Celtics (2-0) at Knicks (0-2) Game 3 4/22

[celticinorlando]

this is jeff green's game. pierce has foul issues so i can see green getting big minutes with quality players. time to go jeff

[Kiorrik]

Up 8 at the half, could have (should have?) been up more if it wasn't for the careless turnovers but I will take it. Hope someone shows up offensively though to help Pierce and Ray who are all alone so far. Nice half from Green offensively, agressive and efficient. And Doc has finally understood that less Baby and more JO means good things especially on D, it was about time.

D! What's up my man? Still watching late at night through ILP? I miss that man! What do you think of the quality?

Yep, always present for the playoffs games, it's 2:33 here! Quality is great and I have no lag so it's all good. I hope everyting is good for you in Australia! This game is a a  nice way to start your weekend uh?

It really is yeah It's Saturday here man, I've already had Good Friday off, and my home computer broke down, so I'm at work now lol! It's crazy I tell ya

I'm doing work for work and trying to watch the game at the same time

Let's get the W and I'll forget all about the broken down computer! (... not really ... but ... oh hell yeah, SWEEPTIME! )

he's got the skills & the tools--let's hope he's up for the challenge!

[celticinorlando]

amare looks like he is trying to play but just isn't comfortable. i would give him the jumper and make him shoot outside...and stop doubling melo..just leaves a scrub underneath open

I agree - he has 7 pts so far..he's looked pretty confident out there, too.

We get this one, and we can close them out sooner than later.

[Kiorrik]

I just wanna thank Ray Allen for starting to shoot the basketball again. I remember I made a thread in response to everyone saying Ray isnt getting open anymore & I was saying he is, he's just NOT SHOOTING. He is getting the same looks now as he was a month ago, difference now is... that hes LETTING THEM FLY.

Good point (TP) I totally agree - he's been passing a LOT lately.

yup, if we can hang on tonight, this series won't go more than 5. Hopefully.

+1

please Doc, listen to this wise advice

[celticinorlando]

i am cheering for orlando. they have a better chance of beating the bulls than atalanta

[Tenacious D]

P'haps that long stretch in mid-season when he started or played starters minutes went to his head. "Me big chief" syndrome (hope that's not offensive, oh well).

[fairweatherfan]

24 minutes strong and despite our struggles the playoffs are off to an excellent start.

Wouldn't even let him get the shot off to be honest. Rather D down on him and make him pass to the scrubs. Rather have their bench try to beat us than mister "Star-call" A'mare.

[celticinorlando]

lets get this lead back to 15 by the 6 minute mark..double digit lead going into the 4th

[birdwatcher]

would it make sense to give Wafer a few minutes and let him get to the rim a few times? He's really got a knack for slashing, and Delonte has been tentative--can you believe he only played 5 min in the first half??

Not just that, but Atlanta gives me fits. Really does.
