Rondo with a double-double, and some garbage minutes for the deep bench now ... nice game for Jeff, too.

I'm personally glad that Doug Collins went back to coaching ... a lot of basketball knowledge that was being wasted as an announcer, IMO.

Great game ... still quite a few turnovers, but we played defense extremely well, shared the ball, attacked the basket, and ran the fast-break well. Great to see Nenad back and doing well, and Jeff Green seems to be getting into a "groove" with this team. A lot of good signs tonight ... let's hope it continues.

Go Celtics!

Just saw the game. Sloppy first half, less sloppy second one but still some big sloppy passes. Overall, a good game, we limited Philly's fastbreak opportunities and forced them into halcourt sets and we saw how that worked for them. That's why I'm hoping we play them in the first round. They are gritty and never back down, and they have a good coach but they have no creator and no real scorer (if Iggy is our main option... well good luck) and we just have too many options for them to defend well for 48 minutes.

Great games by everybody, Ray woke up late (didn't got a lot of touches either) but buried some key 3's to finish the Sixers and whatever run they had left. Plus, the Lakers loss was unexpected and sweet, now we have a real chance of getting HCA over them again.
