Hornets (12-6) at Celtics (21-2) 12/12

Perk must get his head into the game.

[Chief]

I'd like to see POB play with the 1st string once this season.

[BudweiserCeltic]

Horrible half. We're lucky to be in the game.

[RebusRankin]

KG looks much better. They need to go to him more.
We're turning it over too much and missing way to many bunnies.

[crownsy]

good game so far, need to clean up the turnovers and we'll be alright.

Nice thing is, even though were not playing well offensivly, this game is at our pace right now.

[GroverTheClover]

As good as Rondo is, CP3 just blows him out of the water. My goodness..

[ManUp]

A terrible half of basketball for the Cs.

12 turnovers in a half is unacceptable.

The coaches definitely have a lot to talk about.

[houlana]

horrible half.
were very fortunate to be down by 1.
perk needs to step up, sloppy hands.
and the rebounding by the team at the end, come on guys

[Redz]

The Hornets do an excellent job clogging the middle and stopping penetration.  They're closing really quick on the ball. 

The two teams are matched up really well tonight.  Everything's being contested on both ends.

Should be an excellent half.

Chris Paul is fun to watch

[BudweiserCeltic]

The refs have been awful too. Ray's shot looks a bit flat... Rondo is not attacking (for example, triple team on Garnett with Paul included, and Rondo still tries to give him the ball instead of driving through the lane). Pierce is playing well.

[Dybdal]

Can anyone give a recap of what went down though the first 2 qtrs? Just woke up.

Really not much.  Celts made some turnovers. Hornets went up a bit. Pierce hit a couple of 3's...Celts came back, now they're flip-flopping. 

It'll be a tight one.

[Cman]

When are the refs going to call a foul?

Once Chris Paul checks back in....

[Dybdal]

Well that dosnt say alot about what happend during the first half.

How did the team get into such a deep end in regards to fouls?
How has Tony Allen, Kevin Garnett and Rajon Rondo played thus far?
Who's winning the battle of the boards?

[Dybdal]

And how was Late Game James treated during the Ring ceramony? (what happend) and is he being boo'ed during the game?
