Celtics rotations are brutal at times and how many times do you need to see a team hit a 3 before you get your team to adjust.That a boy Stevens..

I'm no fan of Fultz but I think it's been verified that this was more of a nervous twitch than anything else.

AD final update: NBA informed NO if they didn't play AD, they would be fined 100K per game, after the potential option of simply sending him home.....

What a cluster. NBA players out of control. Get millions to play in a professional league and still act like children. League is all about three pointers and no effort away from home. Tough to watch.
It's an LA DH at the Garden
so far we are 3 for 4....
Kings are here this afternoon;
Doc and the Clippers are here tonight

The worst part is they still want more!
Lebron with all his “narrative” garbage. Dude, it ain’t aau. You have rules to follow and you don’t just get to play with all your buddies. Like anything, if you’re making that much money you’re going to have to sacrifice something. NBA players refuse to sacrifice anything. If they have it their way, there’s no salary cap, no max contract and essentially free agency at will.
At some point the NBA needs to draw a hardline in the sand and simply say this is all were willing to give. You just can’t have a league that’s run by the players.
I’m also of the opinion that the media is way too hard on these guys so I understand some of their gripes, but players need to play, GMs need to GM and owners need to own. When those roles start falling into each other is when it gets dicey. With all due respect to even the best players, the league goes on without them.

Good grief - they are 14 games above .500, have the 5th best record in the East and the 8th best record in the NBA. Yeah - they totally suck.

So I was listening to Ryan’s Johnston yesterday and, for me, he hit the nail on the head.
The NBA has created a product that is more entertaining off the court than on it.
I watch none of the games, yet I’m intrigued to tune into Felger and Mazz to hear the latest drama about tampering, who wants out of where and so on.
I can’t help but take a step back and laugh when you have a league that’s so much about the top end talent where Ainge masterfully maneuvered to acquire the pieces he did and it still may not yield fruit because of egos and player collusion.

Would you rather me say they’re mediocre? Would that do it for you?Good grief - they are 14 games above .500, have the 5th best record in the East and the 8th best record in the NBA. Yeah - they totally suck.
Just lost a 20 point lead to the Lakers and a 30 point lead to the CLIPPERS on back to back nights.
Not sure how you can watch this team and think “wow, that’s really a force to be reckoned with in the playoffs”
I'M with yaGood grief - they are 14 games above .500, have the 5th best record in the East and the 8th best record in the NBA. Yeah - they totally suck.
Pretty sure they have the best record against the good teams in the east out of all the teams in the east.
It’s not a talent issue for them. It’s a focus/effort issue. The Playoffs can sometimes inherently fix that. They show up and compete with/beat the best teams
Now if they play selfish basketball once the playoffs run around I’ll be peeved. I don’t think it will happen though- they’ve already had a pretty long stretch this year where they were moving the ball like crazy and dropping big numbers on teams. I just jinxed it w a post in this thread lol

yeah, this right now is frustration based off all the noise around AD wanting out, and Kyrie shutting the press off with ask me after July, throw in the TDL 'distraction'

This is considered acceptable?Good grief - they are 14 games above .500, have the 5th best record in the East and the 8th best record in the NBA. Yeah - they totally suck.
I am no NBA expert but with the talent they have they should be alot better than this. They were better than this last year with lesser talent

The Celtics Over/ Under this season was 60 wins
They where massive favorites to win the Eastern Conference preseason at -160
this season has been horrible so far...based on expectations they do suck this year
If this team doesn’t make the nba finals it is a huge failure

Not sure if Gordon Haywards ankle is still bad but averaging 10.8 points a game down from 21 in Utah is a huge drop off.
