That grandma in the carbonite commercial telling the nice bride she's gonna lose everything is more scary than the crypt keep...ak**** Bavetta

Hey. That's odd. The Dick in Dick Bavetta isn't getting censored out. Fine by me.

Nice 1st half. A small stretch with a couple of turnovers, but most of the time just good basketball. I do think that we can play a bit tougher, though.  

[Neurotic Guy]

I do hope Ray and Peitrus take their time getting back.  I want Bradley to get as much run as possible till the playoffs -- he is a learning sponge right now.  Same with Stiemsma, btw.

I am not a Dooling hater -- in fact, I think he's been much bettre lately on both ends.  But Ray off the bench could be a huge boost.

Wade is such a whiner

[Eja117]

This is the part where all the "experts" discuss how such a thing is possible.

Yes yes yes. It's against the laws of physics. But we've got the Tachyon

I'm not going to turn the TV on , I'll jinx it...

[Neurotic Guy]

Magic Johnson is correct -- the Heat are too deep for the C's to sustain this. But an encouraging half nonetheless.  If we play the Heat in the playoffs with a healthy Ray and Pietrus, we can play with this team -- not sure if we can beat them 4 out of 7, but we can play with them.

I'm a hardcore Pierce fan, but the dude has to get his head out of his rear end in the 2nd half.

maybe its cuz it was quiet but dude had 12 points played some decent defense on Lebron nd has a few assist

[SHAQATTACK]

Heaters get beat alot early in games, cause everybody is gunning for them and are up on their game and then the HEAT always pour it on in the 3rd/4th and don't look back...alot like the Lakers

Same old thing .

He was responsible for about half of our turnovers, and his defense was poor imo. He can do much, much better. You can tell when Paul is locked in, and he was on one of his "zoned out" halfs. The good thing is he can snap out of them instantly.

[snively]

Bradley's block was phenomenal, but it was almost just as surprising to see him lose LeBron off the dribble and draw a foul on the drive. 

The Rondo/Bradley backcourt may be undersized, but it is a lot of fun to watch.

I hope Doc is cooking up a nice motivational speech for the second half

I think he'll crank it up in the 2nd but dat was far from a poor half all of Bron Bron's shots were contested Pierce had a good half 12 efficient points

Dare I say it been meaning to Bradley can draw the foul and finish strong at the drive through contact a la Westbrook....
