Celtics (2-3) at Bucks (3-1) 11/10

[PRIDE]

Bass and Sullinger need to box out on Ilyasova all night and we win, simple as that. Ilyasova had 4 offensive boards last game. Ellis and Jennings are too dangerous offensively to allow them extra shots. Rebounding and interior defense will be the keys to victory tonight. We did a really poor job of protecting the rim the last time we faced the Bucks.

Our bigs need to be aggressive. Ersan and even Sanders can kill us inside.

[hpantazo]

Our should I say, maybe we should actually play our bigs a little tonight instead of playing our wing players at PF and Center.

[hpantazo]

looks like Terry and Bass are starting tonight with Pierce, KG, and Rondo.

Of course it's a joke.  He's playing on the general feelings among the faithful of fed-uppedness with small ball.

I don't like Terry starting regularly but this is a fine matchup for him against Milwaukee's undersized backcourt with Brandon Jennings and Monta Ellis.

I think Green on Ersan and Wilcox on Sanders when KG is on the bench is fine.

I think Pierce neeeds to keep an eye on Tobias Harris tonite. He had entirely too good of a game in the previous matchup for my taste.

agreed. Pierce tends to get lazy on defense, especially against younger, lesser known guys like Harris.

Likely the Bucks see Terry as a mismatch against Ellis and go right at him.

Course neither plays great defense anyway so maybe Jet can score as well.

I would put Rondo on Monta and Terry on Jennings.

Monta Ellis is too powerful / physically strong / explosive for Terry on dribble penetration. Jennings is the easier matchup for Terry.

Exactly

Hm. Odd. Bucks announcers talk about their team, then straight after start talking about Paul Pierce as though he's not only the *best* player on our team, but also our *only* star.

Weird.
