First Round Game 6 Boston Celtics at Atlanta Hawks 5/2/08 8:00 PM (ESPN, CSN)

what is doc doing?  that trap with kg on joe johnson when he brings the ball up hasn't worked once.  they're breaking it every time and getting easy shots or fouls.  we can't play straight up D against the hawks? 

[BudweiserCeltic]

Powe needs to learn some freaking team defense.

[Who]

Rondo is killing us.

He's not moving the ball often enough or quickly enough. He came up on that last play (alley oop by Childress), dribbled the ball for 10 seconds, didn't look to pass it to anyone at any time, then drove, passed on the drive.

[Celtic]

I am really displeased with the Celtics right now. They are not playing to win, they are not executing, not rebounding, and not playing any decent D at all. This is the time to wake up, a game 7 is not an option.

[BASSTHUMPER]

powe is outsized.....overall hawks are taller and faster than our squad..but not better...nope..

[vinnie]

They will be lucky to win this game.  As I said earlier, there is absolutely something wrong with this team.  Putrid defense, no boxing out, the Hwaks made 9 of their last 12 field goal attempts. PITIFUL.  No excuses.

[SaCaCh]

Its like ATL is in another universe when they play down here. That tip was just plain silly. How do we win here???

[RebusRankin]

We need to step it up in the 4th. I don't care if we win by 1, I just want to win baby.

[Amir]

Since when has Ray not played a lick of Defense?


I cant believe this team right now.

[vinnie]

The C's made Marvin Williams an all star in the first half and Pachulia an all star in the second half.  Why the hell isn't Garnett just blowing by Pachulia.  Win or lose, the performance by the Celts in this series has been completely uninspiring and really troublesome.  It will be embarrassing if they have to go to a game 7 against this team on Sunday.

[BudweiserCeltic]

Rondo is killing us.

He's not moving the ball often enough or quickly enough. He came up on that last play (alley oop by Childress), dribbled the ball for 10 seconds, didn't look to pass it to anyone at any time, then drove, passed on the drive.

I agree completely here, and I've been seeing this for the last 3 games. I really don't know how people can consider him playing a good game, when it has clearly not been his game.  He's not moving the ball like he's used to, he's been awful finishing plays, and he keeps shooting even with his poor performance, when we have 3 players that should be getting the ball in pretty much every possession.

*sips 40oz*....

[Celtic]

Can somebody, maybe that guy Doc, get this lineup off the court?

[butterbeanlove]

and PJ is in the game why?

because Glenn likes to fiddle and diddle? Thought so.

[RebusRankin]

Can somebody, maybe that guy Doc, get this lineup off the court?

Agreed. Horford travelled.
