Momma told me not to come GDT

I think Wiggins should have been pulled tonight in the 4th. After the first of the two awful drives when we still had the lead. I actually think he may have been tired tonight, cue the Thibs coaching controversies. This was by far the worst yet. You can never get complacent, that's pro sports. Where does the hustle come from on this squad? It is insane.

What a bunch of losers, big time choke job.

This team gets up and they start taking dumb shots and forgetting to play d. Then it gets in their head. A bunch of choke artists. I don't see how Thibs won't try to get a proven winner in here. It's pathetic.

It's pretty amazing how when they hit a rough stretch with their offense, everything just falls to pieces. I've never seen a team give up leads in such a lightning-quick fashion.

I'm starting to wonder if Thibs needs to resort to some drastic measures. I might actually agree with Cool on the idea of throwing Tyus Jones out there.

I sure hope Wig was sick or has some excuse for the effort he put out there tonight. If not that was one of the least professional performances I've ever seen. On defense he wouldn't even get in the way of anyone by accident. His body language indicated he didn't even want to be there. Maybe I'm so pissed because I like the guy so much. But that was complete bullshit on his part.

I thought Al Horford was the perfect counterpoint to the losing mentality of our young guys. His defense was terrific, he was scrapping for rebounds, making good decisions, in the middle of a lot of the good stuff happening. Our guys just shriveled at the first sign of adversity.

We didn't get a single offensive rebound off all those missed shots! Where is the hustle!?

Celtics play so small. You could easily squeeze in Tyus there even at SG.

Until Wiggins, KAT, and LaVine realize that you actually have to get your hands a little dirty when you play basketball, this team is going no where. When shots aren't going down, you have to claw and scratch your way through it - dive for loose balls, take a charge, get an offensive rebound. I didn't see any of that! All these three want to do is make the big sexy play. Not good enough!

Every starter played at least 38 minutes. Thibs...

This is exactly it. They're 3 Italian sports cars, they look great until they're broken down on the side of the road.

I like that analogy! You look at these teams on paper - Boston, Memphis, etc. - and there is nothing special about them. They are just gritty, get-after-it kind of teams. F-150s? Jeeps? Whatever it is, it ain't us!
