Baby is definately the best chance against shaq, i remember last season Duncan trying to back him down and having some issues... if he can really bank down and hold position he could save us a few points

Or as immortal reading primer stars Dick and Jane might have phrased it:

See Rondo run.
Run Rondo run.
Look ahead Rondo.
Scal is out in front.
Pass to Scal.
Good pass Rondo.
Scal lays it in.
Now Shaq is sad.


Hopefully Shaq will miss enough to get this break going.

Just like Forest gump: Run Scal Run.

Maybe I missed something. Why is Shaq playing tonight? Doesn't he sit out the second half of back-to-back games? He played last night.

It is a big game though. I would be surprised if shaq took an off day.

If the Suns did play last night with Shaq and he plays again tonight I wouldn't expect a huge performance by the Diesel. He really plays his best ball on one or more days rest.

The Celtics have to keep the pace up tonight. If they allow Shaq to jog up and down the court they are in for a long game. If they cause Shaq to keep the pace up they can wear him out. Also if Scal can hit a couple outside shots that would be huge too cause we know Shaq has no interest in guarding anybody outside of the paint.

Actually, it's usually the first game he sits out, so maybe he plays tonight. And I don't think it is all back to backs.

The team looks very fresh tonight. Scal actually is looking like an NBA player lately!
Hey you! Can we come together?

This is the perfect game to unleash Skywalker on the NBA, hopefully we continue to stomp on their throats so Billy can get 10-15 minutes tonight.

This is a joke. The Suns have zero fight in them. I was hoping for a better game. Anything good on tonight?

Celtics doing too well now :wink: I hope they wont fell asleep on laurels, again.
Who would win one-on-one in HORSE?

Bird: Nobody beats me in H-O-R-S-E. Besides, Magic cant shoot.

Magic: Larry, you'd have no chance against me one-on-one. I've got too many ways to beat you. Plus, as slow as I am, I'm still faster than you.
