The tone of the board seems to be focusing on how great we are. We think we overcame the world, when we won against the Heat without Horford, who apparently thinks being a father is more important than playing for the Celtics. We have so much love for Mickey whose blocking shots like crazy in the last 3 minutes in the 4th quarter of  blowout games.

You would think we were on a 22 game winning streak looking at this. In reality we have lost 3 out of 10 with our only wins being to the Nets, Heat, Pistons, Wolves, Mavs, Pacers and Knicks. I mean for crying out-loud, the Bobcats have the same record as us. And we're not even in first in our own division.

Better luck next time.
Jaylen Brown will be an All Star in the next 5 years.

sorry man, that's not how this stuff works
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

I think we have a more positive outlook, than when we were without 2 of our starters, and not playing well.
I don't think anyone is satisfied in total with the C's.

But, I get your point...no outward signs of happiness allowed.

The next game we should lose if everything is negative and this sucks is at Houston.

We should win the next three. We should beat Detroit and Sacramento at home and Philly on the road.

Then our record could be 13-7. That would have us up to a 53 win pace. Brad Stevens' teams get better as each year continues. It's all good. We just have to avoid injuries and we are in the mix all year and every year.

While so many were whining and complaining, Danny finished the rebuild and now we are an NBA force.

Not entirely, I still think the C's are another star away from being an "NBA Force", whether it's through trade, or the draft.

Yes, the tanking is over but the rebuild is not 100% complete, but we should be done by this summer (whether it's picking using the Nets pick or trading that pick for another star).

Teams never stay the same. Everything becomes a constant rebuild. Golden State basically rebuilt their team quite a bit. They added Durant and lost a lot of guys.

You are correct we probably need one more Danny chess move, unless this is about waiting a couple years for young players to figure it out.

I see Yabusele, Zizac, Nader, Jaylen Brown, Terry Rozier. Those guys are so young. Marcus Smart is still very young.

I am willing to be patient. I'd rather wait it out then possibly get fleeced for a Demarcus Cousins. Danny can wait for the next Durant and then pounce. Or it looks like Brooklyn might get us another top three pick. At least top eight, probably top five.

I think Danny's problem is he would have to give up too much to get the missing third of a Big Three. We have Horford, and Isaiah and Bradley add up to another with my thinking. Maybe Danny should trade for Noel. He could be the missing piece. Horford's solid for center defense, but he is like KG and can't do it alone. What Amir offers on defense is too similar to Horford imho. I don't like them starting together.

Crowder/Jaylen Brown is a great SF combo which can only improve. I believe in Jae Crowder. I think Brown is showing he is a raw rookie. I'd still let him back up Jae. Let him work through it.

Same with Terry. His shooting is amazing. I didn't see that coming.

Isaiah is the truth also. His name is biblical, as are his drives to the hoop and overall magnificence on offense. He is very special, as is Horford.

Bradley and Crowder are special.

Amir just turned 29? He is not carrying his weight if I must complain.
