  • It's not hard to work hard.
It's always an adventure with these guys, huh?

Go Celtics!

I can't see 'Melo duplicating anything close to what he did tonight. We'll see.

I'll take it.

Thankfully the team has a few days off to rest and repair before the next game....

Can we possibly notice that once again the Celtics found a way to win? No, probably not. We will now proceed with complaining about how much they suck.

Found a way to win?  I guess.  I'm happy with the win, and it was entertaining.  However, it shouldn't have been this big of a struggle without Amare and Chauncey in there.

They did a big mistake in my opinion. They should've really let the clock run down before doubling Carmelo.

I love you guys, but c'mon now, some of you are 2-for-2 on these now.  It's not like we haven't seen this routine before.

2-0 is 2-0.  Not thrilled about our performance but we're ahead where it matters.  Now let's go to NY and put ourselves in position to sweep.

  • Thank you Eddie!
It makes me feel a million times better that Chicago didn't exactly blow out an Indiana team that won 37 games and has no legitimate star player in their first two games either.

I'll take this win and be happy with it you know why? It would have been MUCH easier for us to lose this game. The game was gone. The fact that we found a way to win in the final seconds of a horrible performance is pretty amazing. Execution in the final seconds it what separates the ELITE from everyone else.

Phew, might need to buy a peacemaker for the next game.

Great win but man KG was soooo clutch, I thought the ball was going to Ray or Paul, yet KG made the simple play and then this huge steal on D, wow!!!

And to think we were going to lose because Davis didn't defend on JEffries and we couldn't rebound, phew, what a change of scenario.

2-0, a win is a win is a win like they say! TP's all around! And thanks Rondo for your brilliance in the 4th quarter especially!

Impressive effort from that short-handed Knicks team. Well done.

It wasn't a pretty win but a win nonetheless. Move onto the next game.
