Did anyone else feel a little better when they realized this would be a Sunday night game and not a Sunday afternoon game?

Yes, we can't seem to win in the daylight.

Ths might sound crazy but I'd like to see Mikki Moore on Lewis some tonight.

sounds crazy...

do explain your rationale =)

Ok. I thought Doc made a mistake, in game 2, leaving Scals on Lewis so long after the game was in hand. You could easily see, at the end of the game, Rashard figured Scals out. It continued into game 3 when Lewis killed Scals in the post. This is where Mikki could be a good match-up. Moore is a hustler, so I think he could stay with Lewis on the perimeter. Plus his length would bother Lewis inside.

If Doc is smart, he'll give Lewis multiple defensive looks. A little Big Baby, Scals, Moore, plus Rondo doubling here and there.
Once you are labeled 'the best' you want to stay up there, and you can't do it by loafing around.

Rondo and Pierce need to set the tone early tonight in my opinion.  If they play well we win going away.  Oh yeah it would be nice if Ray got going too.

I just hope that the Celtics bring their A+ game tonight.

Tipoff is at 2:00 am here in France and I must wake up at 10 am tomorrow so I hope this game will be worth my estimated 5 hours of sleep. I hope that the Celtics play good defense and make the extra pass on offense in order to win this game and tie the series. Otherwise I would be frustrated... and tired. And the week couldn't start any worse.

Let's go C's, can't wait till tipoff!

Thats TWO GAMES in a row where Dwight Howard was shown shooting half court hail mary shots pregame.

Is someone just not telling him that maybe practicing a 12 foot jump shot, or practicing a free throw might be more important?  a post move?  something.
