Can someone tell me why the hell the offense is running through Big Baby?

[vinnie]

I am absolutely amazed watching this incredibly poor effort tonight. This team just really seems not to care. I don't care what they say.

man...this is painful

[twinbree]

We lost the 3rd quarter by 1. Last game we lost by 2. Progress!

[celticinorlando]

lose this one and you can just flush the progress made on that west coast trip

[Donoghus]

We need a spark.

C'mon Nate.

I wouldn't go that far. It's not like Ray's performances, or KG's knee looking better just go away if we lose to the Knicks.

whos guarding rodriguez, is rondo getting handled AGAIN on defense?

[ejk3489]

We lost the 3rd quarter by 1. Last game we lost by 2. Progress!

And we've scored over 100 points...progress!

Rondo running the floor.

[celticinorlando]

stop running the o through baby!!

Regardless of the final outcome tonight the apparent progress made on the road trip hasn't carried over to playing in Boston.

The defense has been non existent tonight.  The C's appear unable to stop basic pick and roll basketball or defend the 3 point line.  After the encouraging signs on the road trip it really seemed the team would come out tonight and be fired up.  A big win against a terrible team was the expected start but that obviously hasn't been the case.

Unfortunately it looks like nothing much has changed and that the Portland game was an aberration.

WHERE IS THE DEFENSE this is pitiful!!!

[Chief]

House is a bum.

[vinnie]

At least the Celts are leaving it all out on the floor tonight on the defensive end -- 

[Drucci]

Nice shot by Robinson one on one!

Now I have accepted that we won't get stops in this game, so let's outscore them with 5 minutes left.
