Ugh.......

Another day, another road loss...

I'm going to try and write an article today on how I see the Celtics for
the rest of the season...I've been real busy lately and haven't been able
to sit down and write much.  What I can see is that the potential is still
there, but the guys just aren't doing it.  Bucking a trend from early in
the season when the first quarters were horrid, now we see lousy second
halves two games in a row.  At one time today the C's led 24-18, but it
soon became all Bricks after that.

Michael Holley remarked in today's Globe that the Celtics were "poor
listeners".  I agree.  I am confident that Pitino is teaching a good
system, but his players perhaps do have hearing problems (something my
junior high students often have also!) and go out and play, for lack of a
better term, stupid basketball.

Anyway, we have a second half of the season stacked with home games.  We
need to perk up and the players need to listen up.
