i think that as bad as they have been playing, they still are gona pull away with a W on friday. theres no way they can't get up for this game. i'm expecting to see the celtics true colors on friday and i think they still got a desire to win it all. this win would also catapult this team and pull them out of this slump. maybe this is complete hope right now, but i cant see KG and PP letting this opportunity slip away. they played on terrible teams for the majority of there careers so i cant see them settling for only one good season.

so ya i'm gona say it, a WIN at cleveland on friday.

(here comes the execution lol)

I would like to think we could bounce back to beat the Cavs. Still I wouldn't bet on it but we can all hope a miracle will happen.

  • Rondo doesn't believe in easy buckets...
If we play defense like we did today Lebron will dismantle us.

This team needs to get it's act together.

Final box score will be:
BOS 95, CLE 91.

That's right.

i think KG and Perk should be able to stay out of foul trouble and get some good inside baskets becuase Big Z will not be there.

Lebron goes for 40 and some Cavalier that has done nothing all year will go for a career high. Maybe they can start winning versus Toronto and New Jersey, but the way they are playing now, who knows.

Who guards Lebron when PP goes to the bench?  Cavs big....

This is where you really miss Posey's impact on your team defense.

For the short term they have to just fight through this.  For the long term they need to improve the bench.  A good start would be begging PJ Brown to come back one more time.....Finding out whether Pruitt can help this year isn't a bad move either at this point.

The cavs are undefeated at home, we could not win their once last year in the regular season or playoffs, they are playing much better than us, as we are not playing very good right now and they already owe us for opening night...i think we're doomed to be honest...but hey a win could do alot for the teams morale as well as all of ours...

They're going to have to beat the refs and Doc, but they're going to win. I can feel it.

How about Pierce goes for 40?
The way things are playing out right now
we really don't have anything to lose!

Pruitt will have a huge night off the bench. In a related story, Mike O'Hara and Jimmie Flaherty are going to kidnap Doc Rivers before the game. ;D

In all seriousness, though... if TA is still hurt, who guards LeBron to spell Paul?

Scal?!
