Yea, last night was clearly a 100/100 on our "crank up the intensity" scale. Tough to fly up the coast and play a rested team, but hopefully the bench can bring it.

I don't expect JSmoove to continue his hot shooting from the perimeter. It's bound to backfire eventually.

Pierce missed a couple rotations of rotations and two poor turnovers so far. Hopefully he rights the ship soon

Celtics look tired, Hawks have fresh legs after 3 days off. Exactly what I was afraid of tonight.

I didn't like that Rondo did not set his feet on the jumper. Shooting starts with your feet.

Hopefully Ray will be OK. I'd rather that he not travel with the team. I want him healthy.

It is great to see Mike back. There is no need to rush Ray back if Peaches is ready to go.

If Bass went right up with that shot, it was an easy look. He needlessly pump fake.
