Lakers (35-16) at Celtics (38-13) 2/10

[PosImpos]

Remarkable, with all of the depth we had to start this year, that we're trying to win games with 7 players right now...but that's the reality we're facing.

I hate losing to the Lakers more than anything else.

I do too. But Lakers should not be too proud of beating a much depleted C's team.

so 7 guys available for sunday? that should be quite fun to watch

I hate losing to the Lakers more than anything else.

Quoted for the truth...there really is nothing worse.

[Drucci]

Ugh... so many momentum-changing plays tonight and we missed all of them. Ray and Paul's wide open 3's, the steal from Pierce, the rebounds... frustrating, so close and yet so far away.

[angryguy77]

Dont care what people think but this is a prim example of how fouls called at key times can screw a team.

Such bs

[celticinorlando]

Danny...make a move...you cant count on JO and Daniels to come back....you gotta add depth

[tgreanier]

I hate losing to the Lakers too, but it happens. This is one of the few times they have lost to the Lakers that I can handle it without too much pain. Depleted team and a fired up Lakers team. Meh. The Lakers still could not put us away for good until late even with some questionable play by the Celtics.

Sunday? Whatever. If they lose, they lose. I am not worried about the Celtics. At all. They will be healthy in the postseason and Danny will do something to strengthen the team soon.

Stop whining, take it like Celtics fans. We played, we lost.

[KCattheStripe]

I'll take a good game loss without Shaq, Semih, 1/2 of Nate, Delonte or Marquis.

[celticinorlando]

looks like i am not watching ESPN tomorrow...this vaunted home stand is going to go down with a 2-3 record

[JohnBagleyValueMeal]

Not good down the stretch.

Paul & Ray have open looks from 3 to tie it, neither one goes down

KG has a layup to go down 1, gets stripped and we're down 5

PP with the steal to try to cut it to 3, throws it away.

Just didn't have enough. The JO signing is just killing us right now.

[ejk3489]

Well they played as good as they could've with only 7-8 players, but it sucks that it sort of tampered with Ray's record. 

Sucks either way.

[ACF]

I can't tell is Steve Kerr is serious with his whole "statement win" thing

LOL

Game 7 all over again.
Ray's night ruined   as Celtics fans file out before the game is even over
