Are you crazy. Rondo started his post move with like 5 seconds on the clock and you blame Bass :lol:


He was open underneath the basket. Gets ball. Fails to take shot. There was about 3 seconds left when he got the ball. How is it on Rondo that he did not shoot it? If he goes straight up it is an easy layup. The only reason the defense got to him is that he did not shoot it.

This is nothing new for Bass. He doesn't think ahead out there.

The Hawks are missing a lot of FTs.

Team has played terrible. It doesn't matter who you play giving away the ball like they are.

They have like 4 turnovers on people not catching the ball on flat out basic passes. Fatigue is a weak excuse for that. Total lack of concentration.

I think I can honestly say that is the first time I have seen a foul called for gently caressing another player's knee(Rondo on JJ).

Not only is this a scheduling deficit, but Josh Smith is hitting pull up 20 footers.

Horrible 1st half as expected but still within striking distance. Celtics getting nothing on offense expect from KG and Bass.

What a dumb freaking play to end the quarter. Paul Pierce is on the floor, so lets get a jumper for Brandon Bass? Do we play the game to get Rondo assists?

Bass getting a wide open shot he hits all the time is a bad play :lol:

I just don't get Doc. Why would he think that running that horrible offense would be good idea? The whole "let''s pass the ball 6 times times" BS. Just set Rondo picks, pull your heads out of your asses, and MOVE. Instead it is station to station crap. "We gotta get it to this guy" stupidity. Just play basketball.

Meh bit of a let dowb which is what was expected. Hopefully they can get their act together in the second half.

Bass wide open from 14 feet is a great look. Is your life that bad that you have to come into these game threads to make weirdly defensive posts about Paul Pierce and tearing down the other stars on the team? Put that energy into the positive realm, my man.
