Mo Williams was A GREAT PICKUP by Cavs. He is a player!!
SamIam 2010: Truth's ability to play so incredibly efficiently is so UNDERAPPRECIATED. Bballcool 2012: Amazing how great Pierce has been for so long. Continues to defy age! KG 2013: P is original Celtic. Wherever he goes, we go. This is The Truth's house.

He pushed off on House...and it looked like his foot was on the line.

Can Danny Ainge go get some length and another shooter? we are too small, and we can't score on the bench.

Turning back to the local broadcast so I don't have to listen to Van Gundy complain for the entirety of the game

Don't feed Leon Powe in the paint. He's like a black hole, and you'll never see the ball again.

Take House out. Seriously when is the last time he hit a shot? Put him at the and of the bench with POB and put Sam in.

The cavs guards are destroying the Celtics right now.

That was pathetic. He held the ball for 10 seconds.

How the hell did the ref miss that obvious push off that was right in front of him and within 3 feet of him?

The defense is brutal tonight.

BANG, Pierce comes in, sets a play up for Baby; to the line for 2 FT's. Get their bigs another foul.

We need to start using Pierce as a #1 option instead of a player playing within the offense.

We'd be leading if House could hit ONE jumpshot--and Pierce quit throwing the ball away.

We're simply taking bad shots.

... and the Cavs are just playing with more intensity on defense.

You can see it on every one of our offensive sets. They chase us out off ball screens, they scramble into position. On the other hand, a slow defensive switch gave LBJ an open 3pt shot.

Paul is being doubled, but tonight was not the night to have an off game - after playing lights out for the last 10 games. We need him to morph back quickly.
