Oh Edited.  Profanity and masked profanity are against forum rules and may result in discipline.

LOL I LOVE IT!

IT has that chip on his shoulder! You ain't punking him!!

cheep fxxxing play

[loco_91]

Am I the only one who thinks Rozier is quietly a sieve on D?

Quietly? He's quite possibly our worst defender, especially out on the perimeter. And that's crazy, because he has all of the tools to be an excellent defender.

Unfortunately he has some competition for worst, what with Gerald Green and IT as well. But, yeah.

There are times to cheer "Let's go *home team*", but right after one of your players does a cheap play on the opponent's best player is not one of them.

I might venture to say that IT is a better defender than Rozier. IT is really hampered by his size, but he's always playing hard defensively, and he's much more technically sound on his rotations and reads. Rozier seems to bite at every fake and always miss rotations.

Not only the tools, but having to guard IT in practice and with Smart and Bradley available to give him pointers (along with our coaching staff), you'd imagine he wouldn't be so terrible.

Still lots of time to develop though.

Throw his ass out the game!

[tarheelsxxiii]

Love the Celts.  Hard foul on IT -- Crowder and Smart immediately in Carroll's face. 

[SHAQATTACK]

Cheap shot

[BitterJim]

Throw his ass out the game!

For his own safety, if nothing else

Bring in Zeller for a hard foul

[loco_91]

Full-speed that didn't look too bad, slo-mo it looked dirty.

Brown was there, too

If the Celtics push a Raptor to the floor at the other end is that just a common foul?

Love the fire of those three.  Competitive and tough.
