Well things are feeling a little low after a back to back beating from MIL but they just beat The Crabs so they are playing great ball right now. Second hottest team in the league behind Dallas.

Nothing to hang our heads about.

But I'll be up for watching this game because it's New Day Dray facing up against KG.

Not sure how much more Livingston we will see or if this is the first game he starts but it should be coming soon.

More rebuilding. More evaluating. More watching Dray and McGee develop.

Hopefully we make it a game and get to see some nice play from the boys.

Wait.. what? A back to back beating from MLK just doesn't read right.

Hands has an... interesting method of abbreviating. Maybe he was just jfking.

So um, what's Boston's health situation?

Dallas is the hotties team in the league? I guess Stevenson really helped their cause.

The Boston Celtics are taking advantage of a favorable stretch in their schedule. A visit from the Washington Wizards could be the perfect time to ease their newest addition into the mix.

With veteran Michael Finley set to make his Boston debut, the Celtics look for a fourth consecutive victory overall while trying for a sixth straight win over the Wizards on Sunday night.

After suffering a 104-96 home loss to lowly New Jersey last Saturday, Boston (39-21) has reeled off wins over Detroit, Charlotte and Philadelphia -- all have losing records.

We can win tonight, if we bring the energy and the ball movement...

Blatche is gonna have a big game..

No change in the starting line up.

Foye
MM
AT
Dray
McGee

Kind of what hoping they would give Livingston a start but I guess he isn't ready yet.

"Javale McGee - much further along on the defensive end than the offensive end"

- ESPN broadcaster

Blatche and McGee putting on a show early.

ESPN's sideline reporter claimed that the Wizards were about to write JaVale off as a building block, after a subpar summer league and beginning of the season. Only his recent play after The Trade has convinced EG & co. to keep this kid around for a while.

Absolutely ridiculous analysis.

Wizards rebounding the ball so far. McGee taking it to the hole- that is until he got kneed in the groin or stomach or something and got taken out.

They really need a point guard, but I like what I'm seeing.

KG looked like he was taking his matchup with Blatche personal. This is going to be an interesting game...

If I'm not mistaken, that sideline reported is Rich Bucher who of course used to cover the Wiz- that's really odd that he'd be so factually incorrect with that mcgee comment.

loving Blatche frustrate the hell out of Perkins.

Celtics days our numbered.

Wow where did that come from Big Baby? Most athletic play from him EVER.

Pollinator · Post #15 » by **Pollinator** » Mon Mar 8, 2010 1:35 am

Celtics look really confused about how to play us tonight. They seem not to have gotten the scouting report.

I expect that stuff follow by Davis to wake them up though.

Wizards FO: Sell tix! *Our* daze are numbered.

McGee has been looking better at the defensive end. One thing you can't deny, when he actually does have good positioning, no one finishes over him. His size and athleticism intimidates the hell out of the other team.

Wizards2Lottery · Post #18 » by **Wizards2Lottery** » Mon Mar 8, 2010 1:45 am

Leon Woods is the ref again. We will surely get jobbed tonight.

Pollinator · Post #19 » by **Pollinator** » Mon Mar 8, 2010 1:45 am

And the moment we-ve all been waiting for- Boykins-Robinson. Head to head.

Or actually, more like head to shoulder as Robinson's about a head taller.

Pollinator · Post #20 » by **Pollinator** » Mon Mar 8, 2010 1:57 am

Blatche playing tentatively since picking up 2 fouls at both ends of the court.

Celtics starters back in and lead down to 4
