Are the national guys talking at all about the stuff that Lebron is getting away with on Pierce and the calls that went their way? Just wondering.

Bad calls or not, the way this team's backcourt is playing right now, they have no chance of winning this game. Rondo, Ray and House = AWFUL at this moment.

Eddie House and Ray Allen are single handedly losing this game for the Celtics. Everyone else has been at least better than they have for the last 8 games.

Nah, Pierce has played better the last 8 than he has tonight.

Well yeah Pierce has been the only solid player during this slide. I thought he was a given exception, that's why I didn't mention him.
Grab a few boards, keep the TO's under 14, close out on shooters and we'll win.

The recent stretch is gonna make it look worse when/if we lose...but in all honesty even if we were playing good ball right now, the cavs win at home, period

like hanging on the rim for an hour. I love my celtics, but its blatant stuff like that is what is pushing me away from the nba. any other player gets a t but not this clown. how can this league even pass as legit? not blaming or play on the refs, we are killing ourselves, but that kind of no call is insulting.
Still don't believe in Joe.

Hey if it gets close we could always throw a sixth man in, get a basket and it count, that's allowed these days right?

A 2 or 3 point for 1 point type of possession, definitely worth it lol
Anything is possible!!!

Is it just me, or did that seemed like the shortest halftime ever?

Agreed, because Eddie would be the sixth guy and would miss the wide open shot!

In this quarter we're playing a bit like the team that dominated the Lakers in the Finals.

Now, if only we had Pose coming off the bench...

It seems like Doc did give them one of those emotional speeches during halftime. They sure are playing a lot better than they did in the first half. Still too many careless turnovers, though.
