The MOST impressive aspect of the win..... NONE of our big three were anywhere CLOSE to being good offensively, but our bench CARRIED us. Baby was majestic, TA was big, House made big shots, so did Posey and a BIG offensive board ...Kudos to the bench... I wonder if those idiots will still say we have 'no bench'....

That's what scares me. We may not have much left for the finals.
Good point. But whatever Western team the Cs might play would likely be in the same boat, as a Dallas/San Antonio or Phoenix/San Antonio series would probably be a knock-down drag-out battle too.

Wow Celts, you guys played well, killed us on the boards and that Glen Davis is a very good finisher under the basket...
See you guys in March!

As happy as I am with this team, I still think they need to get Ray Allen more involved. Too often he goes long stretches without touching the ball. And I never want to see Tony Allen bringing the ball up. If he is playing with Pierce and Allen, let one of them bring it up.
We are in the midst of a collective bargaining bouillabaisse

How about this idea. Instead of leaving Pierce out with the second team, which Doc has been doing, why not put Ray Allen out there? He could be the main shooter for a 5-8 minute stretch, and get in rhythm.
I guess the downside would be that his health seems to be the most fragile of the Big Three, so that's one of the reasons that they are probably trying to rest him.
Yabba-dabba-doo!

Well, I admit that my heart was in my mouth for three and a half quarters, but what a thrilling final few minutes that was.
Glen Davis is a hero tonight, and Pierce right up there too. In fact, to all the people who said at the beginning of the season that this team lacks depth, I hope they were watching --- this game answered that one quite nicely.
