Didn't TA do almost the same play against the Pistons last year to lose the game??

Good God Tony... contain yourself for the good of the team

to be fair, he got jobbed. that wasen't a foul, not was t-mac shooting. T-mac kicked tony and fell down and foster bailed him out.

Tony Allen is incredibly unclutch.

In the summer of 2017, I predicted this team would not win a championship for the next 10 years.

3 down, 7 to go.

That's legitimate... However, seeing as it's happened before to him specifically late in a big game, he should definitely know that NBA refs have a tendency to bail out the big players when he's on the road in a game like this. Don't even give the refs the chance to blow the whistle when the shot/possession can't tie the game without the refs help. Weak foul, yes, but TA didn't help himself by getting in that position anyway.
"Let me call him," Floyd said.

The man shook his head. "O.J. doesn't give out his cell," he said. "He'll call you."

Great win (as he lets out a huge sigh of relief).

A win on the road against a very good Western Conference team.  That's big.
 
Go Perk !!!

Ray Allen, very nice.

Now, about signing Antonio.......................

Cheers

Even if it wasn't, seems almost like probability-wise we should be wary of TA on the floor in the last minute of close games. 

Great game, great to see RayRay back to being RayRay.

I still think Redz naming OKC the angry pickles is better than Thunder.

I like TA, and it's true he was jobbed on that call, but still, he should know that Tracy McGrady will get bailed out at home if the refs have the opportunity to do so. play with your arms straight up and make him hit a deep three over you. d

From the AP:

'Kevin House hit two free throws at the other end with 9.6 seconds remaining. Brent Barry then shot an airball and Garnett caught it to secure the win.'

Nice to see the AP pays so much attention to names.  ::)

They have now corrected it. Seems they should not send anything out until they have proofread everything.

Artest took 10 3-pointers. He is insane.  ;D

so much for trading away Ray Allen after one bad game (like i said, i didn't think anyone could be worse than Tennessee football fans about overreacting) ...... Celts fans are in a league all their own.

i did not, however, like the extended minutes that tonite's win required of the starters along with the minimal minutes given to the limited bench we now all of the sudden seem to have - of course, that tends to happen when you don't do what is neccessary to keep your most valuable bench player and then try to replace him with your very athletic shooting guard who plays hard but has a limited basketball IQ.
