 Couldn't watch the game.

 What was the minute breakdown on who guarded him roughly.

 Did we try Rondo on him? Or bradley? Wafer? did anyone do a decent job? Or was he just to much tonite.

Andy Bernard doesnt lose constests. He wins them, or he quits them because they're unfair.

Honestly man i'm sorry I didnt see the game. The few clips I saw it looked like Rondo and Ray were on him

We tried everyone. Bradley, Ray, Rondo.

Ellis is a better version of Aaron Brooks.

Undefendable and unstoppable when they are hitting shots.

You just cant stop players like that, luckily we got the win.

Monta ellis is a brilliant player and he had both the drive and the 3 pt shot going at once.

The defence was a little bit all over the place but I thought rondo was a bit lazy defensively despite the steal count.

By looking at the box score you would think no one.

I think it was mostly Rondo, and he made the mistake too many times of trying to cheat off him, but to GS's credit they found Ellis with the pass very consistently.  Knowing Ellis is their best scorer, Rondo should have stuck tight and let anybody else beat them.

When Monta Ellis is on fire, even if you put the NBA all defensive team on him, it wouldn't matter. It's a good thing the Celtic's still won.

I think Ellis is like Dwight, Kobe, DWade, Lebron - it doesn't matter if they go crazy scoring. As long as we can stop everyone else on the team, we'll win the game.

I thought it was interesting that right after the game ws over KG and Ellis were in what seemed to be a very mutually respectful discussion.

Actually KG was right in his ear in abrotherly way and they seemed to be genuinely appreciative of each other's persona.

That's what happens when you trade away your interior defense...guys are getting to the hoop at-will

" Who" did? Well no wonder, I respect his knowledge of the game and everything, but the dude couldn't guard a chair. Not even Yi's chair.  ;D
