Game Thread: Celtics At Milwaukee Bucks, November 30,2013

[Brahmsian]

Milwaukee is the worst team in the NBA.

By far.

And they're destroying Boston.

Wow, things are worse than I thought.

Re-building years are never fun, but perpetual mediocrity is the price of trying too hard to avoid them.

 

[HammerDown]

They're making it interesting.

You need MORE THAN ONE good player to win banners.

Outsmarting the opposition works more consistently than tanking, comprende?

Agreed but you need that one player to attract other good players to join the team. We can disagree on this but all the better teams have resulted in drafting that elite player.

 

[Brahmsian]

Thank goodness the Celtics are TRYING however bad the situation gets!

See you next game.

Ya and being middle of the pack on the edge of making playoffs does not expedite the situation fast.

Your coach looks like a ballboy stole a suit.

He's not a fashion model so I don't give a bleep about how he looks!

Does he have what he needs between the ears is what I want to know.

No doubt he's very intelligent as it pertains to basketball. As are a million other men in this country. But I don't think he'll ever get the respect of NBA veterans or find a place in this league. He was a sacrificial lamb for Danny Ainge and nothing more. He'll coach this season and next and then go back to college would be my guess.

And that's why we gave him a 6-year contract

Celt fans where so sure they had a win tonight....dumb asses!!

 

[BobGnarly]

Honestly, I'm never sure of a win. No matter who I'm rooting for and who they are playing. Too many variables. This year I'm not expecting to win many games, so I sure as hell wasn't expecting a win in MIL on a back-to-back. But I sure do find it strange that Lakers fans seem to know what Celtics fans are thinking.

A coach who knows he's taking on a rebuilding program should know that a bad 1st year won't cost him his job.

Coaching merry-go-rounds rarely produce anything desirable.

 

[LAKERSUSCBAM]

Maybe he'll surprise folks if team turns it around...even Cavs hired an NBA caliber coach. Still miffed why THE Boston Celtics brass went to the college level to get a HC - if it were a Williams or Coach K I could see it but Stevens did what exactly to earn a 6 year contract??

It was a great night for the Green in the evaluation phase of the rebuild. Sully had a monster night, and his per is heading north of 20. It looks like he is free of all back issues from the surgery, which slowed him down his senior year and rookie year. Remember folks, he was suppose to be a top 5 player, but the back slid him to the 20's.

In the +/- he and Green were solid again, and Crawford (who Danny got for a ACL damaged Barbosa), is also staying strong.

To me, as they decide who to keep, who to trade, who to dump, you have to think the Brazilian Rain Forest continues to be a no show.

We need them to develop the young players. Eager to see Kelly O back and developing his game.

 

[LAKERSUSCBAM]

I see you're still trying to justify Ainge's strategy...LOL

 

[LogicMan]

As he states, his strategy is to build assets. Your going to learn in the years ahead just how important that is.

And will it guarantee that you will win another title in the next 25 years ?? NO it wont, once Raja Rondo get's traded or leaves later you're done, nobody wants to play in Boston & it's no secret Ainge is the biggest joke in all NBA GM's, it's just plain laughable.

Hey if you want to defend him & it helps you sleep at night then good for you, but don't be surprised when the years go bye & you're still at the bottom of the Barrel.

Laker fans WISH there was such a guarantee, but realistic ones know there is not, never has been, and never will be.

We Laker fans no their is no guarantee & understand it's part of the game, but at least Lakers management has done a far better job then the Celtics over the past 32 years, but this is not about the Lakers or their fans, we are talking about Ainge here don't change the subject. I'm just clearly explaining to you that Ainge is just blowing smoke to Celtic fans. His a horrible GM...FACT!!
