boston was off last night also...there is no excuse to come out at HOME on national TV and play this bad

Get sick of these excuses. Injuries are part of the game and great teams overcome them. The Blazers have lost an entire lineups worth of players and are playing well without excuses. The Rockets lost 2 franchise players and are playing well without excuses. The Spurs and Lakers both played back to back last night and pulled out tough wins against decent teams. The Celtics still have 2 Hall of Famers and an additional all star caliber player on the floor tonight. That should be more than enough to overcome a below average Bulls team.
There is no way the Celtics should be losing at home to the 3-13 road team Chicago Bulls.

TP for this one Heavily. Although the game isn't that bad. The Bulls bottom line really stink! They're giving the Celtics their absolute best so far, but yet we're only down 8 @ the half and we're playing extremely poorish.
Based on the 1st half of play I have to say this... "Games like this is the reason Rondo gets overlooked when it comes to All-Star voting". Their playing off him, and when he gets the ball he displays his reluctance to shoot. Ray Allen man is glued to him, so Pierce's double team is coming from Rondo. Also i will like to see Doc insert the youngins to jump for rebounds with the Bulls youngins etc... WE NEED A BACK-UP POINT GUARD that is a shooter/creater/scorer desperately. No excuses we have a open roster spot Danny...lol last before i go back to watching... Scalabrine inconsistency to hit the 3 point shot is the reason we're losing right about now. The same outcome will be if Rasheed was playing also... brb
