you guys aren't going to believe this, donny has a close relationship with ray allen.

All these broadcasts and he's never mentioned that one.

I was watching since the start of the 4th quarter, when the team was up by 15.
I´m glad I didn´t have to watch another loss, otherwise I would´ve taken the month off from watching games (I´m starting to become superstitious). The 4th quarter performance wasn´t great, but I take what I can get.
In the summer of 2017, I predicted this team would not win a championship for the next 10 years.

3 down, 7 to go.

So Kapono is a 70% three point shooter but probably better if he is open? Really Donnie?

I do not care that they are going to win today. This is a mediocre team at best right now. Almost blowing a 20-point lead in the fourth quarter versus a Toronto team without O'Neill and Calderon is just ridiculous.

Vinnie with his usual pessimism. Are you ever happy?

They barely beat a mediocre team with two of its top players out. I think I am going to go out and have a parade. Yes, I know. We were missing Perkins. As for Donny Marshall, he talks to much, loves himself (he actually said today that he was a great foul shooter) and he stinks.

Well it wasn't a pretty 4th, but we won, and it looks like our backcourt is back on track.  No more trading them, please!

Fourth quarter felt like the fight in Rocky 1. And we were Apollo.

Back on track.
Even if it was ugly.

Anyone besides me feel less than confident that we are going to blow away the Raptors tomorrow night? Does anyone think they will shoot this badly on uncontested jumpers and 3's two nights in a row?  Anyone??

things we learned:

1. no lead is safe with the C's right now...2 or 20...they are going to cause us all stomach problems

2. eddie house: NO MORE POINT GUARD..DOC I AM BEGGING YOU TO SUB PRUITT FOR RONDO AND EDDIE FOR RAY!!!PLEASE LISTEN

3. inside game today was bad...garnett is missing a ton of shots

4. win is a win...streak is over....first NBA team to win 30 games...and a game behind the cavs DESPITE A HORRID losing streak...

5. gotta hang in a keep winning...every team will slump...cavs included....

Rondo is averaging 3 turnovers a game for almost a month and a half now.

Yeps. That's something that must be solved.

"If you let him (Kapono) take that shot he'll hit at least 7 out of 10 of them, especially if he's open"-Donnie

So Kapono is a 70% three point shooter but probably better if he is open? Really Donnie?

I think he meant Kapono is a 70% 3pt shooter when left open on that shot.

Well I did say on Friday that I just wanted a win, I didn't care how we got it.

Well it was nice to get this win today, but I think it's clear with how that fourth quarter went that there is no way in hell that the Celtics problems are solved.

I expect KG to bounce back.
