Nice game thread.

The Celts were robbed of the win today vs LA. Shocking officiating.

I'm not too confident that we pick up the W on this one, it would be nice but the C's are in great form, despite today's result. Allen's shot is falling and Eddie House is absolutely on fire as of late.

But our Big 3 (+ Fin) will have had four or five days off between games, which always helps a bunch of geriatrics like us.

I'd love to match up with these guys in the Finals, TD vs KG on the big stage would be awesome.

Go team!!!!

When I look at the series overall. The average person would think this matchup would be some kind of rivalry. Obviously, it's not since both teams only meet twice during the season. Before last season, the Spurs beat the Celts at home for 18 straight seasons. If the Spurs beat the Celt, that means they were able to force the defensive pressure on the Celts to force them into a bad shooting day on the floor. If the Celts win, it would mean they were able to get the Big 3 going early and the rest of the Celts follow suit by keeping the offensive flow going strong.

TD vs. KG -TD is not going to let KG get his so easily. He will make him for for his. TD needs to get KG into foul trouble to put a dent into the PGA Tour.

Fin vs. PP- This matchup has me concern a bit. I'm expecting Fin to get burn here. Just hope that Fin can put some effort onto the defensive end to make PP earn his shots rather than makin it a good day for the Celts.

GO SPURS!

Celts 37
Spurs 36

Bonner is playing solid in this game so far. The Celts are giving up the inside a bit.


Spurs 40
Celts 37

in the mid second quarter.

I think Bonner is on a roll. He has 11pts.

Bonner has 13. He's filing his papers to be the Celts killer. lol

TD to Mason for the cut to the basket.

Gino for the 2 plus 1 play.

Spurs got bailed out on the shot clock violation with Perkins fouling TD.

TD goes 1-2

Spurs lead the Celts 60-52 at the half.

The Spurs have shot 70% in the first half. Strangely Matt Bonner had a hand in the offensive spurt for the Spurs. The Celts defense was that weak. The Celts will either have to change up some things or the Spurs will simply kill the Celts from in the post.

Super Bonner!!!!

Celts cracked up an 8-0 run on the Spurs. 60 up for both teams. Spurs with the TO.

Spurs offense gone cold.

Thx you TD for shutin the crowd down with that shot.

Spurs lettin the Celts quickness get the best of them.

Bonner wit the shot.

Gino wit ths shot.

Bonner wit the 3!

Gino wit the 3!
