[dang], frustrating loss. And even more frustrating since it was another opportunity to take the first spot in the East with the Cleveland loss but as you could expect it, the Celtics lost a game that they should never have lost.
Sure, fatigue and 4 games in 5 days played against us especially since Chicago had plenty of rest before the game, but yet that's not an excuse. Our defense was putrid, our effort very questionable for the most part, and I thought Rondo didn't even try to defend on Rose or Hinrich for most of the game, leading into easy drives and buckets.
The Bulls used their athleticism and energy to their advantage, it's really frustrating to see them play us so easily when we blow them out with KG and Sheed in the game. [dang] injuries.
Frustrating loss, especially when we made runs during the whole game but never could get closer than minus 5 points. Missed free throws and turnovers killed us. Turnovers are really p---ing me of now, this is a veteran team and yet they lose the ball on a lot of occasions because they want to rush things. Calm down, fellows...
This is really a tough stretch for the C's, hopefully the rest until Monday will get them fresher and hopefully we will get back some players in the rotation (Sheed first, and maybe KG?).
