Knicks (0-0) at Celtics (0-0) Round 1 Game 1 4/17

[Thruthelookingglass]

We totally look like the second best team out there.  Our plays break down more than theirs, their passes are crisper, our rotations look slow.  Man I hope we come out with a killer 3rd quarter.

Glen Davis: volume shooter?!? More shots than J Shuttlesworth ? That aint right.

Our fans are a joke.

I'm telling ya, they're nervous.

I feel like deep down, the fans there don't really have alot of faith in this team.  Or maybe they do, but then the moment they start playing like they've been playing since the trade (so absolute crap) they quiet down.

I sure as hell don't have faith in this team.  And this game is just proving it more and more so far.

hmmm, seems like the team doesn't realize it's the playoffs because they look like they're playing the same way they did for the past month.

someone needs to let them know that they were supposed to 'flip the switch' in time for tonight's game   

[PosImpos]

God, I would rather do school work than watch this offense operate.

That is how awful it is. Where the hell is the team for the last 3 years?

Out there on the court . . . the Big-3 Celtics have always been a team prone to stretches of offensive stagnation.  They have little to no inside game and thus depend a lot on jumpshots.

It's just become much more noticeable this year because the team has gotten older and the legs simply aren't there on a lot of the jumpshots and tough runners in the lane.

[CaliCeltics]

I think we let the wrong "Allen" go. The one that could actually help right now is in San Antonio celebrating.

[Drucci]

It's a great defensive strategy to allow Stoudemire to shoot at will from midrange without even contesting his shots.

Our offense is garbage even though we get a lot of offensive boards.

[Change]

Perk got scapegoated for the spacing problem. It wasn't his fault all along.

[Marcus13]

And next season is going to be even worse...

[lovely_20]

we're screwed

Not yet, we're not.  Stay calm, people.

[Green Hell]

Our starters are GASSED. They're TOO old to handle a 9 man rotation. Pierce is front rimming, Ray is timid. They're too tired to close out the three point shooters and the Knicks haven't even started attacking the paint.

[tgreanier]

Hollinger is an idiot. I'm actually being kind when I say that about him.

Agreed. Wholeheartedly. His numbers are as useless as his opinions.

[PseudoElite]

Celtics are playing as badly as they have in the past 2 weeks,

where is the proverbial playoff switch?

Man....

[fanofgreen]

I am sick and tired of watching Rondo walk the *&#% ball up the floor!!!

[bruinsandceltics]

Pierce play some defense.
