It seems like if Rondo isn't penetrating, we've got next to nothing on offense.  I missed the first few minutes, but so far I've been most impressed with Mikki Moore's game.  TA was interesting for a bit, heard Powe was on it early. 

I'm perplexed and concerned.  If you play without focus (i.e., bad passing, turnovers) most of the regular, it's like practicing to play poorly.  Man, I'm just dying for some enthusiasm out there!

Now Rondo hands off the ball to Eddie to bring up the court. Seriously what's going on here?

It's the "No One Knows What the Heck is Going On" offense, patented to confuse first round opponents.

Haha thanks for explaining. I thought it was the cold medicine making me too woozy to understand.

Please pass the cold medicine, this bourbon isn't working . . .   :P

well..i for one dont want to give the 6ers any confidence....i can see them winning a game or 2 vs boston in round one...i am tired of the excuse they can just turn it on when it counts...they didnt show at cleveland and then they stopped playing after getting a 7 point lead tonight...no offense at all and the defense is p--- poor...don't care if it is "meaningless"...against a team you are going to play again when it "does count"...you want to put a seed of doubt in their minds

Are we holding back since it looks like Philly will be our first round foe?

boston has no effort at all...letting lou williams, dalenbart and young run the floor at will is pathetic....what would they be holding back? this has been a trend for awhile now...let teams hang around then try to make a run on them late...i don't like this team's focus or energy right now

The exhibition game canard is nothing but an excuse for terrible basketball at both ends of the floor.

Until I see some remote attempt at effort from this club, I'm not even going to entertain a repeat. It isn't going to happen this way.

i def feel what u sayin..but

do u really think thats this is as good as it gets?

come on celtic's fan..i feel diffrent cause years before ray and kevin got here, on this blog, we was talkin rebuilding.i luv what we doin now...be excitied sir..so many time we never made the playoff or lost in the first round...and thats my reason for hating the new jersey nets.

im enjoyin the ride.

I'm not into alibis. I'm into results - and this bunch isn't producing them.

The level of basketball this team is playing - at a point when the people on the floor should be playing their best basketball of the season - is lazy, it's unmotivated and it's unacceptable.

Injuries do not excuse a total, unmitigated lack of effort on the defensive end of the floor. Neither does a clinched playoff spot, etc. All those things are are cheap excuses for bad basketball.

Coined the CelticsBlog term, "Euromistake."

LOL @ Gabe getting singled out in the huddle. That's the most spotlight he's had on national TV since the Big Baby crying incident.
Tommy: He's got a line about me. Tell him the line.

Mike: Everybody 60 or over knows Tommy as a player. Everybody 40 or over knows Tommy as a coach. Everybody 20 or over knows Tommy as a broadcaster. And everybody 10 or under thinks he's Shrek.

Haha its definitely working. I'm in a pleasant daze now. I doubt anything about this game can get any emotion out of me.
