I say negative stuff about the team all of the time and point out weaknesses. There is a difference between doing that and just being unnecessarily negative and saying we have no chance of winning and crap like that.

2. Robert Smith is very real and his antics led him to be banned, several members of the board have IM conversations with him, and the reason I am writing this is he sent me an angry email about the post.

show me where I said we have no chance, point it out.
What's stupid to me is that if anyone on this team criticizes something that they see with the team, an individual, etc., they are immediately branded as a hater, disloyal fan, etc. That's just ridiculous. The whole entire business of putting a winning franchise out on the floor is a process of constant evaluation of who you are putting out on the floor and the product that they produce together. Sometimes that evaluation is going to be negative. It doesn't mean that you hate the team.

If you thought Jefferson or someone else had a great game and didn't mention enough of Pierce, he'd go nuts. I love Pierce and have stuck up for him over a thousand times, but it was interesting how far Smith took it.

And as for Pierce, I've always liked his game, I just never thought that he was the guy that would lead the Celtics to a championship. He's the only guy on our team who could have a game like he did game 7 against the Cavaliers, no question about it, but there is no way in hell that he would ever have been able to produce 16 games like that in the NBA playoffs and lead us to a championship.
