Boston has lost two in a row. It seems like we have caught a lot of teams hungry for / or in need of a win in the second half of the season.

will Kemba get 6 more 3s tonight and break the record? I hope so! I'd really like to see him get to 250, but I will not have any issues if we decide to simply sit him and lose out after he gets to 244

Last home game of the year. Let's make it count! Kemba get the 3 record, Marv with some jaw dropping dunks, and Frank with some swishes from deep!

Celtics are 7 3s away from setting a new franchise record for 3s made in a game. It's just random dumb luck though guys.

It isn't luck, it is the result of poor defensive strategy. I pointed out what the problem was months ago, and Coach Clifford never changed the way they defend. So if you want to point fingers, there is plenty of blame to go around. Just none for Kemba Walker.

I blame Kemba for being a diminutive chucker. We need a pass-first PG like Kabongo.

Guess who the current record is against? Utah, who gives up the fewest threes in the league, from earlier this season.

They must have decided to suck for one game.

I've softened on them a bit now that Wade is gone, still not a fan though.

I wonder how the Celts got so good at least record wise. They barely got more talent than we do. Doubt their butlered coaching is that good.

Davis - Kemba
Batum - Richardson
Mashburn - Wallace
Lg - Mcbob ( dunno why but I liked da dude )
Mourning - Ajinca lol

This franchise is the W.O.A.T. Should be playing the bench players right now.

At least Indiana is winning big to finally put us out of our misery.
