This is clearly the bench unable to provide what we need as the starters start to wane. We got to get another scorer and some more length. That, and could House hit a shot once in awhile?

The bottomline is the starters don't trust the bench. Just look at Lebron. He looks so comfortable with his teammates like he is not running the show.

Sprash is a fan. I don't blame him for being upset right now the way this team is playing. He is not like 97% if the people on here who think everything is just OK.

Our bench wasn't half as bad.... Pruitt looked ok, Powe was solid and so was Baby... Eddie House seriously needs to go learn to shoot... At the moment, Rondo can shoot better... And Ray is still ice cold....

The main problem is the celtics is not the bench, or the big 3 being tired, or Rondo not forcing people to respect him. The Celtics are simply not playing D like they were at the beginning of the year. It's started since the Lakers game. Our D allowed us to play uptempo and more freely on offense. You don't feel as pressured on offense when you have the belief that you can shut down the other team. Our struggles start on D. The only way were gonna win is if we play some D. This game is still within reach despite of how much more the Cavaliers have outplayed us.
My Starting 5:

PG: Allen Iverson
SG: Paul Pierce
SF: Kevin Durant
PF: Kevin Garnett
C: Patrick Ewing

You just knew that this game was over when Wallace scored 4 quick points. The bottom line is the the cavs are much better than they were last year and the celtics have significantly regressesd

To be honest I am surprised at the defensive effort they have been putting up. I guess that is what happens when you let Posey walk and try to replace him with a player that had two major knee injures and a 27 basket ball IQ to boot.

No one beside Perk is scoring. KG is not, Allen is missing as is Pierce.

We should be down 30 and we are only down 9. I will take that!

But why was House playing at SG again and not Pruitt? House hasn`t made a shot in like 5 games...

They are ball-watching... They either watch Lebron or they watch the ball handler... And the worst part is, they look SCARED.

The C's can still win this game, IF they don't play Eddie House in the 2nd half.
