Clippers (24-40) at Celtics (46-15) 3/9

[get_banners]

for those watching the game...is this a case of LA just hitting everything, or are we playing that poorly?

[CaliCeltics]

68% shooting for the half... 68%, they're percentage is higher than the amount of points they have. That alone tells you our defense just won't be the same...

[droponov]

This is just one of those games where the opponent is making EVERY shot. Can't do much.

They're making dunks and open 3s. Are you expecting other opponents in other games to miss these types of shots?

They wouldn't be playing like this against good teams. They're not the Miami Heat. Quite the opposite, actually. They play well against good teams and quite bad against bad teams. Are you people surprised about what's going on? The Clip are shooting lights out.

I can't understand your point any more. I thought it was that the Celtics were playing well but the Clippers just wouldn't miss. You're now saying Boston is playing badly?

If that's the case, I agree. Awful defense, incredibly soft. It's tough to play good defense when your big man rotation features Nenad Krstic, Jeff Green and Troy Murphy though, so there's that.

What a terrible half...

Clippers wont be able to continue that stellar shooting % for the whole game though

[Megatron]

Do the C's know they are going to need HCA over the Lakers if they want to win a title?

Beating the Bulls without HCA is going to be a challenge also.

They play like they dont care sometimes, when they get sent home crying once again after getting booted out of the playoffs I hope they look back to games like this as a reminder.

I never said the Celtics were playing well. It's a little bit of them play terrible and the Clip playing great ball.

Because they're totally guarding mo williams.

[CoachBo]

Funny. What's Griffin got? 8.

Mo Williams, on the other hand, absolutely owns Rondo.

[LilRip]

shooting %s:

Clips 68% (71% from downtown)
Celts 40%

Clips 60
Celts 42

No reminders. If every bad game from the last regular season would have been a reminder, they should have had their houses painted with sticker post-its

The only good thing is that Brick Ballhog Davis isn't playing. We'd be down like 40 points if he were playing.

There always is a 2nd half to every basketball game.

BBD had a terrific season so far, why so hard with him?

[letsgoblue86]

DeAndre Jordan is having the game of his life, he'd be 2 for 7 right now if shaq was playing.
