And if it was an especially cold winter, and there weren't enough grains or vegetables, they would eat the weakest of the brood.

Push aside the bobcats record, their a fun team to watch with their young talent <felton,richardson,wallace,meke> (mcinnis need no apply here)

You know the Bobcats are going to be playing at the top of their game after that last loss. They will be itching to become the fourth team to defeat the Celtics, and it could be close with Ray Allen and Glen Davis sitting out. I expect a competitive game, with the Celtics hopefully pulling it out.

Rondo is gonna make Felton look like Jeff McInnis.

If McInnis is seriously going to be guarding Allen and vice versa, Tony could have a career game.

Charlotte has a pretty decent 3 of Wallace, Okafor and Richardson. It's too bad the rest of the team is largely devoid of talent.

I don't get Ray Felton at all. Or, at least why people regard him as anything but a sub-par basketball player. What does he do that I'm missing?

consider Felton a more proven Pruitt, he has the speed and shot combo that's rare for a PG, and he still is a PG with that other aspects to boot.

Man if TA wasn't injuried and could still play one-on-one I'd say We'd hold Charloote under 80 in this game... alas he's relegated to a pass lanes player... can't be the Spurs before we win the title anyways.

I don`t like Felton at all. He is small, can`t defend, can`t shoot, turnover prone...

We need to contain Richarson and Wallace and we should be OK. We are the better team obviously and I expect a solid win even without Ray.

Why is Jeff Mcinnis starting at shooting guard? Do they have injurys? Rondo is a better shooter the Jeff Mcinnis.

Should be an interesting game, but either it will come down to the final possession again, or we blow them out. No in between.

a well rested Celtics team will coast through the first half, dominate in the 3rd quarter, and play reserves in the 4th.

C's by 11.

Pierce 29 pts

Garnett 15 pts 12rebs 5 assts

Does it really matter either way?

Well I'm sure Eddie will have his time to shine...possibly with Ray sitting out. I doubt anybody else gets a cigar that doesn't already have one, though, unless we rest the big three at the end of the season or something like that.

these guys were a tough team with ray and baby, only thing that helps is that it's at home.

hopefully the tony allen who can make layups shows up tonight.

If no baby, and posey plays 3 to make up for ray, we might see scal, yuck.

then again, i could see doc doing a rondo/house backcourt as they are small too.

The Bobcats want revenge. Too bad they aren't getting it tonight.
