I know already that the narrative coming out of this is going to be that what happened to Isaiah's sister threw the whole team out of sorts and therefore you can't draw any major conclusions from this series.


I feel very bad for Isaiah and what his family is going through.

That is not an adequate excuse for getting hands down flat out beaten by an eighth seed.

Right now it looks like they're gonna get swept or lose in 5.

Unacceptable, I don't care what the excuses are.

I already thought that after Game 1. Earlier in this thread I asked how the sunshine-and-lollipops optimists are gonna spin being down 0-2; well, this is how. Every freakin' year there's an excuse.  But don't worry—next year we'll win fifty-FIVE games (and still lose in the first round).
There are two kinds of people: those who say to God, 'Thy will be done,' and those to whom God says, 'All right, then, have it your way.'

Um, that's not the narrative at all.

Once again, I wish the rest of the team had heart like Smart. Maybe then we wouldn't suck so bad.

No heart. No pride.

Why Rozier when we have shooters on the bench?

Rebounding and still not enough shooting, but...

Marcus Smart wrote an article about Isaiah being the heart and soul of this team and Isaiah's heart got ripped out right as this series was about to start. Its a big deal.

Yeah, the narrative is "Celtics suck."

Love how Amir is so into the game on the bench. Too bad he hasn't been into either game in this series when he's been on the court.

Avery please stop sucking.

If he isn't hurt then he is stinking it up in the post season.
Once you are labeled 'the best' you want to stay up there, and you can't do it by loafing around.

Smart is made for playoff basketball in the NBA. He may be the only one that really is on this team.

 Trade everyone but Marcus.


Overreacting, but I just love his passion.
