The other time was also against the Celtics in 1997. Weird.

Tommy must have been going out of his mind.
The post is correct, we do need another PG, but we need to relax.
If the Raps got to go 15-of-22 from 3 to beat us --BARELY -- then god bless them. That is just a ridiculous amount of 3s. It's pro hoops, there was nothing you could have done.

Rondo is doing just fine, and he'll keep improving. The real problem on D last night wasn't Rondo, it was our guys not fighting through picks and getting burned on kickouts. I don't think I've ever seen so many wide open perimiter shots in my life. Yes, the shooting display was great but our perimiter defense was truly pathetic.

From an outsider's point of view I think Boston needs another pg...Cassell would be perfect...you also need a versatile forward off the bench...Posey has been shakey health wise over the last few yrs...i think they should try to acquire Nachbar while NJ is still not in the playoffs...he gives u another shooter..and he has a decent all around game too....even without the moves Boston is the best team in the league, but I think Detroit will expose their weaknesses in the playoffs...if Bos gets 2 rotation players I think they're gonna cruise to the title.............oh and as a side note...u cant leave toronto shooters open...they got 2 of the best three shooters in the league and they have 6 good 3 shooters overall and 9 players who can hit it consistently.....also, wats the deal with two plays for House at the end?...i've only seen a few celts games so it came as a shock to me

we've lost 4 out of 8 and clearly are not playing as good defense as we were before. I think this is a combination of injuries and fatigue as well as perhaps lack of practice time. From here on it's going to be a grind. If we play 500 ball the rest of the way we'll get to the playoffs but we won't scare anyone. cleveland and washington are making a move and detroit and orlando will be there as well. I think we need another player but I don't know who that is. Rondo has struggled to defend bigger ,stronger guards like Calderon, Billups etc and I don't see that changing. I thought Doc made a mistake by not playing tony on calderon, especially at the end. I would love to see a pruitt/tony backcourt as it would give us good size as well as defense. Stoudemire would be anice addition but he can't defend big guards either so I don't know if he's the answer. Danny clearly had this issue in mind when he brought emanuel to camp . Orien greene is out there and he is a good defender. unfortunately he is also turnover prone but I liked him when he was here. If we could ge delonte west back that would be great. Don't look now but telfair versus rondo should be an interesting match up tonight. rondo hasn't looked good in a couple of weeks
