Title: What do we go on our upcoming homestand??
Post by: j804 on January 08, 2013, 05:54:37 PM
I think we can go 4-1 with a little payback to the Rockets and dropping one to Chicago. I'm sure KG will be fired up to play Anthony Davis and do well.

4-1 sounds about right but 3-2 wouldn't shock me too much.  Rockets are playing great basketball right now and the Bulls are a bad matchup for us.  But without a real point guard running that offense they could be truly stymied with Bradley pressuring them.

With the way we've been playing the last few games..and with AB getting back into a groove?

Why not a sweep?

We've just got to find a way to repel Rondo's newfound attraction to referees. ;D

Hell why not we are 1-0 so far, with the Bulls staggering that game is winnable for sure Jennings dropped like 40 on them.  8)

If we take out the Rockets I could see us really taking off on a win streak riding momentum, they usually play us well though. The Hornets game will be weird for Doc...will he be hesitant having Bradley frustrate his son? lol

If we beat houston I am fairly confident we will handle the rest of the teams and get a really nice streak going.

Big if though. Houston always seem to run us off our legs...[dang] young kids and their jibba jabba jumpshots.

Didn't the Rockets beat us this year already as well as the Bulls? Payback :P

Rockets man handled us during the road trip game. One of the biggest letdowns I've seen this year. The Celtics looked dead.  Just a weird game, were the Celtics were emotionless to beat Houston.

We owe the rocket a payback game.

ROckets are playing great with ASIK and HARDIN and Lee.

This will be a GREAT test to see if the Celtics can slow the game down and defend the high scoring rockets.

IF the C's can win this game....I'll feel A TON more confident about the future.

This might be a thrilling game , if the C's can stay in it.  ;D

I'm looking at a 7 game win streak being snapped in a close one to the Bulls... Still, I'll take that anyday.

I hope we win em all but Houston is rolling offensively.

Excited to watch Sully vs Chicago.

Yeah rockets turned it into an end to end affair and our old guys were puffed half way through the 2nd quarter :P.

If we keep this run of form going we'll beat the bulls.

I expect them to win every game so IMHO, a sweep is to be expected.

5 Home games, no back-to-back games, Celtics is in good shape, no any opponent from first 4 in a conference.
Why should we loose any of this game after Indy-Atlanta-NY wins?
5:0. In worst scenario (yes, this is NBA and different things happen) 4:1

I'll say this , if your the other teams you would be foolish to overlook the Celtics right now ....even as well as the Rockets are playing.  C's seem like they are on a mission as a team.

  Not that surprising, considering the double overtime game in Boston 2 nights earlier.

We should def beat the Bobcats and Hornets. Houston and Chi will be tough games. I'm looking forward to Sully going up against Noah/Boozer now that he is playing better.

I'm confident in Sully going up against any center he just held his own against the reigning DPOTY in Chandler a few nights ago  :P

He did compete pretty well with Chandler. I'd love to seem him throw Noah around bc He just has that annoying look. It's soooooo easy to hate him, lol.

Either 5-0 or 4-1
