Celtics (6-1) at Mavericks (3-2) 11/8

Every single screen Tyson Chandler sets is blatantly illegal. It's not even close. How has he not been called for one offensive foul yet?!

They haven't been calling much tonight.

Which should be to our advantage.. its our kind of game

I realize that, but it's instructional video material: he sets picks with his back, moves, holds and pushes off -- all on the same play!

[snively]

Our pick and roll coverage has been very poor.  Terry, Kidd and Barea each did damage.

Has anybody noticed any ill effects playing a back-to-back on the road? Do any of the older Celts seem to be lacking any hop in their step? Ray front rimmed a couple, didn't he?

Just looked at the numbers.

We lead in:
Steals (6-3)
Rebounds (25-20)
Turnovers (7-10)

We're basically losing just because we shoot 34.7 percent (abysmal) and they're shooting well above average (55.3%).

That'll even out a bit, so lets hope it happens in time. By law of averages, we're due in this second half to hit some crazy amount of shots :p

LET'S GO CELTICS!!!

[rsan]

They aren't showing age just lack of discipline at times on the defensive end and shots ain't falling. They aren't getting run out of the building or anything

Is anyone else utterly disgusted by the new Mcdonalds Mcrib commercial that is on every 2 minutes?

[j804]

Anybody thats watching CSNE broadcast any word on if the Babys alright? last thing we need is him to go down for an extended period of time 

[Donoghus]

Mavericks sideline reporter is a joke.

They decided not to show any commercials at all anymore on ILP. I hate it! It's just some random screen with a ball and an NBA logo and some spotlight going from left to right and back.

GIVE ME COMMERCIALS DAGNABBIT!!!

... did I just say that?

[Dolomite133]

Think it might be time to sign another backup center?

Haha. I meant disgusted by the way... You don't want to see this, just a bunch of people dancing and plowing down an extremely unhealthy sandwich.

Kg playing great defense...

[Fafnir]

Nice run for the first half of the quarter, gotta keep it up.

[Meadowlark_Scal]

JO even said it the other day, he needs to get his conf up, get a few more post passes...to get his grooove...be a part of the O...gotta body chandler a bit more...

Posting up, especially with our two weaker post players against very good post defenders isn't something the C's to do.

no big deal, it isn't like they are listening to either of us....i just think more post play, leads to more easy hoops, more fouls on them, and more weak side rebounds for us....if we go for them...instead of all this outside shooting.

Not when your post players are over matched.

Ya, why...Dallas is a team that is world renown for it's great defense...how could i forget that....
