We’re so **** soft. Every game is the same weak start no juice come back sort of then it’s just easy bucket after easy bucket down the stretch for whichever team we play and no semblance of a plan on offense just heave **** at the basket.

Can’t believe I raced home again to watch that trash heap for 3 hours.

Need a new coach and a defensive playmaking pg.

At least give me the second one.

Jeez.

Tatum and brown feel like they have to do everything.
Smart feels like he needs to help by doing more than he should.

If the Celtics start the game off playing lazy and selfish then they won’t win many games. They give teams way too much confidence in the start of games that by the 4th quarter they have all the momentum while the Celtics keep chucking in desperation

How did this team win games last year? Hayward wasn’t a game changer and missed a lot of time. Has their motivation or whatever you call it really changed that much? Kind of wish there was fans to give them the boo’s they deserve.

Actually that wouldn't be too bad of a trade chip for the team, although Danny ain't making no trades.

There were actual people that thought Smart was going to fix this team lol. This team has much worse issues.

A lot better effort on defense. More ball movement on offense.

Hayward helped, too.

Our "stars" are a bunch of weak-minded pansies. None of them have that killer instinct that real stars have. You have to have that killer instinct to close out games like this. Sadly there's no one on this roster who has that.

Trade? You know better Danny would keep that pick and draft another grant Williams or Yabu type player thus wasting space and asset.
