IT's heroics wasted.

Ultimately this game doesn't matter.

Every game matters when you're a contender but not a dominant team.

horrible.  brad you suck.

I'm sure that's not what Brad had in mind.

both play calls were terrible.  the 3 by bradley with davis on him was just as bad.  Both were poor play design and the team not being prepared.  this should not have even been a game.

It's not 2k, Brad doesn't control his players while they're playing. AB decided to take that shot, that clearly wasn't the play call

Can't stand his Edited.  Profanity and masked profanity are against forum rules and may result in discipline. ass. Such a [dang] scrub.

I don't think we're a contender.  a playoff team, not a contender

1 game is the difference between playing Charlotte with homecourt advantage and playing Atlanta without it.

They all matter.

Ultimately this game doesn't matter.  What's important is that we saw some decent individual performances.   I still don't sweat games we lose without our best player (Horford) and best two-way player (Crowder). 

But sure would like to see a Bradley game winner here or something.

Of course this game matters.  Missing Crowder and Horford isn't a great excuse, since the Pelicans are missing key players too.  Can't afford to drop to a 1-9 team when you want home court advantage in the playoffs.

Olynyk was pretty much awful the whole night. Isaiah and Bradley are usually the only reason the team is ever in games, so I can overlook some of their errors.

Didn't have enough options on offense tonight.

Agreed.  Team is fodder for Warriors/Cavs of the world regardless, but we should win 55+ when all is said and done.  I don't care about us losing a close game this early in the season.  We're going to be really good this year.  And there's still the wildcard of a potential mid-season blockbuster shifting dynamics.

Love howv celticsblog game threads are often ahead of the official NBA live score.

A healthy Celtics team blows them out.

[Clench123]

Olynyk screwed us!
