Is the C's starting the season off slow now a trend?

[CelticSooner]

This was a worry going into the season I had. Seems like the C's always start the season off ugly hovering around the .500 mark. I think it has a lot to do with CBS tinkering with things and guys trying to adjust. I think the ship will get righted eventually but feels like games get wasted early on that could help in the playoff seeding down the road.

If that proves to be true this season, I won't care, as long as we start winning after like 15-20 games or so.

But if this continues for the foreseeable future, even after we get healthy, then it's really time to worry.

As far as this game though, we're right in this thing if Mudiay doesn't go crazy in Q1

Over reaction. C's vets are hurt and who is filling in for Horford, KO and Crowder are extremely young and inexperienced. Get hethy and get the rotation in tact with 9-10 players in roles they can handle, and the Cs will be fine.

Speaking of having players out.. Really need to give Avery time to rest that shoulder.. You can't play playoff basketball without him.

Better to hit peak form late in the season heading into the playoffs than everyone getting burned out come that time.

If by game 25-30 there's still slow starts then it's a problem but it's a long season  and we are only 2 weeks into it.

Expect Danny to make a trade if we are trending bad. Getting our best players on the court will help rectify this

The record is even worse when the opponent scores 100 plus
