And, I'm officially done with the Jared Sullinger three point shooter experiment.  I don't mind him taking one or two every once in a while, but everybody knows where that young man should be doing the bulk of his work.

If Sullinger can't hit threes, maybe he'll spend more time on the bench when the other team has a PF that Green can guard.

There's really no shame in losing to Houston and Dallas on the road.  It's Houston who should be ashamed, cuz that is some fugly basketball they play.  Tonight's game was a treat though.  All things considered, the refs stayed out of the game as much as you can really hope for in a tight game featuring Dirk.  Fun basketball.

They had a few questionable calls for Dirk and the one on RR which shoulda been an and1 but other than those calls, good job.

I like KO


But he plays like a   "Woman"
KO is the only above-average shooter on the Celtics.  Everyone else is terrible, mediocre, or streaky.  And when Kelly Olynyk is your team's most consistent shooter, you're gonna struggle.
Kelly's problem is that he can't create his own shot.  Then when Rondo sets him up with a wide open look, he passes on half of em.

Ko was plus 13 tonight and a big part of our comeback. He needs to shoot more though. Always looking to pass first

I want to see KO with some in your face basketball.....loosen the other guys teeth ......go up strong with elbows OUT .

I need to see a few fits of rage and couple techs .....


Come on KO ......get mean under the boards .......and slam the ball though with some stare down action.

Old skinny broken down Dirk.....showing emotion......KO .......come on MAN UP......if you foul ......no sissy foul ....down waste it......make em hit the floor ......

In theory. Seems like he never wants to actually shoot the ball. He always pump fakes and dribbles himself into a more awkward situation.

They also rewarded Rondo for flopping once, gave Smart the benefit of the doubt on a couple of near flops, made the correct call on the non-flagrant (which is never a foregone conclusion), swallowed the whistle on that scrum that led to the jump ball.  I'd give them a B.

That was an incredibly entertaining game.  $200 for league pass has been worth it.

As a bonus you can watch all the other teams except the ones are in your local cable package.

Lets see how the Celtics can do against Toronto.
The beatings will continue until morale improves

Green and KO's D in the first half was offensive. They got it together in the second half and you could see it helped us a lot.

AB shut it down on D from go in the 3rd which got us going (he technically shut Nelson down from 1st Q but w/e) . When AB came out like that and RR zoomed up and down, we looked BEASTLY!

RR, AB, Smart dialed in on D together... please can I have more???!!!! Just give them time!!!

My old man would have throttled me if I ever played like KO .   .....KO isn't a little dude......he needs to serious of meanness added to his game......KG needs to gave a long talk man to man with KO.

If only we had an interior presence.  I'm not happy with how many points we've given up in the past 2 games, but then again they were both very good teams.
