Well.  Think we can hang on with only a seventeen point lead?  Pretty amazing first half overall.

I would question using the term 'comeback' (what that JVG?) in reference to what the Magic have done in this half.  Comeback from 24 to 17 doesn't quite meet the definition.

Up 17 at halftime, I would have preferred +22 but I may be too greedy.  :P

Loved all the hustle plays which resulted in points and prevented a Magic comeback.

Being up 17 points is nothing against this Orlando team though. Gotta play the same way in the 3rd and step on their throats. The 3rd QT has been the specialty of the C's in the playoffs, let's hope they keep it up.

Don't relax/let down and finish them!!

We played about as well as we have all post season that half.  Orlando looked lost.  Stan is clueless. Could this be any more fun?

As long as the defense doesn't rest, we'll be fine.

GREAT defensive half of basketball, fellas. Save Tony Allen's mishaps guarding Nelson, a perfect half of defense.
Coined the CelticsBlog term, "Euromistake."

"The" makes a difference with that search. Go Glen!

Watching Rondo is pure enjoyment. He has been the best player in this years NBA playoffs.
Once you are labeled 'the best' you want to stay up there, and you can't do it by loafing around.

Terrific half there - the Celtics look focused and absolutely unstoppable.  A long way from over though, Orlando can get points in bunches if we let them.

And I'm definitely on board with the "Dancing Bear" thing  :)
