Knicks (19-35) at Celtics (35-19) 2/23

I can't believe the way old-man McGrady just blew by KG. This team is an embarrassment tonight, win or lose.

well i was hoping they would get on a run and close it out....guess not

This is one of Tommy's infamous "rubber room" games.

Time to turn off the lights and swing some baseball bats.

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!!!

How is one game against the Knicks more important in judging our current success, than a 4 game road trip we just had? You can't just ignore that.

Don't you know? Being able to keep negativity flowing is all that matters. Win or lose.

Wait a minute here. There are so many posters who want to ignroe every Celtics bad effort and only focus on the good. This team was great in one game on the trip, good in a second, and mediocre in two others. And tonight they are struggling against one of the worst teams in the NBA. That is not championship caliber.

Well, we aren't the only team struggling tonight. The Cavs just barely beat the Hornets without Chris Paul, and the Lakers are losing to the Grizz in the 3rd quarter.

Oldman McGrady is a former top 5/10 player.

How come the bench can't get Quis that look?

But when people who expected a 0-4 road trip say that nothing has changed after we went 3-1 just because we only lead by 1 point, that is not an objective statement.

[ManUp]

Nice play by Ray!

You do know that McGrady is younger than KG, correct?

Both have bad knees...

[Drucci]

RAY WITH THE DEFENSIVE PLAY!!!

[Atzar]

Did that really just happen?
