feels like forever since our last game. I'd take TA off the key bench and put Gabe and Walker.

Yeah, you're right. I just threw it together quick this morning. I'll make some adjustments later.

Utah's tough at home. I remember we had one of our best offensive games out there last season. It was an offensive battle.

Agreed...should be a good game...we're well-rested, I'd like to see us come out storming and bury them early...

Ok, time to forget about deadlines and buy outs for a couple of hours

Everyone should be well rested, Big Celtics Win coming!

i think Deron will cause Rondo problems though

It's so nice to see Pruitt out there. It makes such a difference with him playing the point instead of House.

Agreed. His stats don't show his effect on the game and with the second unit especially. I could care less that he shoots 0-2 in a game or something. The fact that Eddie moves over to the 2 is much more important.

I like what Pruitt's doing tonight.

He's not only playing good,

he looks like a PG.

Last year I couldn't make that statement with confidence.

Jazz have this weird play they often do with Brewer where he's so far behind the hoop it's almost as if he's hiding, then when his man helps off him, they pass it to him and he gets an open dunk or layup

Solid quarter, defensively especially... holding them to a rediculously low percentage

Very good defense in the first. Offensively we could have played much better. Too many turnovers and missed open shots.

Celts really locking in on D. Great defense under the hoop from Perk and KG.

Return to Boston Celtics
