God, Baby stop trying to post up.
I want to see him try and post up Perk. Should be entertaining.. :D

yeah Perk would just think "really, he's gonna try that spin move? really?" denied.

i don't know why BBD often plays bad as a starter when he plays well off the bench despite heavy minutes. i think Rondo needs to be more aggressive scoring-wise for this game. we're coming up with nothing good so far.

I know Doc likes to run the offense inside out, but the ball never comes out when you go to Baby.  2-8, 0 assists, 2 turnovers.

Is it fair to say that the celts have absolutely zero post game?  Maybe they have not had on in  awhile. Krstic  is certainly not a post guy. I am so confused.

Hopefully rondo gets interested in the second half and pierce can stay on the court.

Only down one, need to keep Pierce and Allen in the game and get them going. Avoid the Dancing Bear.

Krstic actually is something of a post guy against smaller bigs. 

KG is a fine post guy, as he's a threat to score and pass.

BBD is a good post guy against a good match-up when he's got it going, but nowhere near a go-to option down there.

Put Rondo in the post. He'll school Lawson. If doubled he can kick it to Big Baby for a 25 footer. :'(

  • Be the posts you wish to see in the world.
Not a terrible first, all things considered.  We're very lucky to be playing Denver tonight. 

If we can pull this out, today will be a great day for us in the standings at least.  At least 2 of the Big 4 are gonna have to blow up in the second to get there, though.

We never had a post game. Pierce was the closest thing we have had to a who can post up his guy.

Refs have been worse than BBD

Line of the night so far. I love when baby thinks he is the only player on the court.

the thing is though, this is a team of tough honest players who speak their mind to each other, and yet Baby keeps jacking shots up. So either they like it like this or Baby would be getting his head torn off, which apparently he's not, so it's perplexing.
