Listening to the Pistons announcer, you'd think there's absolutely nothing wrong with being down 16 at home. And he calls a 3-pointer a "long gun."

Can't believe I am watching and rooting for the Celtics...

Looking like the Knicks must win tonight because Indy and Brooklyn are well on their ways to victory tonight.

On a side note, I know I should be pulling for Miami over Boston right now; but I'm not. I couldn't care less if Boston gains a game on us tonight, because I don't know how much longer I can take, having to hear about Miami's win streak. To make it worse I'm down here in Florida where you can't turn on the TV/Radio without hearing about it. 31-19 Boston heading into the 2nd quarter...

Or NBA history. Philly held out hope when it was obvious there wasn't any. Can't believe all they got out of this deal is cap-space.

Celtics up 17!

Jeff Green is a huge xfactor for Boston.. To me he's always been the type of player that needs the ball in his hands... he also needs to always be stuck on go.. when he's standing around just waiting for the ball he's not very effective.

We are due a win with small ball. Hopefully it's tonight....

Once again, I find myself rooting for the Celtics!

I'll be sure to wash thoroughly after the game!

The Heat losing is gonna make it even worse for anyone in the East.

They can rest up their guys, and only play to keep tuned now since the #1 seed is only a few games from being locked up.

They have an 11 game lead with 16 to go after this one.

That is not good, they need to keep winning so those dudes will keep playing.

In Utah? the way those fans affect the refs... that's a tough win especially for an undermanned team.

True, but a lot of it is his fault. Even at Georgetown, he'd coast during games so others could get theirs. Unfortunately his cast was not as good as he thought/hoped!

In the NBA, by playing second fiddle to Durant without every asserting himself (like Westbrook

), he cost himself millions.

I'd be worried about Boston catching us more than Brooklyn.

I will be heading to Iceland hot springs and will not mention their name until the 26th....

That's a stat i didn't know...Lebron and Wade lead the league in points in the paint.

But you know we've seen Wilson take his motor to the next level this year... when he comes in the game this year he's been so aggressive.. I mean I don't remember him being that persistent on offense in NY... Both of those players Green and Chandler need to go and just play aggressively because their personalities are quiet and reserved.

Wilson Chandler with 20 in the first half.

When you are working with zero fouls every game, I suppose it's easy to be aggressive in the paint....especially Wade always pushing off each time he goes to the basket....

Miami just getting layup after layup.
