How is it a 10 point game right now?!

Felt like the Celtics were playing really well and yet you look at the scoreboard and it isn't close.

No true back up pg. This happens every game.

just as I start optimistically thinking the C's could steal this game, they're back down by 10 in a couple of minutes

man, Rondo cannot get a foul on those drives.  how is that?
Maybe he shouldn't try to drive through three people?

That might be another thing to consider here, with my man steamer....we AREN't Gonna sign any major center this year....if you don't play Steamer and get him confident and seasoned..WHAT will you do if we have a major injury to a big..?

Because this isn't little league where everyone gets a turn...

Problem is Doc thinks this is an over 40 league.

Stiemsma isn't exactly the kind of player that deserves a whole bunch of playing time.

No, really, I mean...lets talk our team, and the bigs we have...no "fantasy" where we say we'll just sign howard then....really....at least play him vs lesser teams....well, that is what I would do. But I have a real time mind set.

Down by 10 after playing, probably, the best 3 quarters they've played this season against decent competition.

That says a lot.

Half of those turnovers were by your true PG. I guess that doesn't help either.

soo apparently its become tradition for Pierce to ruin our chances at winning while Ray takes his late-game break

1 point game..

Is this the usual 3rd quarter run we go on where we get within 1 then it balloons back to 10+ because we're too tired to build on it?

I really hope not.

Same s***...different game.

Down 10 and the thunder have played like crap. Harden has been atrocious. Nice 7 points for Perk in the third quarter. JO having the game he will have every sixth or seventh game this year.

Don't need a back up PG necessarily, just somebody who can handle the ball without getting it stolen or throwing it away.

The turnovers in this game have been awful; completely negated the energy, rebounding, and relatively smart offensive play we've seen for stretches that have allowed them to hang in it.

Funny you say that because we end with them up 10+.
