Nice game plan.

Hey idiot you do realize that Paul was getting doubled pretty much every time he got the ball leaving Bass or KG wide open usually on the mid-range jumpers that they're best known to make.

Yup. Plus Iggy, like Deng, plays Paul great.

This attitude makes no sense to me. They're a good team and they played well. Give them credit and don't be pissy if they're given credit.

So the best way to honor a fallen teammate is to lay down and quit?

I wouldn't want to be on THAT team.

That smacks of selfishness.

Pretty much fits our season........

Jesus Christ give it a rest already. There is a time to bash this team when it is not playing well. Tonight is not that night They are an old team, they played last night, MP may has a major injury and half their roster is injured. There is only so much one team can overcome.

Despite them being 2-0 against us this season, I think we could beat Philly in the playoffs.

You think? I know. They are nothing special..like I said, we had them on the ropes a couple times, had full control of the game..and boom. MP with the freak accident, Bradley with the ankle..**** happens. We are still going to win this division..

You can't win the game when the other team gets 18 more shots than you. Screw efficiency, volume counts too. Shoot 48 percent from the floor against best defensive team in the league and we struggle for 90?

Got to find some way to rebound. Pierce got 9 tonight. Is Garnett supposed to get 20? Goodness sakes is our roster thin.

Could, yes, but could lose just as easily. Doesn't matter as the odds of that series happening are 1-in-a-helluvalot.

I could care less about winning the division. Our priority is to be as healthy as possible, nothing else matters

EFFFF them and Doug Collins for picking Hollins to shoot those free throws--after one of our players almost died on the court...CLASSLESS....so SCREW them---!

Hope Pietrus is all right. Had the game in balance. Just not enough horses out there.

Just watched my favorite team quit tonight and it turned my stomach.

Glad to see you guys are fine with that.

Goodnight.

I agree with your top paragraph, but give us Wilcox, JO, and Jeff Green and maybe things are better? We're just snakebitten this year. Sucks but true.

I gotta agree with that there. Get the 6 seed and healthy over balls to the wall and the 4th seed.

I would prefer health and the 7 seed over tired and 4th seed after fighting to the death. We got to beat MIami or Chicago anyway. Mind as well play them while we are fresh.

Fair enough - some nights he's done a lot in garbage time, some nights (like tonight) nothing - either way I don't think is a great indicator of what if anything he can give us long term. I think Doc obviously doesn't trust his D/knowledge of 'our system' right now, so until or unless that changes a couple minutes here or there in blowouts doesn't really mean much IMO.

Healthy as possible? We just lost JO, Wilcox and I'm thinking Pietrus, for the rest of the year in one week. How can we be healthy? We are never going to be healthy this year.. I could care less about the season now. I just hope MP is ok..the Celtics have no chance at anything..
