We want them taking jumpshots like that. But we're giving them too many open ones because of how much penetration Westbrook is getting.

I hope rondo comes to play in the second half. He has been awful and played zero defense.

Westbrook or Ibaka nailed him with an elbow on the first play of the game. No foul called an they got a "steal".

I have followed the box scope on my cell up until now. Dang Internet problems. I have to catch a VOD. Enjoy the second half, guys. Go C's.

The Thunder are knocking down a lot of jumpers.  Tuned in to the 2nd quarter.  Don't have much of a problem with how we're playing.

Shaq is the only one who showed up tonight.

When Shaq and KG go to the bench the Celtics have absolutely no interior defense.  Davis & Semih together is a bad idea.  

If the Celtics take care of the ball in the 2nd half and get defensive rebounds then they should definitely win.

No problem with being outrebounded 20-11 and Garnett having zero rebounds. Interesting.

Someone needs to inform the C's that sloth is one of the seven deadly sins.
"There are two kinds of people: those who say to God, 'Thy will be done,' and those to whom God says, 'All right, then, have it your way.'"

The C's have 5 team rebounds to 1 for the thunder, that reduces the margin a bit.

Giving up 23% of available offensive boards isn't good but its not horrific. We have to force misses first. KG is being forced to help on penetration so much that he's out of position. Stopping the penetration will fix the rebounding and likely the defensive issues.

Honestly we should have scored more points that 46 too, needs to step up the offensive execution.

They're playing with not much energy at the moment and what Doc said, forcing something when it isn't there. :(

We should play much better against a team who's missing their main guy as they tend to play more of a team ball (just look at what happens when we play team ball)compared to having Durant or the main star in the team and its more one on one.

Like I said, tuned in to the 2nd quarter.  Rebounding hasn't been much of an issue while I've been watching.  We're conceding mid-range Js to Ibaka and Westbrook and they're hitting them.  Maynor and Ivey hit softly contested 3s. 

I can live with that.  A needless double on Ibaka that led to free throws for Krstic and Semih getting burnt by Collison for driving 3-point play: those are the only defensive plays that really irked me.
