btw, note the much maligned Davis finished 6/14 with 6 boards. Jump happy early, but got down.

Because he stopped playing hero ball.

Pierce will be fine, must have just tweaked his ankle.

Glen finished with 11 boards and 8 assists.  He almost had a triple double.

Yeah they won and yeah they have the best record in the East but right now Miami, Orlando and Chicago are better teams than Boston. Now let the homerism outrage begin!

Baby ended up with 11 rebounds and 8 assists to go with his 15 points and 2 very big steals.

I was really surprised to hear that at the end of the broadcast.  must have missed the majority of those boards and dishes.  seemed like every Raptor around him got the rebound and that he was more or less his usual blackhole on O.  apparently that wasn't necessarily the case

yea how's that? Orlando barely beat us without Rondo, and we already beat miami twice. The Bulls shouldn't even be in the conversation.

"right now Miami, Orlando and Chicago are better teams than Boston" What else, given injuries? Frankly, dont put a lot of stock in that right now. If Rondo or KG are out in May,

I think hes saying they are better teams because KG is out.

I'll agree with Orlando and Miami but only because of how beat up this team is.... right now!! With better health, Boston's the best team in the league.

unless we are playing against them it doesn't matter right now. If we win our games, a win is a win.

Miami is for sure the better defensive and offensive team in this equation with Boston. Pin those 2 teams up with a healthy Garnett and Rondo and don't be positive the Celtics walk away with the win. I dislike the Celtics but I respect their game, but the homerism aside and tell me you honestly think if those 2 teams played right now, it would come down to the better defensive team and that's clearly Miami RIGHT NOW.

well that's like saying we can beat the lakers if Kobe is injured. Who cares? Unless KG and Rondo are out during the playoffs, it doesn't matter.
