Despite its record, this team STINKS... just no energy, no sense of urgency, horrendous execution..they will get mauled on Wednesday if they play like this.

The Celtics to me look like a real tired team. Doc may have to get Pollard, Powe, Scalabrine, Pruitt etc. more involved over the next week or two. Can't wear them out before the playoffs even get here.

I apologize for giving you a hard time on the Wizards board, darrendaye.

Not trying to start anything, but a serious question: What's going on with Boston? They're not swinging the ball or doing much draw and kick. That kills the Wizards.

Washington's defense is not THIS good.
The Wizards shoukd have drafted Derik Queen

I told you so :banghead:

KG looking for guys for a good 5-6 seconds and nobody moving.

Don't be silly. You mean they stink right now. Obviously the team doesn't stink. You can't win 30 of 35 games if you do.

IMO, other than Tony Allen, no one cuts to the basket off the ball. Pierce has done it once or twice tonight, but only to try to open KG for an isolation, not a hard cut looking for a score inside. Rondo has also stopped penetrating. That's my take. And, no problems about the other night, I know people get "troll" sensitive, especially considering the number of Celtic trolls roaming the boards.

Chocolate, btw, much props for even recognizing the problems, on the opposing team much less. We still have guys on here in denial or oblivious to his reality right now.
