The way we have been playing lately
January 15, 2008
I am sure I can speak for most of you when I say we have been playing some lousy basketball lately. We have lost 3 out of the last 4 games, and not to mention against teams that we should be beating. I am not sure if it is because the teams are getting a glimpse at us for the second time around or we are just overly confident. But, something needs to change and it has to change against Portland on Wednesday. Portland are a good basketball team and we need this win more than anything.
We can blame it on Doc Rivers all we want or the fact that the injury bug has started to take its toll on us with Ray Allen missing a game and Rondo missing a game. But it is a long season and we know that the injury bug strikes every team at some point. We can't use excuses, we need to snap out of this sloppy style of play and go back to what worked, fast breaks and taking good shots. Most importantly the bench needs to start contributing again. We were winning when we could take out the big 3 and know that the bench will score to keep us ahead.
All and all I think this is a minor slide that happens to a lot of teams and we just need to step up and end it.
Go Celts!!!
