Game 11: Celtics (6-4) @ Suns (2-8), 7:00pm

[bwgood77]

You used to provide some valuable reasonable input. Much less so at this point.

This has to be pure anger/emotion (crime of passion!). Because if you're comparing Koko to Hunter or saying Earl Watson was better than Koko, you're not making any sense.

9 out of 10 times Earl Watson's Suns would destroy this team by double digits. That's just a fact.

[Calvin Klein]

I wish they would allow me to curse here because some of you people are pure idiots. Stop blaming Anderson,Canaan and Booker. The main reason we lost this game is because we have a clueless and soft C and a arse clown coach

Anderson is pure garbage and Canaan is a G-League point guard.

I will continue to blame them until they are both gone.

How can someone blame a goddamn rookie C but not two vets?

I think it's more overall frustration with his lack of effort and aggressiveness than blaming him on the losses. He is the number 1 overall pick, the one we've been waiting for years. He looks so passive out there. Like he only does what comes natural to him. No hustle, no defense, keeps passing the ball when he should attack.
It seems all the rebounds he gets are the ones with no one around him.

[denial]

Don't agree that this falls entirely on Igor. Maybe some of the offensive sets, but the guys on the floor still need to run them.

And flat out, Ayton is god awful on d. In OT Kyrie would start driving, take a half beat, and Ayton would rotate back onto his man even though he was way the f out of the play at that point, leaving Kyrie an open lane. Canaan had the opposite issue though. Last play he over helped and left his man wide open after the switch.

The guys need to do the small things before we can start just blaming the coach wholesale.

Yeah, not sure why so many people fail to see this.

People being fickle. You'd think ten years of getting our asses kicked would make us tougher. I see nothing but building blocks and a bright future.

[MrMiyagi]

Agree with it all except putting in Bender. That's just crazy talk man. Have you seen that guy? He is not the answer to anything, except, "who used to play in the NBA but now plays in Eastern Europe?"

I don't know, players on Koko's "you've got to earn it list" seem to be doing much better than those vets he gave the benefit of the doubt to (Bridges, Okobo). Might as well give Bender a try too.

[lilfishi22]

You're crazy if you don't think a star PG or even capable starting level PG wouldn't have help us keep the lead. It was clear Booker just didn't have anymore to give after the first few minutes of OT

Just not $20M/year Rozier

I think we can do a liiiiiitle bit better than Rozier for twenty million dollars a year

Fake news.

[TeamTragic]

Neither are true winners I'd stick with Caanan & Booker as they blossom into a beautiful flower.

[KLEON]

How does the most gifted big man on the court disappear at times? Does he like basketball? Arizona fans, chime in? Why is he not engaged at times?

This dude aint gifted,he's soft and one of most pathetic defender I've ever seen

Ayton has ADS (Amare Defense Syndrome)

He makes Harden look like Tony Allen

he gave him a try. It was on tv. it was not a good thing.

[lonea]

I'm not sure how much adjustment the coach could have made.

Who else you could trust to put in the final 5 minutes?

For sure as hell not JJ, hes a turnover machine.
Bridges? Meh
Okobo? I'm not sure if he's better or Ulis... The ball just sticks
Anderson? He's slow as sht on D

Overreacting here but I'd fire Igor tonight if I could. He isn't even mad at the press conference. R u kidding me?

Yes, overreacting. Had you known before the game we'd take them to OT, you might feel differently.

Yeah. It's the manner in which we lost and how 0 adjustments were made. It was so predictable how they would be able to chip away if we kept running the clock down taking dumb shots, meanwhile they had a layup line and open 3s on the other end. Frustrating doesn't even explain it

[RaisingArizona]

Love me some Rebecca Black :heart:

[lilfishi22]

Wall and Butler. **** it! Don't care. Make the playoffs and see what happens

Damn Sarver's been lurking these forums on this burner account for a long time lol

[SunsRback4Good]

I'll only say this once:

WE NEED A PG WE NEED A PG WE NEED A PG WE NEED A PG WE NEED A PG WE NEED A PG WE NEED A PG WE NEED A PG WE NEED A PG WE NEED A PG WE NEED A PG WE NEED A PG WE NEED A PG WE NEED A PG WE NEED A PG WE NEED A PG WE NEED A PG WE NEED A PG WE NEED A PG WE NEED A PG WE NEED A PG WE NEED A PG WE NEED A PG WE NEED A PG WE NEED A PG WE NEED A PG WE NEED A PG WE NEED A PG WE NEED A PG WE NEED A PG WE NEED A PG WE NEED A PG WE NEED A PG

This board seems to overreact just a little bit.

SERENITY NOW!!!! HOOCHIE MAMMY!!!

Ayton has to get back to Al Horford at the 3 point line though. He can certainly do a better job, but if he sticks to Kyrie then it’s a wide open Horford 3. Kyrie is difficult to defend, but none of the point guards on this team can guard anyone right now either.

Yes, this was our best played game this year...better than the Memphis game despite results. Maybe not better than the Dallas one but that's about it. Making serious progress.

I think he is going to be really good, but right now he is soft soft soft soft soft.... he needs a year in the weight room and a year at Shaq academy teaching him how to man up and how to dunk and rebound and intimidate little guys...
