Magic beaten us once already and our road record is below average. Need to start performing against these non playoff bound teams.

Go Celtics!!!

We need to start stringing along a number of wins.
60 Wins = would take us going 35-6 the rest of the way.

We need to secure at least 2nd seed.
These are the things that we have to strive for.

I can't believe matching the 2008 title team's 66-16 record is still in play. Wow. 41 straight wins, here we go. Sadly, we will lose game 1 of our 1st round matchup against the Hornets.

Regular season. They all count as one. However if the team is truly angry at their lackluster performance in Miami, they should show up with something to prove. We see what they look like when they get up for a game like against Indy

I think so too unless we get Rossed. Orlando just doesn’t have the firepower to hang with us if the Celtics are making their shots

Noone can really keep up with us if we make our shots. The problem is were a jump shot heavy team. Some nights everything falls and the games are easy but some nights they dont. Thats why we need to be able to get easy lay ups and free throws if we can help it. It greatly increases our floor

If the 30+ assist, 7 guys in double figures team shows up, we win easily. If the me-me-me, shoot-the-first-shot-that-shows team shows up, we lose another game we should win.

A bounce-back win after a terrible loss is easy. What I wanted to see was how they followed up a blowout win. Missed opportunity after that glorious win against the Pacers. We just haven't reached a level of consistency of really good teams yet. Health is a big factor in that. At least three rotation players haven't been at ideal playable condition. Let's hope we have the full gang back by ASB.

I want this team to play like they did against the Pacers every night for 82 games do or die including the playoffs. The ball movement and defense was where it needs to be consistently in that game.

Bucks & Sixers lost.
Pacers & Craps will win.

Losses:
Raps & Bucks - 12
Pacers - 14
Celtics & Sixers - 16

Winning time is now.
And I mean NOW, mother ****.
