This team is suffering from an emotional let down.

I think it's suffering from short-term memory loss.

Two weeks worth? That sounds more like a condition. Perhaps a shrink?

And realize I'm in the moment right now, I'm not this over-the-top negative about the situation overall.

a team called the "Wizards" is making Boston it's bittchezz right now....this is pathetic how we're playing with NO sense of urgency---on cruise control...NOBODY taking it to the hoop.

Pierce is bringing it big-time on defense. And has much of the year. Don't want to let that go unnoticed or unrecognized despite my recent run of criticism about his offense.

I think the KG energy to start the season has sapped this team after the big Detroit win. We were playing at an almost playoffs like atmosphere. Now its like when a husband comes home and finds his wife playing bedroom snooker with someone else.

It wasn't like in the "old days", but this dunk shows Tony Allen's confidence is back. I think he was as happy as we were after landing.

I'd like to know why they stopped moving the ball around the perimeter quickly? That was how they were beating teams so badly. Now, they are standing. Making one pass and nobody cutting, screening. It is pretty stagnant right now.

Seriously, how much longer before some of you come around to appreciating that the team is in dire need of what Tony brings to the table, despite his flaws? I know there are a good many that do, but, the scapegoating posse is still quite strong.

Tony will help. You can see him building confidence. That being said, he is not a PG. I'm not saying we need to sign another one just to do so, but putting TA in that position plays away from his strengths, which you just saw with that dunk.
