I don't think Hubie trashed us . Everything he said is true

1) our backcourt sucks
2) why do we go long stretches ignoring Dwight Howard in the paint ?

I really don't think anyone can honestly refute his comments

Another good post-game comment performance by Van Gundy: on Hedo's last shot, "I think he wanted to set it up so he could hit a miracle and make his final bid for the All-Star game. If we win by seven, no drama. It doesn't make as good of a case."... (edit: I guess he was also talking about the previous misses too)

Check yahoo sports game recap. They have just updated it to include the post-game quotes...

nba.com/magic always has full postgame quotes after every home game.

Howard added two three throws, a feat of some magnitude for the 59.6 percent foul shooter, to raucous chants of "M-V-P!" The fourth-year standout is a long-shot candidate, and his Magic were looking good at the time: up 69-53, in the third quarter.

But that was with Garnett resting a strained abdominal muscle and Allen on the bench with four fouls.


I swear to god, AP articles trash us so much.. remember the cleveland game too?

[TooNice00]

Hubie talked about us all game vs the Pistons, I really dont see this Magic hating that you all talk bout.. but meh

hubie was pretty much praising the celtics all game but that is to be expected

[SOUL]

The thing is, they were owning us on defense without Garnett too.. he wasnt trashing us on the big 3rd quarter run, I really don't get why you think broadcasters are supposed to suck us off every second..

-= original quote snipped =-


i shouldve said wolves that was more recent but didnt they just barely beat the cats one game but ya the wolves is better

The Celts beat the Cats 93-85 on Jan 9th.

There is still truth in those AP comments.

Though, I have to say, despite Garnett's absence, Celtics played really good defense on us. But, it was mostly us who may have cost us the game, with all the turnovers and not-good decisions.

i never said that they were trashing us. but that he was praising boston the whole game especially rondo and pierce. some people took the whole howard mvp and gerald wallce as mvp as some what of a slight towards howard.but whatever "don't want all my post you see to be about me arguing." since it seems to bother you.

Great win!

As to ppl asking about where the Hedo traders are...well I'm still here. I'd still send him out for the right player.

[SOUL]

I dont mind disagreeing, I just said on the Boston forum.. since you could get suspended for that..

I just didn't see anything that bad from what he said, either way nobody should be surprised that Boston is gettin slurped

Without a sign and trade, you won't get a player in return to make the team considerably better.

The Celts did pretty good defensively in forcing the Magic to force jump shots. Hubie mention that they are a good defensive team and it showed in today's matchup. As for their critiques. Some may come across as having some brown crumbs on their lips and there are others who will be unbias. In Hubie's case. He was tellin the truth. The Magic backcourt isn't as consistant and cohesive as it needs to be. And for some periods of the game, the Magic went away from D-12 despite him being a force on the defensive end. D-12 though I think should get a 10-12 ft shot going so he'l be more than just empathic dunks and putbacks on offense. If you have more than one weapon on either side of the court. You would be a force to be reckon with.

^i know i agree. we will have our time when the media worships us like they do boston. boston is just the hot topic this season.

[Wayland The Smith]

pierce gained my respect;
"It was a good shot. I thought I played pretty good defense. (I) cut off his initial drive, he turned around and shot a 3-pointer from two to three feet off the line and sunk the shot. It was just a great shot.

Boston fans are hilarious. They have one of the consistenly worst teams in the NBA over the last decade, then they have one great season and they turn into the least classy, most obnoxious fans in the country.

So the next time a Celtic fan wants to troll, just remember that if this were a playoff series, we'd be halfway to sending you home. 2-1, baby!!
