Celtics (50-21) at Timberwolves (17-56) 3/27

[Roy H.]

The O'neals can't get back fast enough. A little less Baby and a lot less Kristic will do wonders for this team.

Yeah, I can't wait for the real centers to get back.  Krstic was clearly playing way over his head, grandiose proclamations of some to the contrary.

The Celts need to come out strong in the third; this quarter has been uninspired.

[Megatron]

Teams start playing badly when they are up by 25.

Thats just the way the world works.

Teams are going to go on runs, we should win this game, I expect us to push the lead once again after halftime.

[CelticSooner]

This team plays high level basketball when they feel like it. 13 point lead at the half? 

[lovely_20]

I'm amazed at the amount of green in the crowd tonight.

[Megatron]

Big Baby airball to end the half lol.

No wonder we have the worst offense in the league.

[celticinorlando]

brutal second quarter. team decided 18 foot jumpers and out were the best options and allowed the t sucks back in the game

[ejk3489]

Ugh, Rondo comes back in the game and our lead goes down to 14.

Oh wait...

[celticinorlando]

i would say i feel good about a 13 point lead on a bad team..but this team has a history of blowing these types of leads this season

[Spilling Green Dye]

what the heck?!  Glen Davis has shot more shots (2 for than anyone else on the Celtics in the first half.  I'd rather see Ray or Paul shoot a fadeaway jumper than watch Davis shoot another open jump shot.

Oh wait...

We played like any other team would play if they were up 25.

Im not worried, thats just what happens.

Why penetrate and risk injury or get hurt when your up 25.

Settle for easy jumpshots.

Doc really has to have a talk with the Big 3.

Baby is getting out of control, he just put up and airball.

I dont understand how this guy has become the focal point of our offense, hes literally the #1 option for this team offensively whenever he is on the floor.

I think getting back Shaq & JO will help Krstic. Right now he's being asked to be something his not, which is be a physical defensive presence. The additions will allow him to go up against second stringers and his finesse game will probably be better for it.

[j804]

It's not even looking mental anymore but more physical, we come out fresh to start the game super pumped playing motivated then into the second quarter we look dead tired sleepwalking chucking up bricks.

[GDAbraham]

Big leads are big leads. I know we're trying to get out of a funk, but rolling the eyes at the Celtics because it's not a 50 point lead is just adding to the storm of negativity. Elite teams don't always blow out bad teams. I think the Wolves pushed the Lakers to the limit earlier this season and they had huge size advantage. I'm just glad they're actually playing which wasn't at all the case in the Bobcats game.

[celticinorlando]

glen davis came in and the lead dropped b/c he has several craptastic long jumpers
