Blow 18 point lead and lose by 9.

[Spicoli]

How is that even possible? To blow a lead that large and lose by that many points? Where was the defense? This loss has got me so upset. Wow.

Celtics are a mentally weak team, game speaks for itself.

What the hell is Pierce Captain for. The Truth should be kicking some butts during critical times. Doc certainly doesn't motivate anyone.

Need some1 to blame. Well then, start and end the Ray Allen era. Right now, he looks nothing, just like a NCAAB bench warmer.

This celtics team should write a book on how to blow leads in the NBA

lol no leave that to the magic after we erased a 27 pt deficit to beat them, or the grizz who lost a 15 pt or so lead to the clippers halfway through the 4th at home...

but the celtics could definitely be quoted haha

2nd half score was something like 63-39

thats how

[Spicoli]

We gave up 60 points in the second half to a team that absolutely cannot score the basketball if their lives depended on it. A day later, i'm still at a loss of words as to how this happened.

Ray is my favorite player ever, but he was god awful. However, i don't put this on him. I'm putting this one on the defense. We held them to 30 points in the first half, then started toying with them in the second half and gave up 60 points. The defense was garbage and let us down here.

throw lazy passes for fast break layups in the other direction and your lead will disappear.

hahahaha yeah the alternative is so much better.

Was that the first NBA basketball game you've ever watched?  

If so, I'll explain to you that big runs by one team or the other happen more frequently than not in this league.  An 18 point lead in the NBA isn't close to being safe.  

Yes, the Celtics should have protected their lead better, but it's far from mind boggling.

I would much rather have Peitrus in the game than Ray

Except, you know, Pietrus can't even hit the rim.

I'm tired of hearing about how bad Ray's defense is. It's not that bad. It is what it's always been. What's different is his shot isn't falling with consistency.

He's still Ray Allen. He still gets the "Ray Allen treatment" which opens up the game for the rest of the guys. This team isn't winning a title without him, so they better keep him out there and get his shot right. You know it's gonna come sooner or later.

We lost because we have no bench and KG had a terrible game. (he's carried us in the playoffs, so nobody is going to trash KG and rightfully so) but that's the reality. Not Ray Allen.
