This is true. However, I don't recall Danny Ainge being anything in the front office in 86.

Rajon Rondo and Paul Pierce are shooting on opposite ends of the court right now for the Celtics. Both players are working on their mid-range games. Rondo looks locked-in tonight. His jumper looks effortless. It

Thinking Boston will win this one. You guys have very good defense, and when we face great defensive teams Ford is the better PG for us usually since he can break down the defenes, and get his game off better then Calderon. Hopefully it's atleast a good game.

good luck

Hopefully Scal will go easy on Toronto this time. That guy is a beast.

Posey out---
James Posey is out tonight with an injured finger on his right hand, according to Celtics coach Doc Rivers. Rivers said he hopes Posey will return sometime next week, and said he doesn't expect to see him active over the weekend

In addition to a C's victory, I'm hoping the refs call a good game.

Tommy is right. Running teams can win championships. People think otherwise because most running teams are trying to mask their weak front courts. IMO, Style of play really doesnt matter. You just need to have very good bigmen.
