Unable to watch the game, but looking at the box score I have no idea why this game was so close. The C's seemed dominant in almost every category, yet the Nets had 10 more FGAs? Anyone who watched care to fill me in on why this was even anywhere near a close game?

umm.. if you want to win why would you do that?

Rondo: 9/14 tonight
Harris: 7/21 tonight

I'll take someone who plays within himself over a guy who thinks he's better than he is and keeps playing when he's off any day.

Our defense without Garnett is just getting worse and worse. It is really painful to watch...

Miss you KG!

Can't understand all of the guys praying for KG to come back soon. We just clinched a playoff spot. No way can we end up less than the third seed. KG played over 100 games last year. Thezse regular season games are damn near meaningless.

Yes, it would be nice to have home court for the series, but I'd rather have Garnett with fresh legs over an extra home game any day. Here's hoping they don't bring him back until late March.

Actually the answer is in the T/O column.


And really someone thinks Harris is playing out of his role? What should he do in NJ diffrently? He already gets the same amount of steals per game as Rondo, and he leads his team offensively throughout the season.

He can't just sit back and wait for passes, or just drive in empty lanes to the hole. He needs to be APART of NJ's best players, not a role player for them. I'd love to see Harris on this team. Between him and one of KG,RA,PP we'd never need any players on the bench beside shooters and defenders/rebounders.

I think the main concern is just redeveloping the defensive chemistry.

IE if KG stays out too long, the defense will be Wizards level by the time he comes back and his precense won't be worth much because guys aren't communicating as much anymore.

I hope he comes back at least with 3 weeks left to go in the regular season.

I wish they could have a live feed of KG watching the games from home and cross over to it when the Celts defense is giving up easy buckets, hes probably broken a few chairs and plasma screens by now

cant wait for him to get back and hear him screaming instructions on D
