How are you feeling about game 2?

[Redz]

I feel great.  Orlando sucks - we just sucked worse in Game 1.

The Magic have it in their heads that they're going to lose.  They'll figure out a way.

[2short]

Personally I'm very confident.  I think Howard is the best big man in the nba (maybe still duncan) but without nelson I have little use/fear of orlando.  I don't think van gundy is that good and our guards should be able to outplay them big time.  They have no one to guard pierce etc etc.  I think this series is a better match up than the last for the celtics.
Perk is proving his worth so far in the playoffs.  He does arguably the best job in the nba on howard.

[Celtics17]

You are right on Perk doing the best job in the NBA of guarding Howard. Perk is the best low post defender in the game and that includes Howard! Tonights game and for that matter the rest of the series worries me. Rashard Lewis and Turkoglu are matchup nightmares for us. If Rajon comes back to the series though we still have a good chance.

ive chalked off the loss by now, i feel good and confident. however if we go down 2 thats when ill start to worry.

Yeah, I really would love to see him and LeBron tested.  I think it's pretty likely that both are on roids or HGH.

For some strange reason unknown to me,i feel if we went down 2 games we will still win this series.

And when I get the chance to talk to jessica simpson, I'm sure se will go out with me
Like your optimism though, tp

[Fafnir]

Anxious. We need this game badly. Most of all I'd like to see the C's come out and flat stomp a team. Its been too long since they've done that.

agree with you...would love to se an old fashion big win....but i am afraid it will be a battle until the end again...no doubt that a loss tonight pretty much ends the season...i hope the C's know that they can't play slow and expect to win tonight

I feel look a schoolboy on his way to the principal's office knowing I'm a darned good student and only did something wrong once, and no one knew it was me, b/c I flushed the evidence, so I'm probably gonna get an award or a kudos of some sort or be offered a position as hall monitor, or be asked to write a feature story in the school newspaper on the effects of kidney beans on the Galapagos Islands, but deep down inside me, I know once in 3rd grade I wrote a quasi swear word on Suzi Margoles's locker in Highlighter and it wouldn't come out and maybe after all these years they've figured it out, but again it could just be that my dad sent in my gym shorts b/c I forgot them today, or maybe the principal needs help defragmenting his hard drive, because I am handy with computers after all, or maybe he wants change for a five, because he knows about the paper route I have that I run before school and I always always always have change on me, small bills only of course.

yeah I feel pretty good about this one.

Make good money on your route?

That all said, the last quarter and a half encouraged me to stick by my prediction of the Celtics 6 games. I look for the Celtics to be coming home from Orlando at 2-2 and taking games 5 and 6. Nothing really has changed for me and I'm pretty sure they win, possibly by double digits tonight.

This is exactly what I told a friend earlier after the Game One loss. I haven't lost confidence that we win tonight, split in Orlando, and win the next two after that.
