GT: Spurs vs. Celtics 

Post#1 » by Nolan » Wed Feb 12, 2014 2:42 am

When: 7:30 PM ET, February 12, 2014

The Celtics have been struggling lately so hopefully we take advantage of that and get ourselves a much needed win.

Go Spurs!!

First post, so hello! Well, I think Rondo will be playing in this one so not having Tony won't be fun. Though I like what Patty has been bringing. We also resigned Brown for another 10 day, probably just because Tony is not playing tonight. Jared Sullinger was also player of the week last week right? Hopefully we fair better than the Detroit game...

Welcome!

Sullinger's been a beast lately and I have a feeling he's going to give us some trouble in the paint tonight.

little late to the party, but looks like Belli and Bonner are shooting well. I'll take 60% from three in the first quarter. It's amazing how Duncan is still the most reliable spur after all these years. Really trying to enjoy these last few seasons.

Decent first quarter. Marco, Diaw and Bonner carried the offense but we're not going to shoot like that all game. We need to pick it up on the defensive end and do a better job of moving the ball on offense.

Prophetic words there! the thing that worries me this year is the inconsistency. I can't remember having to deal with so many injuries. Worst possible start to the 2nd quarter...

We really really need the All-Star break.

Patty's starting to heat up though.

Nice move by Jeff Green to end the half.

Yeah, Rondo can't be used to the idea of playing for the Lottery. Then again, it'll be weird for spurs fans if everyone leaves with Timmy.

I think we have a great team this year. The Boston announcers saying, "We're without Avery Bradley tonight and the Spurs are without Tony Parker, Kawhi Leonard, Manu Ginobli, and Tiago Splitter" LOL! To even be competitive with that much adversity says a lot about the Spurs. These games are going to pay off with our second unit come playoff time.

Celts are starting to post up Jeff Green. We have no answer for that at all.
