There’s no getting around it, the Boston Celtics are no good at the moment.
Boston stayed in its brutal rut on Wednesday with a 127-112 loss to the Atlanta Hawks to cover a three-game winless road trip.
It’s been tough. Yes, the team is dealing with injuries and rocked by COVID-19, but the recent streak has left fans scratching their heads and asking, ‘what the hell is going on?’
Celtic’s majority shareholder Wyc Grousbeck admitted that he complained “a little privately” about his team during a performance on 98.5 The Sports Hub’s “Felger & Mazz,” and believes he knows what the problem is.
“It seems to me that it was wrong,” said Grousbeck. ‘I think we have things to point out … but I think it was wrong. Some games, or moments during games, we look great. And that’s a strong word, but there are good times when you can see a lot of potential in this team. But then there are periods when you lose the 24 point lead and lose the match. I have a personal feeling to wish that things are going better and that things are not going the way I want. “
Unequal is certainly a good way to put it.
There’s still time for the Celtics to get back on track, but they don’t have all the time in the world. The sooner they find out, the better.
