great shot selection guys....

[vinnie]

Baby needs to shoot more. He has only taken 11 so far. Lol

[Megatron]

Celtics have got to be the softest and most mentally weak team I have ever seen.

[CoachBo]

It seems like this slump is bigger than one person, or just the perkins trade, or any one injury.  It is almost like clockwork once we get a lead we get complacent and are practically expecting to lose our lead.  It is hard to see after how badly the team has played in the last few weeks that they can just turn it on in the playoffs.  I believe they need to turn things around NOW, not later.

Probably true, and well said.  Welcome to the blog, and TP.

That said, I continue to blame the Perkins trade; Danny felt the need to test the "if it ain't broke, don't fix it" mantra, and it's biting us.

Roy, you're forgetting that top 10 "protected" pick we got from the Clippers...all the money we saved by trading Perk...and we got a terrific offensive Center. How can you ignore all that? Danny got away with highway robbery...there is warrant out for his arrest in OKC.

Well, at least OKC sucks with Perk.  Oh, wait...

That said, Captain for 3!

So far, it's been a typical Perkins night, although the hilarity of watching him throw up a 3 is unique. A putback, a rebound, moving screens, technical fouls.

[Errn]

Arroyo cannot defend. Cannot keep up with Ridnour at all. Then they put in West, but then he takes jump shots like that just as our offense is getting set.

guess what tomorrow night is....the back end of a back to back...automatic loss

[barefacedmonk]

Baby needs to shoot more. He has only taken 11 so far. Lol

He took 15 shots to score 17 points the last time we played them...and pulled down just 1 rebound.

[Megatron]

Automatic loss tommorow, second night of a back to back.

[celticinorlando]

i thought the reason they got green was so he would play with the big 3 at the endof games? instead they bench him.

[get_banners]

we can't hit the broad side of a barn...plain and simple.

letting some d league scrub destroy you

... with 5 rebounds and a block at the half, in a game where OKC is playing great team defense.

[Errn]

We're getting toasted. Garnett blocked yikes.

[JohnBagleyValueMeal]

Second game in a row some scrub has blocked a KG dunk

BBD doing his best Vince Carter impression.
