Raptors (7-9) at Celtics (11-4) 11/27

I think the biggest concern is our ability or inability to defend the 3 point line in recent weeks.

Raptors can make some shots from the perimeter so we'd better be on our "A game".

[Drucci]

Tp indeed.

All the negativity aside, I just want to note that I have bought some JD and since I got two(!!) basketballgames tomorrow where I'm on point, they had bloody hetter play well cuz if I get to open those bottles, I don't think my games will be any better :p

That said, I think today is a good day to get some Gino time. I'm looking forward to a decent clobbering by our beloved Green team. Lets rout them Raptors like they've never been routed before!

Ps.: so, Drucci, around tonight or not?

*gettin' some shuteye before the game* Zz.

Ha ha, I guess you will open these bottles in any case, since you could drink to forget the possible poor performance of the C's or drink to celebrate their victory.

I will be there, taking the risk of getting to bed frustrated by the Celtics poor performance... but I'm trying to be less negative than usual, and hopefully the team will play well tonight.

Yup, that should be the game plan against these guys.  They do not want to go inside against the likes of Perkins/KG/Sheed.  In any case, they hardly defended the 3-point line against the Sixers and that simply should not happen.  As usual defense is the key and it's been missing in the past few games.

Nah, I don't think drinking is an option today

Right, I'm ready. Going to make some steak Hungry as a horse (Dutch saying, dunno if it works in English. Isn't it "so hungry I could eat a horse" or something?), haven't eaten yet and went to bed right after work to watch this game

So yeh, lets get this show on the road in 20 odd minutes.

I don't know where this concept of the C's 3 point defense sucking is coming from. Are teams dropping a lot of 3s on us? Yes. But is it a result of us leaving everyone and there mother open? No. It'll even out.

Anyways, been a while since I've been able to catch a game with you folks here. Go Charlotte, go Washington, go CELTICS!

C's playing in green at home? Weird!

Maybe we can count it as a road game and make them come here again. Just confuse the league.

[RJ87]

all the bench guys are taking a knee, is that our new ritual before scoring the first points?

[USG]

Rondo have his hands greased up or something?

Love Ray going to the basket this year.

And I love Rondo going to the basket every year. All night.

[fan33]

Ray, doin work, Rondo & Capt too, lookin good!

[Drucci]

Wow, Toronto's defense is really awful, the C's can penetrate at will!

I like our defense on the other side. Bosh is struggling against our bigs and Rondo is doing a great job on Calderon, staying in front of him.

Rofl, easy a TP :]

[USG]

Celtics are having their way with the Raptors in the paint. Now we just need to stop Bosh.

They used to stand until the first basket was made but since the league is now fining players for standing in front of the bench they decided to kneel instead.
