This team is not the best right now. They have some serious issue that need to be addressed. People are learning how to play them (zone) and our coaching staff and players apparently cannot figure out how to beat it.

A play for Ray Allen's three is not out of the question.

Heinsohn's speaking the truth; Rondo has playing dismal defense for the last month and is constantly getting taken advantage of by the other's teams point guard.

For a guy his quick, he really needs to just focus staying on his man.


Edit: Nice hustle by Pierce.

You guys desperately need a point guard, I never noticed it so much till tonight. Rondo is not near ready to run a team. How can you not average 10 assists a game with those three around you. :noway:

What sucks is that we get to read what Walker and his big melon head has to say about the celtics. They are not that good blah blah blah.

LOL. If he can not crap his pants, that would be an improvement.

Good thing we scored, but we brought the game clock under the shot clock.

Is it just me or has every OTHER team wants it more than the Cs?? Complacency has set in BIG time with this team.
