The Celtics have a legit shot to win it all this year if everyone stays healthy. And if they still can't get it done, Brad needs to give Sam a chance to run this team. We can't wait on Joe.


I don't think Joe is the problem, but your comparison seems spot on.

Tatum and Brown are the problem. I'm sick and tired of Tatum wasting the shot clock slow dribbling up the floor and then jacking a 30 footer. I'm tired of Brown's turnovers and defensive lapses.

The Laker game really soured me on this team. Sure, every team has a bad shooting night and loses to an inferior opponent. But there is absolutely no excuse for lack of effort, particularly on the boards. Will someone try to box out please and actually grab the ball instead of batting it around?

This team has a ton of talent but their two all-stars have no heart when things aren't going their way.
