saw a tweet today saying the most likely outcome for us is 5th seed. The most likely outcome for the Celtics is also the 5th seed.

It’s that close.

our magic number is 6. I think theirs is 8. see odds at the site I referenced in NBA sticky thread. Boston has much lower chance at 4 than we do. if we win tonight and beat Boston this weekend, we'll be huge favorites for 4.

This is one of the most butt-ugly third quarters I've seen.

we have these droughts where we just can't put it in the ocean.

It's the norm with this team.

24-0... how is that possible?

We missed 14 shoots in a row...

Bogie says we get nervous when we don't need to be. I don't know whether that's the problem, but we sure lose our shooting touch particularly in 3rd quarters. actually, we have slow starts, too; so it is the 1st and 3rd quarters. the common thread is sometimes the first unit comes into the game ice cold.

I just did some quick research. Since March 7, CoJo is 9-50 from the field...that is 18% over the last 10 games.

How many games do you let a guy play 20+ minutes when he is shooting 18% from the floor? I understand Nate wanting to let CoJo play through his slump but playing him 20+ minutes seems too much at this point. Play him in the first half and see if he is showing signs of getting out of his slump. If he is not, don't play him in the second half.

Was going to go on my typical CoJo rant...but at this point, it's just embarrassing. No way he should be playing this many minutes. He is not contributing and defense is not what it used to be.
