The Celtics are having a rough go right now.

With the Boston Celtics going on one of their worst stretches of the season, it appears as though the team is not feeling good about things right now. Among those who are unhappy with the direction of the team, is Jaylen Brown who has been one of the team's best young players. After a loss to the Houston Rockets this past weekend, Brown expressed his frustration, saying things aren't looking good right now. 

"To be honest, I'm not feeling good at all," Brown said, via The Boston Globe. "The losing, it's not a good feeling. I'm not too good about that. Because right now it's not good. It's toxic. I can't really point out one thing. I don't have all the answers. I'm just going to try to be part of the change. I'm going to try to do my best. That's all I've got to say."

Some people have blamed the recent struggles on Kyrie Irving, who doesn't look like himself and has been accused of being disengaged. While Brown didn't comment on Kyrie specifically, he did express how important chemistry is heading into the playoffs.

"Everybody has to be on page," Brown explained. "If one person's not on page, it's going to affect the whole group. I just try to come out and play hard and see where that leaves me."

The Celtics sit at a record of 38-26 and are ranked fifth in the Eastern Conference.
