I'm actually a little sad still about those 3 losses. :noway:


Yeah, me to.

the one that gets at me the most is the detroit loss.

I hope the C's return the favor

Thanks I appreciate it.

Well with digging this thread up from the grave... the "if" happened. I see our only possible losses over those games that could happen is

portland
dallas
or cleveland

even if we are 50/50 shots to win those games we would still be dominating

This team can still get better and that's just crazy to me. Tony Allen getting confidence in the knee and the team gelling even more on offense are still areas where we can definitely improve. This is fun.


Ray Allen has missed 10 free throws in 30 games played (113-123).

That's the highest free throw shooting % in the NBA this season.

Two (weep) happened to be in that Cleveland game.

Anyways, 20 in a row in extremely difficult and very unlikely for the Celtics.

Now that you're the "favorites" people will be giving you their best shots on a nightly basis. For lottery teams, beating you suddenly is like winning a championship. You're going to have a target on your back.

There will be nights when you play good solid basketball, but the other team and a player or players that just have career nights.

It happens no matter how good you are.

In the NBA it is never easy to go on a streak like that, but having the target on our back is nothing new. We've had a target on us all season.
