Yesterday I said I'd just assume the Celtics lost so we could sooner be rid of Rivers.

I was just being whiny and extremely frustrated at the scenario, y'all know that don't you?

I'm by no means a fan of Rivers but I still want him to get a ring.

Celtics 27-0 when leading a series 3-2. Ain't going to change today. Well it will change to 28-0 but I'm just splitting hairs now.

3:30 in the morning.  I can't sleep and all I have to do is watch.  I hope our boys are snug in their beds, while the Hawks are tossing and turning in that hotel worrying about the wrath of the crowd they're going to have to face tomorrow. 

I'd be extremely dissapointed if any hotel in Boston even allowed the Hawks to book a hotel room.

I'm still shock that we will be playing the Hawks and not the Cavaliers today. I never thought that this series would even go 5 games, forget 7. I was a supporter of Doc the whole season but he has done a really poor job this series. I HOPE WE WIN!

Feeling pretty worried. Doc said our problem is defense, when it is really defense and lack of offensive execution in the 4th. They sort of go hand in hand if you are taking crappy shots in the 4th and always on defense.

Absolutely agreed.  It's time to let bygones be bygones; we're winning this game, and we start fresh against Cleveland.

108-89, Celts.

Amen.  Nothing matters but these 48 minutes.  Win this game and get all of us out of this hell that we've been in for two weeks.

Haha fitting that it's an overcast day in Boston.  Let's brighten everyone's moods up a little bit boys.

Hi guys.
Long time Celtics fan here; I've been following CelticsBlog for over a year and a half now, and felt a moment as tense as this warranted some good vibes sent to the Garden all the way from Portugal.

Lets go Celtics! Win this one for the best fans on the web.

I wasn't worried going in but a nice start is certainly reassuring.

God you can tell they're nervous.  They're outhustling the Hawks so far though, playing with the fear...
