Yuck.

Most of our back court looked pretty good. Bradley played well, I don't blame him or Smart because they couldn't stop 6'9" Durant. Rozier had his moments. IT had a horrible shooting night but got his points at the line. They combined to do a good defensive job on Curry. Thompson, however, was another story. Hey Danny! How about drafting a TALL guard for a change?

Our front court, however, sucked. NOBODY looked good. Brown looked lost out there. Maybe if he hadn't 6'7" Jaylen Brown could have played 6'9" Kevin Durant instead of Brad asking 6'2" Avery Bradley and 6'4" Marcus Smart to do it. Brown missed numerous defensive assignments. His head is exploding, the game is still way too fast for him. Amir and Kelly and Zeller got to watch Zaza Pachulia give them a little grief. How sad. How pathetic.

We defend, but we can't shoot. Gerald Green is a waste of space on the roster. For a scorer he can't score.

IT blasted his teammates and coaches (Brad?) for "giving up". Maybe if we hit our open shots there would have been no reason to.

Jaylen Brown played alot better than Olynck....we need Crowder and Horford.

We need to purge the roster of Zeller and KO.

Golden State revealed many many flaws of this current Celtic team. It was painful to watch. Here are my thoughts.

Let's look at the following flaws that will keep this team from advancing forward.

Horford and Crowder or no Hordford and Crowder........... this team has a number of fundamental flaws that Danny has not addressed or tried to address but could not get a deal done.

Small back court > At point guard IT is a freak player at his size and is a scoring machine and is not afraid to drive into the paint to score.......probably our only player who does so on a consistent basis and who can create his own shot. His short comings ...please forgive the pun.... is his height and is a liability on defense...................this could be overlooked if you had a larger 2 guard who has some height...............but AB at 6'2" is very short for today's 2 guard position. A great defensive player but still below the average at that position which puts pressure on you forwards to help out on taller players IT is guarding.

Crowder as our small forward is a great player but again slightly below today's modern small forward height.

Front court > Horford was a good sign but he should be playing PF position and not center. He would give the Celtics great height at PF and versatility at that position. Johnson at PF is too short for the modern day player at PF position and at center is so overmatched by larger players.

Zeller at center is a complete waste of time. He has no center moves to create his own shot and is not aggressive at rebounding ........I'll call him our snowflake.

KO....now who is he?.....not a center...........not a PF.........he cannot create his own shot and when he does he looks ridiculous. He has regressed over the last 3-4 games....also another snowflake!

No outside shooting..... too few players that cannot create their own shot........too small a team.

One positive....Brad has them hustling and not throwing in the towel....but it takes al lot out of players and a team as a whole because you just cannot do it night in and night out..... the team will tire quickly and fade in tight games and toward the spring time as a long season gets longer as the playoffs approach.

Negative note on Brad....Young had a great game scoring 13 points.....then he see's little action the next few games......what gives!

Moves need to be made ....... now or next summer for sure..............it would be great to get a look at some of the Euro players we drafted....they look really good.

Danny get your ass in gear and start weeding out the have-nots on our team.
