Marcus Morris has a lot of Antoine Walker in him

No Wiggle!

But more cash

Haha....'Toine has spent more money than Morris will likely ever make.

Although I'm not sure if 'Toine actually spent his money and didn't just literally eat it instead.

Rozer III is stinking it up...

Yeah, when I was saying take it to the rim, I don't mean Terry every time.  He is just throwing himself at the rim tossing up a prayer hoping for a foul or a miracle shot.  Gotta go under control.

Maybe Terry goes into one of those crazy 4th quarters hew has and starts hitting everything...

TP for the optimism!!!

Cool.  Xavier Silas is in.  I had a feeling we'd see him tonight.

I kinda wonder if Brad pulls the starters in the 4th....
we are playing so bad.  we are so thin at guard, maybe it is just better to not risk more injuries?
sit Terry.

  • Everybody knows what's best for you
We are doomed in the playoffs.
This is basically the team we roll out in round 1 and 2.

If we can't get any scoring from the PG position we are screwed.

Yeah, I mean I understand that we are playing the #1 seed right now and in the playoffs we will play the #7 seed, but this is pretty uninspiring stuff by our guys right now. This is as healthy as we've been in a while and it really couldn't be going worse.

The answer is NO.  We basically would be operating without a PG.  We’d get exposed big time.

Larkin would be back, and we still have Terry. We could take Miami or Milwaukee, probably Washington too.

Nearly historic, if not historic, levels of offensive futility tonight from the Celtics.
This has always been the problem this season.. Lots of 5 min streches where we cant buy a basket and this is where the other teams break away..
