I'll take the win but that was one of the WORST basketball games i have ever seen. Both teams were horrendous on offense and turned the ball over a lot. Kevin Garnett, Rondo and Big Z were the only guys who kept the game going. I have never screamed at the Celtics as much as i have tonight because of their god awful performance.

Aside from all of that... I think it's funny that San Antonio is getting wiped! As for the Western conference, sadly, I'd like to see the Lakers wipe New Orleans.

The East? Well, I think if the Celtics lose a home game from this point out, they could be finished! It's obvious that they can't seem to win on the road. WTF? Don't get me wrong, I've always been a Celtics fan but unfortunately, as a betting man, if they did lose one home game.... I'd go for the other team.

why? i want it to be a N.O.-Celts finals, with celts finishing them off. I think its good for Chris Paul if he makes the finals, but not win it, still a young guy.

and yeah Shiznit, that was a horrible game, very low scoring, lebron only made one FG in the first HALF. turnovers were ridiculous, but KG did well in the very end.

I want to see the lakers vs. celtics in the finals or Lakers vs. Cavs. A lakers cavs series would kind of remind me of the lakers bulls (Magic vs Jordan) or bulls blazers (jordan vs. Drexler) series in the 90's. Two star powers going at it to see who is the best. I think the lakers will win it all this year, especially with the Spurs looking to make an early exit. There are just too good as a team and Kobe is having his best year ever, maybe not statistically but as a leader.

Defensive battles are never fun to watch.

Even so, the Celts were able to shut down Lebron, something really I have never seen been done before.

Pierce and Ray played two of the worst games of their respective careers, that won't happen again.

I'd like to see game 3 (road game) before I make a prediction, but if they keep up their stellar defense and Pierce and Ray start playing like the all-stars they are, I can't see the Celtics not coasting in this series.

Isn't that what the experts were saying before the Boston-Atlanta series?

Triple Threat

While I agree with you about Kobe, it was the trade for Gasol that has made a difference. Gasol is now the Shaq who Kobe needed before to win it all.

soxmuscle

I was truly let down last night

It's like night and day when they play at home and on the road. No defense, no offense... just a shit basketball team.

Hopefully they can right the ship on Monday; you can beat the Atlanta's and Cleveland's of the world being unable to win on the road with home court advantage, but that won't be the case with Detroit and eventually the Lakers/New Orleans/San Anton, etc.

I agree that the Gasol trade did make a huge difference and that they would not be the top seed in the west if it weren't for that trade, but before the trade the lakers were still number 1 with a healthy bynum. Yes Kobe needs either Bynum or Gasol to win it all, just like Jordan needed Pippen.

The Celtics total inability to win a road game is amazing.

soxmuscle

1. It's easy to place blame on a coach, but this is completely justified. The Celtics have lost all 5 road games they've played in the playoffs and in all 5 games, Doc has been out coached entirely. For as easy as it is to blame a coach, it's even easier to credit him; when his players were executing in the regular season it was all fine and dandy, in these playoffs his true colors that I became all to familiar with the last couple of years are coming back out.

2. In my eyes, Kevin Garnett has always been like an A-Rod or a Peyton Manning in the sense that for as talented as they are, they're a phony come the playoffs. So far he's done nothing to change my mind and while he hasn't been the reason the Celtics have lost all their road games, Kevin Garnett has to be better than just "not the reason they lost" if the Celtics are to go any place. He's gotten flustered, he tenses up, he doesn't trust himself, he passes up shots.. Color me completely unimpressed by his performance thus far in these playoffs.

3. If Ray Allen isn't shooting well, he serves no purpose being on the court. He's no longer the young, explosive Ray Allen that could not only create his own shot but could get to the basket as well. Don't get me wrong, he's a hell of a ball player and 11 games isn't going to change my opinion of his game, it's just the flat out truth; if he isn't shooting well, sit him. Better yet, Doc, why not try him off the bench with the second unit?

4. Paul Pierce has been my favorite player for as long as I can remember, but that doesn't mean his game doesn't have flaws and they're mostly mental IMO. He'll get to the basket, make an incredible shot and then come down on the next possession and brick a three pointer. He gets anxious, tries to do to much, and as a result becomes a stupid basketball player in the process. He needs to calm down, especially on the road, and just play how he's always played.

5. I think you almost have to mix things up. Eddie House has been stuck on the bench and he was an extremely effective player in his role in the regular season. Same goes for a few other bench players that have been stuck on the pine all playoffs.

It's crazy to think about, but tonight's a must win game. Who'd have thunk it? I certainly didn't...

The second round has been unbelievable. Home team has won 17 out of 18 games.

shiznit2169

I'd say Doc is 80% of the problem. If you've been watching all of the games, you will notice that his management of the bench is NOT even close to what he has been doing all season. The thing that pisses me off the most is the fact that he has PJ Brown, Sam Cassell, Ray Allen, James Posey and Leon Powe as the starting 5 for the START OF THE 4th QUARTER! You cannot, i repeat, cannot put 5 guys out there who haven't even experienced playing with each other all season. Seriously, where is Tony Allen? Eddie House? Big Baby? Doc is killing me.

I agree with you to a certain extent but he DID win game 1 for us. He got the clutch shots they needed with under 2 minutes left in the game.

Here is a comical (but 100% true) article recently written by Bill Simmons. I love this guy and he is always funny and dead-on about a lot of things when it comes to Boston sports.

With the Washington series, you knew Boston would find a way to pull that one out. There was never really too much of a doubt. Cleveland though is a different story. Lebron is playing like ass and the series is still tied. If he finds his game, the Celtics are in real trouble...not that they're not in trouble already.

I'm still pulling for the Celtics though.

soxmuscle

Reporter: What was the game plan tonight?
KG: The game plan tonight was to give the ball to Paul and get the hell out of the way.

I guess in the end, no matter how disgraceful the officiating was in this series, David Stern got exactly what he wanted. 6 great games, an even better game 7, and the Celtics moving on.

Time to think about Tony Allen getting more time then Ray Allen. We can't rely on Ray's D (on Wally nonetheless) and he couldn't hit open shots. No point in him being in there for 35+ minutes. Tony can man up on Rip Hamilton and make plays off the dribble at SG.
