Celtics need someone else to hit shots other than Brown

Team needs either Pritchard or White to be a second scoring option and neither are rising to the challenge

And Detroit pulls ahead.

I imagine GM Brad being pleased and Coach Joe very unhappy.

Well, win or lose this season, at least we know we have another solid rotation piece going forward in Hugo.

Brown 8 for 13, everyone else are 15 for 39 for 38%. Some one has to step up and hit a shot. Hopefully better in the 2nd half

Looks like the bench D is hurting them more than the still uneven starting O this game?

We are bad
a 20-25 wins team right now (at best)

DET are big, athletic and strong. We had problems playing them for a few years now. Right now we are small, weak and unathletic

In parenthesis is where I had each team ranked in the east coming into the season:

Celtics (8) vs Sixers (7)
Celtics (8) vs Knicks (2)
Celtics (8) vs Pistons (4)

So if we go 0-3, no big deal..we're simply losing to teams who are better than us.

And losing means we get a better draft pick :)

I want Cam Boozer.
Nothing wrong with having a different opinion - as long as it's done respectfully. It'd be lame if we all agreed on everything :)

Our starting backcourt is completely incapable of creating an advantage on the court. They also cannot consistently run a proper Pick & Roll. And if PP isn't hitting shots, I'm not sure what his purpose is.
and that's "MR. Irrelevant" to you!!

Hey, Rico didn't miss a shot in his 5 minutes--and Jordan didn't get any fouls for the half!

Same ish in every game, so far, but I’m going to let it go like everyone else seems to do.

Maybe an overreaction. Maybe not. I'm ready for JB for Trae Young rumors. Our guards cannot and will not drive off screen/roll. They miss rollers all the time. And now without JT to spoonfeed them looks they look fairly pedestrian.
