again...bench keeps lead....pushes it up...starters return and proceed to blow it. when is this going to get fixed?

[jadams5214]

Is anyone surprised by this performance so far?  I must admit watching the Portland game I thought the team was beyond giving up big leads especially at home against horrible teams.  Cannot even fathom how they can come out in their first home game in quite awhile and play such putrid defense giving up 60 points.

The C's needed to come out and put the Knicks away early, showing that their home court dominance was back and the defensive intensity was ready to reappear at home.  Obviously that didn't happen and it appears the C's problems are nowhere near solved at this point.  

The Knicks are a horrid team and the C's just let them score at will --- shocking display of putrid defensive basketball at home against an inferior team once again...

[Kiorrik]

ahhhwwwww I missed the "crazy shot" my screen has gone black

It was a nice dunk.

Ahhh

[bello_man09]

lol, relax they still have a whole half of basketball left. Yes, they played horrible defense, but that doesn't mean they can't pick it up in the second half.

Plus, it's common for teams to struggle in their first game back at home after a road-trip, it's well-known.

Although it doesn't make it easier to see that Rodriguez is 4/5 from the field and has 5 assists and 4 rebounds.

i just think it is boston expecting a crap team to lay down after they jump on them..problem is they don't...and what is with playing so poorly at home? geez

or letting harrington come in and run the court scoring 15 easy easy points

So, did Doc make effective adjustments for once?

10:1 against. 

Also, I'm now reading about military rations, and I don't know what brought me to this.

1.  Doc should be shot for sitting Walker all year. He should still be on our team, making contributions.

2. Perkins' defense is atrocious. Awful. UUUGly.

[Donoghus]

12,000th rebound.  Atta boy, KG!

[USG]

Talk about a lucky bounce.

[Donoghus]

All we have to do is improve on the defensive end.

Their D can't stop us.
