[celticinorlando]

god the nerves are killing me

[CelticSooner]

Finally it's time...

[Thruthelookingglass]

Im fine with Green guarding LBJ out on the wing...I just dont want him at the 4 with BBD at the 5 when LBJ comes into the paint

Charge?  Or gift-to-LeBron blocking foul?

[celticinorlando]

i expect the heat to shoot 20 plus FTs today

So I woke up, out of nothing, at 5:14 in the morning, Sydney, Australia. Drowsily I took my iPhone, pushed a button and swiped te screen, turning it on. My mind still dim from the thickness of the dreams that were haunting me mere seconds before - I still remembered a Scream-meets-Nightmare-on-Elm-Street-like storyline unfolding at the cost of me and my girlfriend - all I could think was: "Celtics! Celtics!".

Browsing NBA.com on that tiny device, I noticed the Griz were up by 7... which didn't "compute", since by my earlier (during the day actually) made calculations, had the Celtics playing at 2am Sydney time. Awake now, there is no doubt in my mind that working all weekend wrecked my brain to the point where calculation of time-zones - which has always been an area where my skills were sketchy at best - really made me mess this up.

So I dragged my hiney out of the bed, and while my girlfriend, waking up ever so slightly, asked me if I was alright, I could utter just one word:

Celtics!

Twitter Pflanns:
"There's a guy here in a Shaquille O'Neal Heat jersey. He must be conflicted right now."

Imagine what it'll be like for Lakers with the jersey later on
