That's such a stupid lineup.

Teague, Korver, Jones, Smith, Petro.

Pierce would have to guard Teague or Korver, both of which would destroy him in separate ways. Korver wouldn't be a defensive liability because you could just toss him on Bass and not really have to worry about anything. Petro should own the boards and smith could match up on green. Jones would make Pierce work on the offensive end.

Smith has taken 4 shots from just inside the 3pt arc, 3 in the 3rd. From JUST inside the arc. It's like he's trying to prove a point.

Man, he really needs somebody to stimulate his mind.

I really complain about the reffing, so I'm maybe the last guy who should respond; however, this is a trash team BOS has out on the court and they're getting way too much respect from the refs. When Smith got his technical for complaining, he was right. We get the lead down to 6-7, the refs start calling 'em against us. It's happened all half.

When you take off your agenda glasses, you'll see I was mocking him.

I know.

I was re-iterating that Josh is hopeless.

No agenda, just pure disdain and disappointment.

Ugly game.

Boston is without some key players but Horford is so key for us.

We must shake this one off and move on.

You know it's a disappointment when Shavlick Randolph, of all scrubs, destroys your team on the glass

And he indeed destroyed us. He shoved us right out of the way on every possession. He wanted it; we'd take if only if it wasn't too hard.

Although he was most assuredly scouting the tournament, you can bet that Ferry got a hard-on checking his phone to learn that a Duke stiff was dominating.
