*sigh*. I'm relieved. Let's start off fresh against the Cavs. Do you guys know when game 1 is?
Tuesday night they start game1 in the Cavs series

Great defense is forcing long contested jump shots not giving up lots of shots around the rim. This wasn't great defense.

And DOC; Don't even get me started...

Just a lucky win...

give me a break....a lucky 30+ point win...

some people can never just appreciate a great game i guess. I'm with roy, i don't know what more you guys wanted out of this team in this specific game.

over the series, i have some things im disappointed in. To call this a lucky win? lol.

I think fan33 was being sarcastic.  He was gently poking fun at those criticizing both Doc and the defense, I think.

Is it wrong that this pick and his head flopping around like a fish out of water made me laugh and the grin is still on my face?!

I concur, EJ .... the best part was the announcer explaining that it was completely legal, and KG totally avoiding eye contact with Za Za ... I certainly have a new respect for this Hawks team, (Johnson is phenomenal), but I don't like them ... at ALL! (Especially Horford and his arrogant gums flapping, Bibby's ugly grimace, and Pachulia's blank stare). Ahhh ... I feel better now.

I haven't been so happy since game 2. Can't wait for Tuesday.

Wow. Great team effort. Great defense, great attitude...

I know people were saying that no matter what the outcome was today the damage was done to this Celtics team and there was no way we were going to the finals, but I think this team got some respect back today.

17 might or might not be just around the corner, but it definetly hasn't been this close for a long time.

I think "The Captain" said it best saying,"I'm glad we went to a game 7 and used the challenge to prove to ourselves we can overcome adversity and the memory of that will serve us well as a team going on throught these playoffs'!

Yeah, the Championship goes through Boston with our home court advantage in a game 7! Bring it to the Garden and I'm highly confident these Celtics win that game against ANY team in the NBA!

I love the drama!

I love this game!!!

Have to say, Bennett and the crew did a good job, and let the boys play on both ends .... good officiating today. Despite the big win, I'm still not real pleased with Doc .... some really questionable rotation, even though the level of play from the bench bailed him out a bit. Hope there are better adjustments on Tuesday.
