Sad Times For A Proud Team

I know that as a Laker fan, I should be laughing, but the Boston Celtics continue a dubious franchise record, losing their 16th consecutive game. Red Auerbach is rolling over in his grave. Sad times in Beantown.

I grew up hating the Celtics, Bird, McHale and the whole bunch. I'm surprised that there hasn't been more talk of Danny
Ainge's role in all of this as the GM.

I am crying inside and out...... This is by far the lowest point for the franchise that I am aware of. Please put Pierce back on the hardwood, even injured, we might pull out a W and end this misery.

As a Celtics fan, this time sucks.

I read an interesting opinion on it the other day, and it was talking about the Celtics having a lot of young kids, a lot of guys who played a lot of AAU ball and actually, so much that wins/losses don't really mean that much to them, because to them it's just a game, not anything important. Talking about the lack of leadership, the lack of anybody to make them realize that each game should be important. Honestly, I don't expect them to rush Pierce back because they'll think that they can get the #1 choice if they don't and can make a big splash next year.

Bring on Durant...... Or Robert Parrish Jr (Greg Oden) I just realized that they both looked like they were 50, Parrish was close but Oden looks that way at 19. I will gladly take Kevin Durant or Baby Chief to start off next season. [img]/LDPforum/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/beer1.gif[/img]
