Celtics (3-2) at Sixers (2-3) ECSF Game 6 5.23

[vinnie]

I said this earlier.. What should we expect from a team that is playing Ryan Hollins signigcnt bench minutes? Seriously, counting Pitrus, they have 5 real players tonight.

Well, it could be worse…

Ryan Hollins is a [dang] embarassment.

How are you 7 foot tall and athletic but can convert a wide open alley oop?

I swear this team is so frustrating at times, its like they play bad on purpose to play possum, I dont get it. I really dont.

How can some of you have championship title hopes for this team?

Compare the Spurs to us, were trying hard and cant even score over 20 points in a half.

Get ready for Game 7..

Nope

Ditto.  The Celts are going to come through down the stretch.

I think so too, though this has been very hard to watch...

[Meadowlark_Scal]

Who else do we have other than Hollins? Steamer? SUCKS. Ray? SUCKS.

wasn't steamer 5 for 5 last game..?

[BASS_THUMPER]

no 7th game
we finish this tonight

[Neurotic Guy]

It is remarkable that the C's are down only 4.

1 quarter of decent ball here and the C's can take this.  Unfortunately, I get the feeling it's Philly that will get hot, but still hoping. 

C's defense has been the difference in the 4th when they've won -- let's do it C's!

A movie about lacrosse .....really

[YouCantHandleTheTruth!]

All things said. Only being down by 4 points shooting 32% for the game, is pretty encouraging.

Nothing is encouraging after this performance so far

You know, I'd be willing to bet Sean Williams understands our system infinitely more than Hollins. Id kill to see him get minutes over that dude.

peitrus....sasha.....

This is exactly what our team DIDNT need!

A close dogfight game in the 4th quarter against a younger, better, quicker dog.

Outlook is grim, but I hope we pull it out.

Unfortunately I think Lou Williams and Iguoldala (two of the best closers in the 2012 playoffs) will close us out, our energy has gotten worse as the game went on and now were just shooting long jumpers.

This a million times.

  One decent quarter and we're in the Conference Finals.  Sitting around or below .500 in the middle of the season we'd take that right?

Time to take em to school.

I have so many questions I'd love to ask Doc

1. Why keep in Ray when he's clearly playing like garbage, and his injury practically guarantees he won't get any better for the foreseeable future?

2. What in the hell does Hollins give you over Stiemsma? What is the point of playing him?

3. Why don't you tell Rondo (or anyone) to take it to the hoop?

4. Shouldn't you consider doing something about Lou Williams taking it to the rim at will?
