Lakers (2-2) at Celtics (2-2) Game 5 6/13

[Andy Jick]

ron artest = most over-rated player in the nba. 

no disrespect to you AJ...but who thinks ron is an nba player, he is an nba hatchet man..pro hacker..

He's even overrated at that...

[misha]

We are +6 but I feel like we missed a chance to have a much bigger lead. Lakers scored so many points from our turnovers and offensive rebounds.

[FallGuy]

Glad they are up 6, bt man what a sloppy quarter. Should be up 15 at least. Rondo's turnovers singlehandedly keeping Lakers in the game and once again they get ZERO at the end of both the first and second quarters. I have never seen a team that runs worse plays at the end of a quarter than this one.

If they cut the turnovers they should win this one.

Rondo's turnovers suck, and he's been bad but the offensive rebounds are equally important.

Like you, I think if they keep up the intensity and clean up a couple things, they'll win.

[LarBrd33]

Gotta be honest ... Incredibly frustrated.  We should be up 30 the way we are shooting.  They have something like 8 offensive boards that have all resulted in easy second chance shots...  That with our 10 turnovers is infuriating

[Drucci]

Up 6 at halftime, I will take it, but we should be up by 15 at least. Too many careless turnovers (a player looking right, the other making a pass to his left, stuff like that, wild passes by Rondo) and a terrible last possession where Rondo was looking to pass to Pierce who was looking on the other side of the court and didn't see him.

We shot lights out but got no free throws with basically the same number of drives in the paint as the Lakers, who got 9 to our 2... uhm uhm.

Pierce is hot, let's keep riding him! And keep that great D, hopefully Kobe still forces!!

[Meadowlark_Scal]

well, before you blame rondo for turnovers..we all wanted him to psh it....who is running with him.....TA will...sheldon would...bbd will...not many others.....

[Yugocelt]

time to change the channel in time for this pathetic fisher segment.

TP, I was think the exact same thing the second they mentioned it.  Time for some PS3.

[snively]

Boston very sloppy, but LA looks completely out of sorts offensively.  The Boston D is truly powerful when engaged.

[Andy Jick]

Why can't we get a human interest story about Brian Scalabrine at halftime? 

[Change]

Pierce was hot & our All star (Rondo) decides to takes contested layup inside on one possession, and a little too late for the last second shot.

Every play in second half should run for Pierce. He should run the team.

[RebusRankin]

Reffing still sucks. We need to cut our our turnovers nad no more Laker offensive rebounds.

[celticinorlando]

take away the turnovers on the second half

[Change]

well, before you blame rondo for turnovers..we all wanted him to psh it....who is running with him.....TA will...sheldon would...bbd will...not many others.....

Push and kick. Pierce was wide open. Push and turnover is a lost possession.

[Casperian]

*scratches head*  2 questions: How are we only up 6, and how the hell are we even up 6?

1) We didn´t play good
2) The Lakers played even worse

[Andy Jick]

I still believe Magic just had a bad case of the flu...
