Powe and Rondo with career highs tonight!

I just walked in to see this mess. No KG and no Allen and this is going on. The heat should not be this bad. I have seen more people at a high school game.

I was somewhat worried at halftime, but I think this one is now in the bag.

Not to be a Debbie Downer on such a good night, but I think Gabe looks terrible out there.

In Gabe's defense, it really is tough to sit and watch for 3 quarters and then be expected to be a point guard.

Jackson on FIRE!! Someone please cover him!!!!!!!

A time out with 56 seconds? LOL

Yeah, I hear you but it's just a little disappointing because he usually doesn't get this much PT and I was looking forward to seeing what he would do. Whatever. Just nitpicking.

This team is more than 3 players!

Leon's per is going to take a huge jump.

I know someone who watched Leon in the Pac-10 and when we drafted him said, "That guy is a sleeper. He's gonna work out bigtime for you guys."

IDK on the cigar, if rondo had played the 4th he would of put up bigger numbers, I think it was rondo who set the tone early and got us the lead, leon kept it, but my vote is going to go to rondo

Yeah, it's very close between Leon and Rondo. I'd probably go with Rondo as he was the one who turned this into a blow out in that 1st Q and while Leon played very well, he really padded his stats in that 4th quarter and garbage time (not that there's anything wrong with that).

Danny Ainge is a master at finding talent.

What a beating.

Kudos to the team for stepping up. I feel bad for Riley. He makes the Shaq trade, wins the title, fails to draft well or develop talent, and now has a skeleton of a roster with the horizon nowhere in sight, while Shaq is now the biggest NBA fossil alive.

That's why I'm looking forward to this year's draft. I haven't had to follow NBADraft, draftexpress, other team's records, etc. All I know is we're going to pick a guy a LOT lower than we're used to, which should make things much less stressful and more intriguing.

Draft day is sort of like a holiday for Celtics fans...at least to me, anyway.
