This team can make up points fast we need to keep up the defensive intensity.

Yea they have a lot of perimeter shooters and they'll be getting a lot of looks in Toronto's quick transitions.

rondo and perk in the first quarter equals a good game, esspecially when PP and ray hit their first 3's.

Great quarter - everyone's hitting, moving the ball well, great defense.  Most importantly, 5 steals and only 1 turnover(!).  Plus O'Neal is looking hobbled and Bargnani's in foul trouble.   And KG hit a 3!  Best first quarter of the season.

Doc trying the lineup with no starters in it again.  Good way to get the Raptors back in it by halftime.

I really don't understand Doc's rationale there.  Last year we rarely had all of the Big 3 out at the same time, never mind all of the starters.  I understand trying to get their minutes down, but you can still manage it that one of them can be in the game at all times.

Good half by the Allens.  Ray feeling it from deep and Good Tony.  That's a good combo to have on the floor at the same time.

the "threeless" bench allowed the game to get to 6 then built it back up to 10, then ray came back in. i don't understand what is going so wrong.

Yeah, it's hard to argue with Doc's subs/rotations when we're up 18 or whatever it is. Plus, I think given the nature of an NBA game, "putting the hammer down" is overrated.

That Raptors comeback was a little odd, wasn't expecting that.

Great work in the first quarter by the Celtics and great work to stop the Raptors run and to build their lead back up.

Toronto are in tatters. Feels like garbage time already.
