I'm expecting Ray to have a huge game tonight.   Reddick will learn a lesson or 2 tonight.

A must win.

Without a doubt.

TP FL for the preview!

I really don't know what to expect of this game. I could say that Ray will go crazy tonight and hit all his shots, like House, that Pierce will have a big game and that the Celtics defense will make Orlando struggle, which would mean a blowout win for the Celtics...

... or the Celtics could decide to play with no energy, no heart, no desire and get embarrassed by the Magic.

I really don't know and I guess that's why it makes this game exciting. I'll try to watch it even though tipoff is at 2:00 am here.

Go Celtics, please win!

I think they are going to come out with a good amount of energy as Doc made sure they stayed off their legs yesterday.   It would be nice if Moore could give us some solid minutes so  we have another big in the rotation.

If they don't come out with the defensive intensity from the opening tip off we will likely see another loss. If Rondo doesn't come out with the focus we need from him... Same result. If we lose this one you can start making changes to your recording priorities on your DVR because you will have plenty of time to watch those shows you have been neglecting.

LOL. I was telling everyone I knew that Crawford was going to be on this game. NBA wants this series going 7 so of course they throw the biggest home crowd antagonizer in the league on the game.

The Celtics were underdogs going in that series and they are more underdogs than ever for game 4, according to ESPN's Accuscore :
 


May the Celtics prove this prediction wrong tonight!

My workup for Game 4:

Paul Pierce, Rajon ROndo, and Ray Allen show up and outplay Rafer Allston, Courtney Lee, and Hedo Turkoglu. It is upsetting that this has not happened thus far. On the ball defense will be key so that the pick and rolls Orlando run has less of a chance to work. The energy must be there from the start.

Also I would consider starting Scalabrine in place of Glen Davis because Boston wins 80% of their road games when Scalabrine starts. He matches up against Rashard Lewis. Also Glen Davis and Mikki Moore come in off the bench to give the C's an advantage.

The C's need to run the ball, and limit turnovers.

This is a winnable game.
Wins are few, times are hard. Here is your bleeping St Patricks Day Card.

Ray, Paul and Rondo need to attack the basket for most of the game. That's the remedy for these bad shooting nights. Get to the line, drain some FT's and get your groove back that way.

Allow Perk and Baby to defend Howard straight up, no double teaming. I'd rather see Dwight Howard beat us than Turkoglu and Rashard Lewis burying threes on us. Even Redick has been getting into the habit.

Getting out to a good start is a must tonight, the Magic are going to come out amped and it is up to the Celtics to get the crowd out of it early.  If they let the Magic start well it is going to be hard to stop them..  It is better to never let them going.

The Celtics need to attack the rim, they can't settle for jump shots tonight.  That has been a problem with this team.  Attacking the rim will get the Magic bigs in foul trouble, get our guys some easy looks.

Let go out and get this one C's
