The hate is justified.

He keeps IT out for way too long in the 2nd

See that's a fair argument.  But a lot of the griping here is just free-floating vitriol that adheres to just about anything.

ET out

Celtics retake lead

ET in

Lead goes away ....mega mistakes

Smart playing ok but not liking those two drives he forced at the rim into the defender.

Don't know if it's a bad habit or he thinks he can hit those. Gotta pull up sooner.

I think people are just fed up with him at this point. I think he was very important last year, but Smart has developed a lot as a ball handler since then. He's also much too selfish of an offensive player, which really bothers me since he's actually a very good passer. Turner's game can be fun at times, he's a hilarious guy, and I really wish him the best with his next team, but I'd like his time on the Celtics to come to an end very soon.

I don't know why, but the turnovers from forced possessions by IT and Turner really tick me off anymore.

[tomrod]

all bricks and fouls!

[SHAQATTACK]

Come on guys
