Celtics have blown a lot of double digit leads this season.

This is what they play in Boston when they win.

When I was at the game in November they played it during a timeout with like six minutes left.

great team play by the Jazz in the second half. Money man is back to stay!!! Slow starts still an issue, but maybe when Ak-47 comes back healthy the slow starts can be avoided.
Top 4 seed in the West!!! Guaranteed!!!

Very good win. Nice to see the Jazz get punched in the first half and come back harder at them in the second. It was not a grind it out come back. they came out swinging.

Very impressive win. A few good things I've noticed lately:

1) Memo is playing with a lot more energy and confidence lately. He's crashing the boards and shooting threes he would pass up earlier in the season

2) Wesley Matthews is already as good a player as Ronnie Brewer was. I think he's actually a better on-ball defender and he has shown the ability to hit not only threes but mid-range jumpers.

3) CJ Miles is attacking the basket and it's really paying off for the team.

4) Boozer truly is playing better defense this season, and his ability to finish off the pick and roll is amazing.

5) Koufos actually looked like a basketball player against the Celtics. Nice to see him get some minutes where he didn't look horrible.

Now a few troubling things:

1) I still don't think Ronnie Price has any clue what a pick and roll is.

2) Millsap is so inferior to Boozer on the offensive end that I don't think his hustle and defense come close to making up for it. I'd love for him to prove me wrong.

3) If a team takes away Kyle Korver's jumpshot he doesn't really have much of anything, does he?

4) While he's playing very, very well, Williams is still, at times, losing his head on the court. He needs to pay more attention to finishing at the rim and less to chewing out the officials. If he didn't seem to make poor decisions when he gets upset I wouldn't care.

Hah! That's hilarious. I've never seen a team get away with as many fouls as the Celtics over the past three years. It's amazing the defense you can play when the refs let you hack the other team.

great win tonight. The Jazz needed a little momentum going out on the road this week and this was a great way to get it. Nice to see Memo gut it up and carry the Jazz in the third. Boozer's posterization of Ray Ray on both ends of the court was one of the more entertaining things I've seen all season.

The refs were so awful in this game. I'm shocked Doc had the nerve to want to be ejected, his team got all the breaks and quite frankly they are just inferior to us. We did this without our best defender and starting SF AK.

Everyone wants to talk about the energy Memo has had lately but what about Sloan? I haven't seen him off the bench as much as he has been for a few years.

1/2 a game behind Dallas! Hopefully we can get that damn 2nd seed! Hope does damn Knicks can take a dive too!

BTW the Knicks vs Denver, regardless of what happens, we win in some way, but I guess I prefer the Nuggets to win this one.

Return to Utah Jazz
