Celtics (0-0) at Magic (0-0) Game 1 5/16

[RMO]

They need to drop that continuation rule... or only allow the continuation rule to be in place around X amount of feet from the basket.

I hope it's something they discuss in the offseason and set some rules.  Too subjective at this point.

[4THQTR]

Boom!

Ray Ray!

Just as I said: Withstand that magic run and you're good!

Celtics back to executing on both ends of the floor

[tgreanier]

wow, garnett did good there.....but gotta give it to the pg....perk is doing good on howard...for all his other bad things.....he is doing good there..!

Personally, Ill take Perk doing that well and nothing else for the rest of the series. Shutting Howard down is like scoring points yourself.

Granted, Perk could be a little sharper ;-)

[Neurotic Guy]

Nothing casual, nothing fancy now.  Stay tough!  Extend this lead.

[Frezz]

Crisp passes and ball movement, no stupid turnovers and the lead balloons to 16. Beautiful.

The Big 4 looking nice.

[snively]

Orlando's offense is horrible. Easy to defend right now.

Not enough movement, no penetration ... not forcing the defense out of position.

Good call earlier on the flukiness of their offensive success with Nelson and Carter hitting deep pull-up Js.

And as much as the league would like to deny that there are "star calls," how does Pierce get that continuation call when Rondo's done that about 25 times without getting a single call?

[Rondo_is_better]

Perks knee is obviously killing him.

[Who]

Pierce has only taken 5 shots + 7 FTs to get his 15 points.

The rest of the team is 15-44 from the field for 45 points.

[ACF]

up 24!  Shuttleworth strikes!

Not yet 

[RJ87]

Perks knee is obviously killing him.

yup.

[misha]

Now we are talking!!

howard's post game is so awful. one dimensional player like i've always said.

[Tai]

Good job by the Celtics to weather that run the Magic started with Nelson. I was nervous for a second.

From 3 point lead to a 18 point lead? Right now, the C's are showing they realize they're in the playoffs and not the regular season. I like.
