Defense was terrible, gotta pick it up in the 2nd half.

Perkins just looked clueless out there. Got lost on defense at least 3 times, had no awareness of Gasol being behind him on that block and really just looked like his head wasn't in the game. I'm really not sure why he got 17 minutes and 20 seconds with a performance like that...it's as bad as he's played all playoff long. We need him to play like he did vs. Detroit.

Rondo looks real good offensively, but he's gotta stop leaving Fisher. The guy is too good of a shooter and just on fire tonight.

Pierce should be eating the Lakers alive the way KG is doing right now. They've got no one who can cover him. I'm expecting a big 2nd half for him.

Ray looks pretty good, despite the 2-8 shooting (1 miss was from past halfcourt at the buzzer). Made life tough for Kobe and did very well as a drive and dish guy this half with 5 assists (as well as a nice pass to get Rondo a pair of free throws).

KG was KG. Get him the ball more, please. It resulted in either a hoop for him (when they played him straight up) or an open jumper for a teammate (when they doubled) every year.

Cassell had his typical ridiculous shot selection, but at least they were falling in the 1st half. Even though I think he's capable of playing like a point guard and capable of more than instant offense/being a chucker, I'll obviously take that performance.

Posey has to bury those open jumpers.

We are getting beat by a better defensive plan.

If we don't win this game, it sets the tone.

It'll put even more pressure on our so called big 3.

Lakers 3 straight at home.

We just have no chance. Good job DOC!!!!!

POSEY fails when you need him.

PIERCE is can't play in the finals...to much pressure on him.

KG...hes great but not great enough to lead our team like Kobe

We lost. Its so obvious.


Is this supposed to be a reverse jinx or something? This series is far from over, watch Boston destroy the Fakers in the 2nd half and take it in 5 games, 6 games max.

some of you so called celtic fans should be ashamed of yourselves, saying it's over and giving up on your team only down 5 at halftime :noway: as a Laker fan i can tell you that your teams gonna make a run in the second half, :noway: you think Kg,Allen and Pierce are gonna roll over and die? plus Rondo's playing pretty well. this game is far from over

Going to be really sad if the C's lose. I really think Game 1 sets the tone. It just does. If we lose here its such a bold statement made by the Lakers.

Then I'll have to be sweating in Game 2. Can't imagine if we go down 0-2 and then 3 straight at Lakers. To heart pounding.
