We need every win we can get with this poor start

Not that I want to lose, but history suggests this isn't true.

Rondo out is a short-term loss on paper, but if this fires the team up it's a long-term win, and maybe even a win tonight.

I gotta say, to this point in the season, I can't write it off anymore . . .

Lee and  Terry have been really disappointing, all things considered.  Both have played well below the level they were at just last season.

At least with Green there's the excuse that he hasn't played in a year.  Lee is obviously trying, but he can't seem to do anything offensively.  Terry doesn't bring any rebounding or defense to the table, and only in a handful of games has he really given us the scoring punch we expected from him.
You’ll have to excuse my lengthiness—the reason I dread writing letters is because I am so apt to get to slinging wisdom & forget to let up. Thus much precious time is lost.

I don't understand all the people saying 'this is a man's game' and applauding rondo for getting tossed.  I mean do we not agree that we are a better team with Rondo in the lineup? We need every win we can get with this poor start, and getting ejected and potentially suspended for a couple games just will make it worse.

Rondo has the skill and ability to just take it out on the nets and Humphries and just embarrass them on the court.  I would much rather he do that and help us win.

He stood up for his teammate after an excessive foul.  I thought his reaction was a tad too much, but I appreciate the idea and the spirit.

actually re-watching that play, KG was on his way down, Humphries gave him an additional push...that's a dirty play.
That should have been a flagrant...it was unnecessary contact

It's like Courtney Lee lost all ability to shoot when he became a Celtic

Stackhouse has been on from the corner 3.

Terry or Lee need to heat up. 

5 missed FTs  by Pierce. Wow

The Nets foul a ton.  Looks like a team that wants to play good D, is told to play good D, but doesn't really know how.  They just kinda run around and whack at people.

I thought I'd never say this. Doc go small. I'd rather have Green in than Collins right now.

Definitely. It was an excessive movement from Humphries' side.
Flagrant one should have been given.

Wish Lee gave some boost from the bench right now.
