This is a better effort so far... It was a common statement during this slump that the total team effort will come before the wins do... This is the closest they've been to achieving that.

Whether or not the win comes is almost secondary right now, because it seems like they've been on the same page more in this game then any other during the skid. The wins will start coming.

Good to see Ray hitting though.

I am so happy to see Ray Allen hitting shots and the Celtics playing D fairly well and Rondo going to the basket...

and Gabe coming in for Rondo.

People should try to not be so emotionally invested, positively and negatively, towards particular players. Frequently that causes your eyes to play tricks with you and cloud your judgments, I think.

Scal has been playing very well, Donny was absolutely right.

Good response to the Raptors run. We need to win the third quarter with a more typical Celtic run.

I would have liked to see more Gabe and less House... We could probably be up by 20 if House hadn't stepped foot on the court yet.

Don't get me wrong Scal has been great today, but his performance doesn't compare to Ray's, or Rondo's for that matter.

Besides a couple of dumb fouls and accidentally hurting Pierce, I agree Scal has been playing well.

I can't stand Scal at all, but today has been a very solid performance... no qualifying statement needed from me.

I don't know about all of you, but I'm pretty ready for an MVP Poll.

I like how that Raps announcer
dismissed JVG's "LBJ is better
than Bird" claim. Thank you!

Between Manchester United winning, me going to taco bell after the game, the celtics atleast playing well (and hopefully winning... knock on wood), and the golden globes tonight... this is turning out to be a pretty good day... Waking up at 6 AM to go to work in the middle of a blizzard seems like a distant memory now.
