With extremely difficult schedule remaining (PHI, MIL twice, BOS, TOR, IND, MIA), playoffs clearly not a given but they’re currently at 10 wins better than last year and for that, I’m satisfied. I think they’re actually a year ahead of schedule. Demanding 2-4 western trip could have been 4-2 but for heartbreakers at LAC and POR but as my grandfather used to say, “woulda coulda shoulda don’t do you no good-a”. The main point is that ownership, Marks and Atkinson have built an organization with a culture and work ethic that players have bought into and everyone around the league has taken notice. Excellent young core of Russell, Allen, Dinwiddie and Levert will only get better. Free agents will no longer laugh when the Nets say, “come play for us.” These last 7 games will be interesting but next year and beyond is where the fun really starts.
really shit game to lose--- Dlo blew that one despite having a very good game. got to take care of the ball.
need to get 2-3 wins.
Probably on the outside looking in and it’s going to be a bitter pill, but we would have never expected this season. We’re going to have to keep perspective.
I don't want the potential headaches that a player like Kyrie would provide, and frankly, it's not like he has propelled the Celtics to that many more wins than Brooklyn. Plus he is always hurt.
