Celtics (9-4) at Knicks (3-9) 11/22

Nice shot KG. Another thrilling win against another NBA ellite team -- like the Nets and Timberwolves' wins. Unless this team improves 100 percent, it is going to beat no one except the worst teams.

BOO YAH!

[Drucci]

KG FOR THE WIN!

[Jon]

Let's not get carried away.  Today sucked.  But soon enough they'll remind us of why they won it all two years ago.

Think The TWolves will take Garnett for Big Al?

I think we wouldn't have won this game with Big Al. lol

[vinnie]

I hope no one is going to get too excited with a 2-point overtime win against one of the worst teams in the NBA. That was a pathetic performance.

[celticinorlando]

thank you jesus

[Kiorrik]

*sigh*

Finally an end to this thing. I for once am not a happy man. This, to me, is not a win. Sorry for being all negative.

One more thing about the refs: it's not their fault that we nearly lost, but they did make the game a whole lot less fun to watch.

[fairweatherfan]

Ok.  I'll take it.  Nice shot KG.

And Jon, when will that be? This is like the 5th or 6th poor performance in a row and you need to add the Minnesota and Nets wins to that total making it 8 lousy performances out of 14 games this year.

[Celtic]

It wasn't pretty... hell it was downright hideous, but a win is a win. This team has a lot of work to do.

KG hit a shot!  It was a great shot no doubt but let's look at the reality of this team right now ---

The well rested C's needed OT to beat a terrible Knicks team.  KG was limping noticeable for the latter part of the game and can't stay in front of his man or grab rebounds.  The team doesn't play solid defense anymore for entire games, only brief stretches.  On offense they play well for stretches but too often stand around in slow motion until the clock winds down.

This team is in trouble...

Paul Pierce won this game, just like every other close one, great game. Rajon did great as well, but a little bit disappointing on D. Move on guys

i agree. yet.... i can still smile since it is a win and by the end of the season all wins count the same.

i couldnt watch the game, would some one BRIEFLY sum up celtic performances for me please.

i can see from the box score that kg, allen, and wallace shot combined something awful such as 7 for 36. just terrible.

But people are acting like other great teams haven't gone through bad stretches before.  For the first two weeks it was like they couldn't miss and for the last two weeks they're missing everything.  It'll balance out again.  We can hate the fact that Sheed is missing everything in sight; however, that's not a product of his age, it's a product of a slump.  He will start hitting those shots again.  If he had had even a normal game, this game would've been won fairly easily and no one would be complaining.
