guess the C’s stayed up late watching the Lakers

impressive recent wins by Cavs and Lakers

team looked old, slow and gimpy; absolutely hated the demeanor out there; no fire

too many areas of concern to even list them – but our rebounding is awful, shot selection is poor, and Wallace can be a serious liability

But if you live by the Three….etc. And some bad calls. And the Hawks played there guts out. The Hawks got away with a lot but made the shots. We are still a work in progress.

Looks like we are out of gas… Doesn’t look like we gonna go all the way with team playing like this….

we’re not going to win anything if we continue like this

agree with all of the above. teams like the bulls,suns and hawks give us fits. I guess you can put orlando in there too. we can play better than we did tonight but this is a disturbing trend

PATHETIC game by the Celtics tonight

We did 2 years ago what we had to do to win 1 flag, after 20 years of irrelevance. We got our flag. We mortgaged our future to get that flag, but we got it. You really dont think there are going to be more flags with that same team, do you? Unless we start trading value for value; Not Scal and /or Tony and/ or Walker and/or any combination of members of our bench; we will enter our second irrelevant era. Age is the great equalizer; Value for value;you get what you pay for.

The hawks have given us fits before and will continue to do so until doc comes up with a solution. It’s painfully obvious that doc has no answers for the hawks or any one who plays that style of game. Time after time we got ran by for easys looks easy assists and extra chances. It didnt help that the ref’s let the hawks foul Paul on every drive, perk on every post up and on countless offensive plays the offensive foul should have been called but instead a Celtic got the foul called on them instead. It’s was ugly and disappointing. I think we should go will a faster pace when pauls out and perks out. Push tempo and let rondo or daniels draw fouls or create east shots for eddie ray sheed…etc. On a positive note kg looks reAl healthy. We the viewers at home are a little mad. The home crowd was silent all except for a few short stretches of half hearted noise. If you are a Celtic fan or you don’t feel like cheering all game to help out your team especiall in a rivalry game….sell your seats! Period then end!

Hopefully they make the right moves next season… I dont think they can get banner 18 this year playing like this.

Then maybe that would open up the three game for them, hit cutters, ect….They just seem to work so hard running of screens just for a shot!

is back to his old antics again…

team got up by 7 in the 3rd Q … and stopped playing

team got up by 6 in the 3rd Q … and stopped playing

team got within 2 … and 2nd unit completely screwed up the 4th Q; Wallace completely failed to show on pick and rolls and the Hawks walked right in for 6 footers

more than that, the 1st unit can’t seem to dominate a single 1st Q this year; that for me is the most telling stat (and rebound differential, which is negative for the first time in the last 2 years)

team was at home for 5 days, 3 practices, etc. and comes out and plays this badly; I can’t explain it; yes, the Hawks are energetic; good for them; but that doesn’t account for the Celtics horrible execution on both ends … and the loss of composure

PP looks like he has camped himself over at the sizzler a bit, in between games of shuffleboard. seriously, BOTH he and baby need to cool it. and to think PP and Kobe are so close i age yet so so so so so so different in everything else

Not only am I tired of reading your poorly used phrase but it’s not used proppedly. The term your looking for is “defensive stopper” that’s the phrase! Please no more ignorance. Also. Trading baby isn’t going to happen unless it includes another bigger name player. Lastly the only trade a celtics fan is willing to do right now is getting rid of TA GIDDENS SCAL (sorry) and maybe bill walker. Who else are we gonna trade. We just inked glen and sheed and daniels. The coach needs to do a better job of controling his team. Doc has got to statagize with the other coaches and players to figure out how everyone fits in. It’s been sloppy most nights. I know I’m watching each game. So no more trade advice and no more poorly used phrases. English people. English! We’re talking bout English!

No intensity like 2 yrs ago
What happened to the lock down D?
They got their rings and aren’t as hungry.
They need Tibideau to work on D
They need to think hard about whether they really want to be champs

let’s not get carried away. it’s only 1 game and it’s a marathon. we need to survive until it’s a halfcourt game in the playoffs. that being said, the hawks outplayed us and deserved to win tho they got away with murder with the refs’ non calls on their pushing off with the off hand on every drive to the basket. sheed takes 2 shots down low and hits them and avoids the paint the rest of the time. enough of this- he spreads the floor bull and get him down low more. eddie is in a slump and looked terrible.

I bleed green but your right! He could take anyone of your hawks off the dribble…fouls easy looks for everyone else. We saw a quick glimps in the fourth but that’s was it. Loosen the chains on him doc! Let him work…he creates easy offense for others…oh and post up sheed and kg for gods sake! No post offense at all… even with josh smith and horford and zazazzzzzza we should have been able to post up. Atleast a little bit…both those guy have lots of moves. They shouldn’t be shooting from 20+ feet out all the time. You don’t see horford or pau or Howard or bosh allways shooting 20+ foot j’s! It’s just a weapon they have to compliment their post game. Who is running this team? I’m embarassed! I am not pannicking but each starter needs too look in the mirror and see who they are. Paul I love ya bro….clutch…but only force shots when needed. Let others help you create…and if your not getting foul calls change your stratagy. Ray…sweetest money shot ever…but be more assertive look for your shot and if it’s not falling pump or head fake and drive and create.
Kevin…heart andsoul..healthy again…thug out once in a while hype up that lazy crowd!
Perk….keep doing what your doing…just box out better. Rondo…if doc won’t let u run free and we are struggling like tonight….do your thing till he takes you out…drive kick drive foul drive dunk drive assist drive layup! Few can check u! But none on the hawks!!! Can’t wait to hear doc squirm about not letting u go to work.

Get a grip. One game. Out rebounded. Second and third chance points. The officials decided to let just about anything go. Ball bounces for the other team sometimes and tonight was one of those nights.

Already 2 home losses in just 10 games. That’s quite a surprise! They gave up way too may 2nd chances.
