I can't believe how badly we played to finish the quarter. Pathetic.

Cavs went on a 8-0 run after we had the terrible turnovers just after we tied the game. Momentum killers right there.

  • It's not hard to work hard.
If we could hit a few of these open 3's, we might be winning this game.
McHale's favorite ruse is putting paper in the mouths of sleeping teammates. "Try using one of these cocktail napkins," he said. "When just the edge sticks out of a guy's mouth, it looks like he's got fangs. The best part is when he wakes up."

KG is the only one who feels like rebounding today and he is in foul trouble
Oh yeah that made me laugh, he had 0 the first half

I didnt have to check the box score to see who was boxing out and not getting out hustled by Verajo for offensive boards.

Sheed finish the quarter and the deficit goes from 2 to 8. Maybe you want to move your feet on D and run up and down the court. I am praying we just buy him out this offseason.  It has clearly not worked out.

Yup, it was a shame.

Doubly so because it looked like the Celtics were about to take control of the contest. Build a little lead and get some separation from the Cavs.

All we need is ONE good quarter ... we haven't had it yet. We're lucky to still be IN this one. ;)

He's just awful. NO effort at all.

I'd rather see Sheldon in there.

Was just wondering where he's been ... very little offense on the floor right now.

yep - those last couple of offensive possessions were so painful to watch - what the hell did we acquire nate for if not for situations like this game ????????

Didnt think much of Rondo forcing in and putting up hail Mary's. No flow to the offense again. Story of the season.

I don't blame him. You can't reward a guy for scoring 15 points, dishing out 5 assists, and making 4 steals in 20 minutes. What kind of example would that set for the rest of the players?

Nate was hesitant to shoot when he was in there. If he comes back in he should be shooting.

Why? Nate only scored 15 points last game on 5-6 shooting from behind the arc. Doc is very puzzling.

I thought the cavs were supposed to be good. We've played poorly for 3 quarters and are still in the game.
