It is officially time to hit the panic button. The Celtics are just 3 games away from the NBA's All-Star Break and right now fans across Celtics Nation are starting to wonder. Will the Celtics even make the NBA Playoffs and if they do will it even be worth it rather then maybe tanking the 2nd half of the season for a high draft pick? Yes the Celtics truly hit ROCK BOTTOM this. After Celtics GM Danny Ainge took to the Radio Airways in Boston last week and said the team wasnt a title contender. The Celtics rather then responding to the comments from their GM with some good performances only ended up proving that Ainge might have been telling the truth as they went on a 3 game losing streak on their 3 game road trip. Losing to the Pelicans, Mavericks and Hawks to finish off their last road trip of the 1st half part of the season schedule and falling 2 games under 500. After losing to the Pelicans and Mavericks and just a few hours before the loss to the Hawks Celtics owner Wyc Grousbeck took to the airways and followed in Danny Ainges footsteps by saying the team isnt a title contender. That same night the Celtics ended the road trip getting blown out by the Atlanta Hawks in a game that saw the Hawks go up by as much as 27 points in route to a 127-112 win. So we will discuss where the Celtics now stand in the East Standings. Is it even worth any of our guys going to the All-Star Festivities knowing how things are going. You will hear audios from Celtics management and ownership on where they think the team is right now and where their confidence is right now. Is it being proven that Marcus Smart might be the most important player on this roster despite not being the best scorer. We will discuss those things and look to the final week of the 1st half schedule with Mike Dynon @MikeDynon on Twitter and a writer for Redsarmy.com and Matt Rury @TeamGreenTruth on Twitter and a CLNS Media Host and Writer
