Celtics (26-17) at Wizards (24-20) Game #44 1/24/17

Let's make this even better. Our future center that Danny refuses to trade for - 19 pts on 8-10 fgs, 3-3 FT, 7 rebs, 5 asts, 2 stl, 3 blks.

Yeah, but we don't need a big like that, do we Danny?

Great now Smart is fighting with an assistant coach. Now he will be untradeable

Hey, I see this as a good sign. At least they're showing emotion now, right? Hell, they were content with just getting ran out of the gym beforehand.

Maybe they'll all finally take a deep look at themselves and pull their heads out of their arses.

It's good to show emotion, but not to the extent that you argue with an assistant coach who's trying to give you advice and then almost fight him. That's a sh1tty attitude I'm sorry.

What advise? The coaching staff have terrible rotations in the last few games. They aren't excused for this pathetic outcome.

[MBunge]

You shouldn't overreact to a single game or even a few in a row.  The Warriors just lost to the Heat and the Cavs lost to a Browless Pelicans.  But I think it's fair to be very worried now.  The defense has fallen off a cliff this season and to have three pitiful efforts like this in a row defies explanation.

Frankly, I think the Sixers are leaning on keeping him now.

It's working with Noel-Embiid, and they have the cap space.

I agree...

if that really happened he should be suspended for a few games. You don't fight a coach.

At least Philly won today, thats always good.

They won without Embiid too, over the Clippers with Blake back. Pretty impressive.

That would suck.

I hate trading our guys but if we get Ball or Fultz someone has to go. I'm moving Smart for Noel. How do the Sixers say no to that.

In two years they will unseat LeBron ...if Embiid remains healthy.

More of the team should upset for getting punked by low class Washington team! Go Marcus!

They're not going to tie up 50 million in their center spot. Won't happen.

However, they might get a decent trade for him now, though. Danny should've pulled the trigger earlier.

yeah they are playing great and everything is clicking for them. Seems to me its a no-brainer for them to keep Noel now; Okafor seems to be at the root of the problem now, he doesn't bring much to the game that Embiid already cant do. Its hard to imagine Simmons has yet to play a game.

There wasn't any "fight." Emotions just got hot and there was a heated discussion. Not really a big deal after seeing it. That stuff happens when your team gets embarrassed like that.

I'm not sure I blame Smart if he's ticked.  He's always busting his behind on defense and watching the coaching staff let other players get away with dogging it.

Cleveland have lost two straight and are 2-5 in their last 7. Toronto are about to lose four straight. Including losses to Philly, the Suns and the Spurs without Leonard.

My point is, it could be worse...
