I Love You Celtics, But I Got To Do This
What the fuck?
The last fucking three games have been a fucking embarrassment. I was willing to give the Atlanta and Orlando games a pass if you beat the Lakers, however, you went ahead and fucked that one up. In all three games there have been some common trends, the lack of killer instinct and just pissing away the game at the end. When we won it, it was because our defense would stifle teams in the third quarter and we would cruise to victory. Now we just don't play defense in the second half and limp our way to the end of the game. I guess I'll start with the blame game.
Doc Rivers has been a terrible coach this year. Sure he has had injuries to deal with, but he plays this very safe offense and loses all the aggressiveness the Celtics had during the game. He basically has Rondo wait until there are 7 seconds on the shot clock and then begins the play. That normally results in a turnover, or a rushed field goal attempt.
The Big Three are too unselfish. Someone needs to shoot the ball 35 times a game again, and I'm looking at you Truth. Kobe Bryant told Phil Jackson he wants the damn ball for the last shot. You should be saying that also. I want Paul Pierce to shoot the ball in every clutch situation and never pass it up, like NEVER. I don't want Rasheed to take a last second three, and I want Ray to only shoot in emergency situations. Paul Pierce is one of the most clutch players of our generation and he had a chance to prove that against his hometown Lakers, but he passed the ball up to Ray and we all know what happened. I can't say much about Ray other than his skills are just declining and if he is to resign here, he may have to be a 6th man. And KG, I don't know what to say about him either, other than he lacks that fire he once had and it's pretty obvious.
I'm fine with everyone else on the roster and their roles. Everyone else is pretty much doing what they are supposed to do.
This Celtics team will not win the Championship by playing like this. No way, no how. I don't know if they need the all star game to recharge or what, but if this is a continued trend, we aren't making out of the second round.
Now start fucking playing.
