  • GOT IT!!!
Is it crazy to think some people thought the C's would be the best team in the league defensively?

I say yes. Still soft in the paint.
we were very good defensively last year and replaced Jared Sullinger and Evan Turner with Horford Brown and Rozier.

We should be one of the best defensive teams in the league.

One of the best not THE best.

There is no bigger NBA insult than being compared to the Houston Rockets defensively.

TP to Abby Chin for the unfortunately appropriate stats...

God, JJ you have been absolutely terrible. You passed up an open guy in the corner to selfishly take it yourself, got rebuffed, and then threw it away.

What a shame.  Great turnout and the crowd has been good tonight.  They deserve a full refund.

Horford isn't a rim protector Abby. He helps spacing on offense more than anything.
He is a rim protector. Just don't expect him to body legit bigs out there.

God, we suck
I could very well see the Hawks... starting Taurean Prince at the 3, who is already better than Crowder, imo.

you vs. the guy she tells you not to worry about

What's that thing the Nuggets are doing right now that the Celtics aren't? I'm not sure but I think it's called "trying hard."

Where's the defense been this season in the entire NBA.

Not just talking about this game.. but seems like every game is ending something like 130-120 or 110-105... rarely any scores below 95 nowadays.

Also helps that they got size and bigs who can just "walk" into the paint and score at will. Zeller and Jerebko can't do much either.
