I for one am not bailing but I also don't stick my head in the sand when there are obvious issues. The starters on this team need help from the bench (which they are not getting) otherwise the playoff season will be shorter than last year. Starter are carrying way too much of the load for the Celtics. They are wearing out.

Did someone say prophet? :P

I know, the truth hurts sometimes. I've seen enough games, actually all the games to know that Pierce, Ray, and KG aren't as good as they were 2 years ago. Some of you guys make it seem like we have to win a title every year or else it's not good enough. Win or lose, it doesn't change my life either way, it shouldn't change your either. I'll still be watching the game.

As of right now, this team needs help to have a chance at the title. No one around the league is even referring to PGA as the big 3 anymore. This current team isn't good enough to win a title IMO. No heart, no energy, bad coaching by Doc over the last month, and a lot of injuries. I know things can change, but it's not looking all that great.

We doesn't suck, he just shouldn't be playing over 25 minutes a game. Rasheed will be fine as a bench player. Davis should have been starting all this time and Wallace should have been coming off the bench.

The look on Pierce's face when they were showing the Celtics' bench near the end of the game said it all. He scored 16 in the first quarter and they still couldn't do it.

Id have to agree. I can deal with the celtics losing. I cant deal with the celtics not putting in the effort. The playoff team last year blew a series vs Orlando that they should have won. But i never for a second doubted their effort level. They gave 100% but simply were not a championship level team. THIS team is expecting to win simply because they are the Boston Celtics. That is unacceptable.

The bench wasn't the one that gave up the big lead in the 3rd quarter. Perkins played the worst game of the season, same for Ray. Pierce played the worst game of any half he has this year. He was on fire in the 1st hald and disappeared in the 2nd half.

Yeah, the truth hurts, but since what you said was pure bull, it doesn't hurt at all. :roll:
I'm not saying we HAVE to win a title..of course not..I'm just saying I hate little people who come around here making guarantees of what will and what won't happen because of the last 10 games we have played. When we won 11 straight, 14 out of 15 and when we beat Orlando out in Orlando without Pierce, everybody was thrilled saying this team was great and this and this and that..now we lose a couple, and we have no chance at a ring. Like wtf people..can't we just watch the **** season play out? Why do people feel like they HAVE to predict things? I hate that ****...Cleveland didn;t look all that great in the 1st 10 games of the season either..look at them now.. :roll:

I'd much rather lose because of no effort, than because of no talent. At least we know once these bitches start trying we will win..that's easy to fix, and that's the reason why we shouldn't panic. When this team starts to put in the effort, and still loses, than ok..we will probably be done. That's not the case yet.
WHAT THEY GON’ SAY NOW? ‎ THANK YOU TRUTH!
