He's certainly lives up to the word "Pro".

No PT for long stretches of time and then he goes out and plays like this tonight, anyway. Very impressive.

The guy did a great job on both ends of the floor. I have not been a fan, but that was one good quarter of basketball, from the energy to the good shots and another solid job fighting over the picks.

While I appreciate his tribute to tribute to Gary coleman, the shots he is taking are horrible.  Lucky he is making them

You don't want him taking wide open jumpshots?

Well, he's on fire right now, so I can't blame him for shooting.

More impressive for me are the defense and the passing.  He's made some spectacular passes out there.

the only wide open jump shot I saw him take, he missed.  I'm seeing him taking well contested shots with hands in his face.  He is making them so you can't complain, but they are unquestionably bad shots

  • You know my methods, Watson.
I don't care if he shoots them underhanded or standing on one leg, as long as they go in within the framework of the offense. 

The Celtics have always had that heroic player step up in their history (Darren Daye in a 2 OT win in Milwaukee or Derek Smith in game 5 against the Pacers come to mind).  Nate is having one of those games, that should we pull this out, will go down in that category.  I'm lovin' every second of him - we NEED that emotion, not matter what JVG says...

I totally disagree that Robinson took bad shots. Those were excellent shots in the framework of the offense.

I'll be surprised if he scores more than 2 points in the second half.  He was big early though.  No doubt

Me too, but I love the fire he brings, the moxie.  He gets the crowd into it.  That is important.  He clearly is a guy that loves to play basketball, and is competitive about it.  That is a Celtics player, if you ask me.  Now, his BBIQ may be an issue, but his athleticism, passion, and guts are not.  Go NateROB!!!
