Ok well at least thats the end of that stretch of the schedule, I think most people knew we would have a major fall back during it.
Luckily we started so strong that we are still in a decent position after a 6 game losing streak. If we can't get back to that '10-3' team during this easier part of the schedule, I think SVG is going to make some trades

I'm just happy this game is over and we can turn the page.

The team looked uncomfortable the whole game.

Did Brad Stevens game plan that well?

this game pissed me off. I felt like the Celtics played bad enough to lose but we somehow played even worse.

AB didn't score a point in the second half.

There has to be a way to avoid these crazy droughts.

We really need to beat up on some bad teams to build up some confidence again. Just a rough stretch here against good teams that's broke our confidence out there.

I knew we would have a rough record against this rough stretch but damn. I think we get back going now and thankfully we had enough wins to survive it if we can back on track now that the schedule lightens up.

celtics played good defense but we straight up missed a bunch of good looks, especially reggie.

i have a feeling it would be an entertaining playoff series between these two teams.

And no way is Ellenson worse than Boban on defense nor as inept as Moreland on offense. Whatever Moreland offers on defense does not make up for his utter lack of any semblance of offense.

Stanley Johnson lays an utter egg after his 30+ minute powow with SVG yesterday after practice. Hmmmm. Has he finally checked out on SVG? I hope so.

It sounds like it wasn't a good game at all. A good game for us Pistons fans was beating the Celtics in Boston when they were 18-3. Both teams played extremely well; that was the definition of a good game.

I get it. But if good game doesn't apply and you're not going to come here and say bad game, then just maybe...
