Lakers (14-11) at Celtics (14-10) 2/9

[Roy H.]

Gasol is a beast.

[CelticSooner]

If the C's even try to rebound they'll win this going away. If not it's gonna be close.

[OsirusCeltics]

This is a classic example of two teams that know each other too well (even though we only play twice a year).

Yup, which means they know each others moves, which makes it an extreeeeeeeeemly slow game

[Meadowlark_Scal]

It's games like this where I especially miss Perk.  We need to box out.

Right on Roy..!

Rebound the effin ball sheesh

[nickagneta]

Well, if you notice, the Celts aren't even going NEAR the offensive glass...as usual, just putting up a shot, and turning to go back before it even his the rim....that is the bad side of doc-alogy.......he isn't a wrong..but he still doesn't understand rebounding...!

I've said this so many times...it has to be the most irritating thing about this team. After we put up a shot to see 4 Lakers and NO Celtics reaching for the rebound is just ridiculous.

Except their top three defense in points allowed per game and FG% allowed per game over the last 5 years says Doc might be onto something in making sure you get back on defense and not allowing easy fast break baskets

How do you get a fast break..? It is only 5 on 5 out there....a fast break is really only another major Defense breakdown.....WHERE IS YOUR MAN...I always say..!

Come on you really gotta ask this?

You crash the glass and your man releases on the break with a quick out you get numbers and lay it in.

Not rocket science.

[Meadowlark_Scal]

Someone alert me when they call 3 seconds on the Lakers at any point in this game.

Ha, you are sooo right, i just realized that after you posted it..!

KG jumper isn't falling can we go to Pierce?!?!!

[33-00-32]

JO got hurt on that dunk

[Roy H.]

Rondo!  Coast to coast!

(JO, injured?  I'm shocked!)

[CelticSooner]

JO probably broke a wrist again.

[nickagneta]

JO got hurt on that dunk

Think he was playing it up looking for a whistle.

[CelticSooner]

KG jumper isn't falling can we go to Pierce?!?!!

The best offensive player on the team? Nah, just keep settling for that jumper KG can get anytime he wants.

Hahaha, you know i know...but you said "crash the glass"  THAT is the formula for everything..! still, it is only one guy NOT staying with his guy, someone lost the switch....there is no need to allow fast breaks.....I always havew 1 guy rotate to the top...like a hockey defenseman.....if i can figure it...doc-o can..!
