There is no center that Boston.Has that could run the court as fast as Queta just did..And he took two defenders with him which freed up holiday..
2 things need to go.. my lack of spell check and Joe.. :nod:

Nice Pass by White.
Nice Basket by Holiday.

Much better with Q as the Center and 4 smaller players.

- Horford's mom is short, but with dad, 7-2, I guess the height genetics thing doesn't matter.
- Mom would actually be better on the court than Averge Al has been most of the season...

Holiday is just so good.

I'm really all in for keeping Holiday and having a 500m payroll, but I don't know if the owners can afford that.

Too many easy shots inside if Kornet is the Center.

They were cooking inside in Quetas first stint too. Same guy, Johnson, keeps breaking us down.

I blame that on the double big.

Queta should play with the smaller players.

Having Q in a double big lineup is not good.


I tend to think there's nothing good about the double big lineups except it will keep our wings and guards more fresh come the end of the year.

Except in a few matchups here and there.

The Hawks play-by-play guy screams "let them shoot in the paint or mid-range shots, but guard the 3PT line five out," then the Celtics humour him scoring twice under the basket in 40 seconds (along with a three for good measure).

Sorry you have to listen to the Hawks feed.

It's nice to watch the other team's feed -- you get to hear all the respect and admiration the Celtics are getting around the league.
