Since team forgetting about Dwight on offense (except for the trust put on his offensive boards) seems to be a recurring observation, I guess that should be based on Van Gundy's plan. Though, I would like to see him make his case for that...

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


He's probably talking about the game on Nov. 24th where the Celtic's won on a lucky @ss 3 point shot by Ray Allen at the buzzer...

[b][b][quote="Gerhalt11"][b]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

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


That's what I was telling people. Why you want to trade Hedo? Who the hell is going to take over 4th quarters. Those players are hard to find. Rashard Lewis really won't pick up the slack, and dosen't really have the skills to do it.

We are pretty much gonna stick with this team.

Or when talking about Hedo's physical appearance. Only Pau Gasol can make a better case for ugliest player in the league


You obviously haven't seen Sam Cassell

With this win over the Celtics, does this make Orlando the only team to beat Boston twice? ;D

Nobody can really argue that Hedo has been our best and most valuable player this season. Without him, we're a sub 500 team.

Dude is bananas. I was at work (Emergency Room) watching the end of the game in an empty patient room and it took a lot to keep from yelling "YES!" at the top of my lungs, haha. Even with the way I reacted, nurses were like "WTF" to me.

And LOL @ the Celtics fans complaining about the refs and calling us a "dirty" team.

Maybe if Boston wasn't full of a bunch of pussies and had crybaby children as fans, they'd win games like these.

Go grab a tissue, losers.

Seen several replays, and man what a shot. Hedo is the Hero. And the crowd was awesome there. Have u guys noticed that Hedo's victory dances are getting less and less awkard? I guess its the added practice this year lol.

WHAT A **** GAME!!!! SWEATER VEST AND FAT GUY WERE GOING CRAZY THE WHOLE GAME!!! :) :D

HEDO YOU S.OB., THANKS FOR SENDING US HOME WITH GRINS ON OUR FACES. GET THIS MAN INTO THE ALL STAR GAME!! He was getting popped in the face and pushed around all game with no calls and he just told Pierce to f*ck off when he launched. YouTube video to come once that site is done with maintenance.

Great to see Dwight drill his free throws during the M-V-P chants (T-MAC would choke). :)

Mo and Arroyo should've been in more in the 4th becaue Keith couldn't play a lick of D and Dooling was killing us at the point as he's not moving as well as he would if healthy.

COOKIE YOU S.O.B., EVERY MAGIC FAN IN THE UPPER DECK WAS GOING APE SH*T AFTER EVERY SHOT HE'D DRILL AS THE MAN IS BEING WORSHIPPED ALREADY.
Great game out of Mo, Rashard also showing some toughness.
Got a lot of free stuff from the NBA RV as Amway Arena was rocking.

Enjoyed this win a ton just like the Pistons win, Celtic fans were sprinting to their cars, staying quiet, or just slouching in their seats.

Miami at home Wednesday, look for the South Beach fans to show up (not as big as numbers if they'd have a winning record).

Oh, and Celtic fans don't deserve to make an excuse, not our fault KG hurt his vagina and pussied out. His fault if he was dumb to strain an ab muscle.
Refs were horrible again, but one more time we fight through it.

FINALLY, JEMELE HILL WAS SITTING 4 ROWS FROM THE TOP OF SECTION 217. :D That b*tch got drunk by the 3rd quarter, glad our organization didn't reward that hater as she deserved those bad seats.

Man some Boston fans are sore losers. Someone mentioned Dwight is not a franchise center and that Hedo is not a good 3pt shooter LOL wow.

Good Luck in the future against other teams.


If things stay the way they are, we are meeting the Pistons in the second round if we make it that far. So.....good luck against the Pistons.

Nice win, whether Garnett played or not. Nice to see Dwight dominate on the glass when he should and to see Hedo contribute.

Coming from a team with Kendrick Perkins as their center.

Dwight has improvements to make, but he is pretty much the definiton of a franchise center.
