They need to maintain their defensive intensity even when the shots aren’t falling.

This does really seem to be an issue.  We gotta flip the switch on that.  If we are missing shots, gotta play harder on def and smarter overall.

Need to pick it up. MIN has been fantastic at home lately, can't let them extend this lead.

not enough energy by the celtics here, plus they need to attack the basket more.

hmmmmm...where have i heard this before???  ::)

They look a bit out of puff. Apparently they didn’t get in to Minneapolis till 3am. Silly to have 4 days off play 2 back to backs and then another 4 days off  ::)

That's already the second time that Taj Gibson has traveled on a move to the basket with no-call while getting a bucket and the foul.

Danny: "Marcus, work on your 3-point shooting and I'll give you 52M"

Smart: "Say no more Danny!"  :P

I’ve been wondering, are these officials ever held accountable for their performances?

Of course, if a Lebron team loses then the officials hear a mouthful from the league the next day  :P
