tough loss, but not unexpected. for 1 1/2 to 2 quarters the celtics executed on defense and ran good plays on offense. early on green showed scoring and carried the team.
then inconsistency set in once more. this is a young team with ill matched and uneven talent. i expect inconsistency, though last night was a pretty severe split.
what i took away that i like was the first quarter. green playing as he should. defense playing tough, even without a shot blocker. good ball movement on offense.
what i throw away from my memory are the terrible shot selection during the 2nd quarter (and sometime beyond)...too many 3 pointers early in the clock. the ball did not move often enough.
and good gobs of goo why couldnt the team switch better on defense?
humphries by the way, was terrible. bogans worse. but they are gone after this season so i can put up with them.
