Celtics (40-21) at Bucks (33-29) 3/9

[JHTruth]

Celtics need great games from KG and Pierce to pull it off tonight. Those two don't bring it, Bucks win comfortably..

[PPTheZodiac]

Interesting game, especially the Rondo - Jennings matchup.
Go Celtics! Play hard and focus on defense for 48 minutes!

Bucks are rolling right now. They won their last nine out of ten.  They're not any sort of push overs.

So, with that in mind  blowing them out would make me feel pretty good.

Win, win, win...just freakin' win.

I don't want to make everyone at home feel bad, but the bucks just sent around a special promotion code yesterday that gets you 1/2 off lower bowl seats.  30 bucks for lower bowl behind C's bench (about 20 rows up).  And there are seast to be had! 

Should be a good game...the Bucks are surging and Bogut is playing better than I ever gave him credit for.  Jennings has hit a wall but he'd finding ways around it and taking care of the ball.  Salmons has been huge and Delfino has been a fairly consitent #4 option.  Plus, Luke Ridnour is one of the best back up PGs in the league.  C's 2nd unit might have some trouble (surprise surprise).

Here's to a good game and a C's W.

Some Celtics faithful better get down there. : )

Looking forward to this one.  Bucks are one of the more fun, young teams to follow.

Watch out for Ilyasova.

[Drucci]

Should be a tough but fun game!

I'm really worried about the Perk/Bogut matchup, Perk has big time troubles defending Bogut and he could explode for a 30 points game so if Perk can't contain him, we have to make sure Ilyasova and his teammates are not getting on fire.

I think the key will be in the Rondo/Jennings matchup. Rondo has to do a good job on Jennings so he only shoots from midrange or long distance because it will kill the Bucks if he gets into a battle with Rajon since Jennings is on a big shooting slump.

Anyway, we will have to play much better than in the Wizards game, but I do feel good about this one, I predict a great night for the bench and especially for Nate.

I will catch a replay tomorrow. TP FL and let's go C's, let's make it 5 in a row!

Another thread, another Tommy Point.

Do people here remember to give FL credit for her work by way of TP's? You should. Let's get her to 3000.

GO CELTS!

Still 46 to go.

Wow I though the place was going to be loud before I knew this.

They need to take the crowd out early in this one. There will be no comeback tonight if we fall down early.

There will be a crowd and they will be loud for certain.  Especially Squad 6...the Bogut sponsored seaon ticket holders who earn their keep by being loud and on their feet the whole game.  Kind of a throwback to the Buckets Brigade but wilder (Milwaukee style).

I am looking forward  to the Finley - Stackhouse matchup where one of them turns to dust.  Stack has been getting his legs back under him and proving the Bucks to be surprisingly deep.  Between him, Ridnour, Ilyasova, and Bell...decent and capable vets on the 2nd unit. 

Getting excited!

[PLamb]

I will continue my prediction and say this is the fifth of a minimum seven game win streak tonight

Oh, and I already got to see the Celtics on the road; at MSG vs the Knicks. I even got to meet Steve Weinman, so no worries.

we need to match the Bucks energy....I remember Bogut killing Perk last time they played.

[gojko]

Bucks rolling well... 9-1 in last 10 games.
Celtics will need good bench if they want to win.
Bench was terrible in last game against WAS....
