With Ray coming off the bench, the team always seems to keep two high quality players on the court.
Yaas.  Caught me by surprise, but glad to see it. Think it can work.

This is the right way to play the Bulls. I hope we can keep it up.

I am very impressed with how Paul Pierce has made Deng look bad at defense.

Although Bradley is playing well, he seems to have lost the automatic jumper. Hopefully it will return soon. Also, Steamer seems a little fragile confidence wise. Not the same player who played the Heat. Maybe Docs treatment of him, yesterday, has got him thinking too.

Maybe teams with good centers give him more problems than teams that don't have good centers.

Bradley hasnt played a bradley type game, his defense has been suspect, i still like his energy, and my view on him is so much different thaan it was a month ago, im confident when he is in the game, things wont get out of hand.

Can Rondo please try and stay in front of his man??  He keeps getting beat and trying to go for the poke from behind. 

Other than that no complaints from me.  I am really enthused with how Pierce is playing against Deng, who normally holds Pierce to low scoring.  KG looking pretty solid too but is missing a number of easy jumpers for him. 

Hollins is definitely trying on defense, and its good to see that he's getting the rotations fairly right... even if it takes him a bit to get there lol.

The Celtics mostly just need to avoid any horrible stretches where Bulls go on a run and they don't score. Don't go out there and have a quarter where the Bulls vastly outperform you.

Don't play the kind of basketball that is mostly centered around protecting the lead while trying to run as much clock as possible. Go out there and win the [dang] game. Don't let up. These Celtics know they can play with and beat any team out there. Now they just need to continue their good play into this second quarter. Obviously hoping for the Bulls to just miss a lot of shots is no way to win this game. So they need to just play smart and avoid any major mistakes.

I'm still cringing at that lazy pass from Pierce to rondo in the first quarter that led to the easy dunk by, I believe, Hamilton. We can't have plays like that. We just can't. Hopefully Kg's mid-range jumper gets going as well. The last thing we want is for KG to start doubting that mid-range jumper.

Maybe he is thinking a little too much. Getting the start over a HOFer could do that to you.

Seriously, Rondo better stop leaving his man. He's costing us with that crap.

ironically Bradley's defense has been the bad part of his game today

Our great defensive backcourt is looking awfully weak right now
