Man, I get so disgusted with these wings leaving the big men hanging ALL THE TIME. Don't go to them to help. Don't cut hard to the basket either. Just stand watching on the perimeter.
Thanks Brad for answering my ad,
"Boston Celtics Barbershop, cutters wanted."
But after KP, your C play? You broke my heart Fredo.

Great half so far.

Exactly what I wanted to see.

Go Celts!

I hope so b/c that really hasn't been the case this year. When Ray is on he is on. But when he is off, it gets pretty ugly and he really doesn't stop shooting either.

Ray will be fine.

Honestly, he may be scoring less, but his FG%, 3PT%, and FT% are all better this year than they were last year in Seattle.

Heck, he's been shooting just as well in games 1-6 as he has all season, and better from 3-point range.

I half expect to see Sam head to the locker room on a Rascal. Beeping his little horn to clear the way.

By the way despite the score Doc did not not do a good job with subs in the first half. I think Doc has done better than he has been given credit for during this series, but thank g-d some guys played well enough and the Hawks bad enough in the first half to be up the way we are. We should be up by 35.

I agree. He seems to sit guys for too long, killing any rhythm they might have. I think this is especially with Rondo. He should be playing 40 minutes minimum in games.

Our offense sucks! Thank god for our defense!

Now, we need to come out of the half with energy! I don`t want to see another 5th game 3rd quarter! We need to finish them off in the third!!!

If Ray Allen didn't have one of his worst halves of the year we'd be up by at least 25.

We should think of the 2nd half as a chance at some payback for the trash talking and flagrant fouls from earlier. We need to run up the score and never let up.

We just need 24 minutes of this same aggressive defense and rebounding and we'll be in round two. Don't even give them a chance to get within 15 C's!
