Why do you think Boston Celtics loose these many games in a row?

Roni pretty much covered it. I'd say the injuries to Tony Allen and Paul Pierce were two main reasons. Even though the teams not that great with them, in the Atlantic they had a chance to compete for the division (yes it's that bad).
The team was going for a lineup at one point that had four kids that entered the leauge out of HS and have only been in the league for short period of time.
The current losing streak also adds to it. Usually teams won't bring their A game against a sub par team like the Celtics, but now that the streak has gone on so long and is receiving a lot of coverage for every game no team is going to want to be the team that finally loses to the Celtics.
It's going to be an uphill battle to get that win, but with Paul back it should come soon, the record will not be broken.

Because the Celtics have Lost Paul Pierce for a good chunk of that losing streak also they have been playin very sloppy defensively and offensively... they cant be missin those easy shots from 3 point land and give up those easy turnovers

Because Paul Pierce is just coming back from an injury that kept him down for a month and a half. They have no big men healthy. Oh, and they have 6 guys on the team that arent even old enough to drink.

They are young and inexperienced. Paul Pierce has also been out and if he were healthy over the past month, there is no way this would have ever gotten to this point.
