Feels like last year's 24-58 Celts playing against last year's 24-58 Celts.

AAAAARRRRRGGGGGHHHHHHH

12 points in the quarter. Awesome.

Watch Gerald continue to play like it's birthday. The T-Wolves are motivated. We're not. This has the look of 4-point loss all over it.

Yep, and sadly the C's seem to want this game more than the C's.


I'm not even sure I want the Cs to win this one. ;)

How long will this team keep carrying Ray Allen?

Keep Leon in there. He is the only one being aggressive.

OK. Someone needs to come to the ball when it is being inbounded. This is not football where everybody goes deep.

Here is the problem. It is hard for the crowd to get excited about playing a team that has won 7 game. On top of that the crowed will react to how the players are playing.

I've been on the team for a while now, I'm not going to pile on tonight. I'm just glad I didn't get home until midway through the 3rd period. It is good to see Pierce driving more frequently. Classic case of, "keep doing it and the shots will start to fall."

I don't blame them. The C's haven't given them anything to cheer about.

Honestly, why are the Wolves shutting down KG?

Remember when he used to get to shoot from 17 feet? I haven't seen him do that in over a week. That's his bread and butter.

If they are doubling him in the post, we should be able to work the ball around and get good shots. The guards and Pierce see KG getting doubled and think it's a swell idea to just barrel into the lane. Just stupid basketball.

It doesn't feel worse than the Raptors game to me.

14 TOs in 3 quarter is not a stat I like to see. Make that 14.

Let's hope we can turn it on in the 4th.

Return to Boston Celtics
