Tony Allen's prestige is at its lowest point ever. Mike just called him a shorter Joey Graham.

I love that Pierce is a warrior, but I dont think he should be back in this one myself....hes been struggling with those knees all season

Depends on what the doctors say. If its just a bruise/overextension with a brace no reason he can't play.

[MattG12]

what a pass by Pruitt... who still thinks we need Stephon Marbury?

I like pruitt, but becuase he makes a nice pass doesnt mean we all of a sudden dont neep help...I dont want marbury regardless

We need help from another big man... too many people think we need PG help as well when Gabe Pruitt is perfectly capable when given playing time, he has a nice shot (better than Eddie's lately), great handles, excellent defense (much better than Eddie or TA for that matter), and I'm sure he's humble. Stephon Marbury is not the solution. I'm not saying we don't need help, I'm just saying we don't need PG help.

im more mad at him for being a clumsy goof who is sadly our only true back up SF.

Exactly, that is a criticism I can get behind! ;

would like to get up big so pierce can sit....

Missed the first quarter, what happened to the Captain?

Scalabrine ran into him and sprained his knee.

it is a sprain...i assume he is done for the game?

I think he's got a brace and looks like he'll be okay.

Scal didn't run into him, He got knocked into him by Bargnani, don't blame Scal for silly things, you can find plenty of legitimate criticisms if you want.

You are wrong. I just watched it again (DVR). Scal got beat Bargnani on a drive to the basket. At the last second Scal caught up and then just tripped. When he fell back, he landed on Paul's knee.

I'll take your word for it, despite that he's just playing basketball it happens. Silly to get mad at him for trying to recover.

I only point it out because Scal has a history of accidentally hurting teammates in practice and in games.

well this is a good week for boston to get moving...2 with the raptors, 2 with the nets...bigger games with the suns coming up....if they can a streak the next 10 games they will be back in it

[Chief]

Gabe out, Eddie still in. No matter how well Gabe plays, he's not got a chance with Doc. I could see that breaking some player's confidence.

[crownsy]

 2 horrid possessions with eddie at the point, would have hated to see gabe keep up his good play. thank god doc yanked him out quick.  Roll Eyes

[MattG12]

I wanna see Scal punch Joey Graham in the face.

[Evantime34]

I'm pretty sure Scal would get destroyed by Graham in a fight. Good to sees Scal pretending to be tough.
With Perk out it would be real nice to see KG go inside instead of taking free throw line and jumpers.

[celticinorlando]

well so much for pulling away...

[celticinorlando]

eddie runs the point and the lead disappears....hmmm...
