There is no Eddie House to bail them out. All this pressure is on Pierce and if he's guarded KG and no way KG's gonna bust us up he'd explode. Ray is gonna get his but they don't have other scorers if we play tough D they are done.

Nice shot, Rajon. Keep shooting that. We're not worried about it.

The first few minutes of the 3rd quarter are absolutely crucial

3rd quarter is where we have to strike like a python, squeeze the life out of these punks.

We gotta keep the focus going and we'll be fine. If we get the first 2 home games we've got a great chance of finishing it in Boston.

We have to make a statement here. Nothing can end the series in Game 1, but we have to show them right here we mean business.

Most key factor fellas is Pau and Drew have only 1 foul between them. And Pau has the 1, nobody here would've though Drew would end with 0 !

Bynum with 19 minutes already in the first half. He looks pretty good.

If we keep being strong and patient they can't stop us. They are so afraid of Drew inside Pau has that easy high post shot. If Kobe keeps getting to the rim we will destroy them on the boards when they rotate. Their slapping won't slow us down if we keep playing strong.

Our D is looking strong, other then losing Rondo a couple times and a bunch of cheap FTs they couldn't score on us. KG is a jump shooter and a scared one at that. Baby can't go inside on us, Perk is useless except for a dumpoff once and a while. Just gotta keep Allen in sight and make Pierce work for everything.

DEEP, if he gives us this, it's over. There's no way Boston beats us with Drew playing like this

We gotta come out strong in the 3rd and try to put these clowns away. The Celtics are not a good 2nd half team at all, so if we win just ONE more quarter, this is over and we take the early lead in the series.

Love what Bynum and Pau are doing, as well as Kobe. Artest has Pierce's ass in check so far.

Didn;t Drew pick one on Perkins? I'm pretty sure it happened at 19 - 17 or something like that.

Especially with O'dumb getting in foul trouble early. Thank god Bynum isn't doing the same or else Josh Powell would be out there for significant minutes.
