We saw the team without IT and now we see it without AB. We clearly need both to be a top 3 eastern conf team.

We've been thoroughly outclassed.

8 minutes to go but it just feels over... the C's can't sustain any run.

Horford is the reason our defense sucks

Why play like a team on offense when Isaiah can over-dribble, stagnate the offense and jack up a shot.

Even tho Brad admitted the small 3 guard lineup stats are bad it's still his goto lineup

Yeah, I think Brad is a bit too soft with our guys. They certainly need called out after this loss, assuming they don't play 12 minutes of actual good basketball. There's just no passion or drive in this team anymore. Certainly entitled and not nearly as good as they think they are.

This guy's posts have been excessively negative every time I've checked out the game thread. It's quite early to be declaring this a loss.

I literally said "assuming they don't play 12 minutes of actual good basketball."

Honestly, I hope they come out and spank us the rest of the way. We don't need another win where we simply don't play hard for three quarters and just win in the fourth quarter. That's a major reason we've looked so lackluster at times this year, because we think we're much better than everyone else and can "flip the switch" whenever we need to. A win tonight like this would just compound the problem.

This team has a strong chance of being bounced in the first round with how they're currently playing. I think a little negativity and criticism of them is warranted.
