yeah lebron scared the shit outta me lol. i think we just might wrap it up next game cause this was the 1st time i seen the celts play the way they did in reg. season, 1st time in the postseason and they got it turned on at the 2nd half. i feel doc actually got to em with his speech and is getting everybody to make the extra pass that made us so good offensively in reg season.
Lebron James

i mean this whole playoffs we been playing our celtic defense but our excessive passing offense was lacking and they were focusing on key guys to get hot and they never would when it came to that. at half doc finally said lets start making extra passes and not focus on a certain player but just let the ball find the open man and we finally looked how we used to. if we have that same mentality going in friday then it's gonna be done quick and easy.
The problem with the Celtics is that most teams when they hit the playoffs have a second level that they'll go to.. The Celtics have been playing at that level all year. Happened to the Mavs last year.. Happened to the Pistons the year before and its happening to the Celts this year. They wasted there team in the regular season by going all out every night and they don't have another level to go to in the playoffs.
i agree sort of. believe it or not we really didnt push it during reg. season. we always had guys on the bench in the mid of 4th quarter and everything. we always gotta keep players in so they stay used to the mintures come playoff time and you know that. i do agree 100% that the celts havent went to another level in the playoff's this year but i didnt expect them to. they wouldn't know how to go to another level yet seeing as how this team was just built this year. no matter wat happens u really cant say this was a joke job by the celts cause they never played in the playoff's together until this year and they play alright but they will know they need another level next year and it took this year to learn that.
FUCK!!!!!!!!
guess i was wrong but u cant expect to win a game when one team shoots near 30 FT's and u only get 17 or some shit. cant wait to see how the celts treat next game, this aint the hawks so this is just building my boy rondo and perks experience levels up. and if they win to face the pistons then hell yeah. they be getting all the experience they need for next year.

In my opinion, the Celtics have not appeared to be mentally tough in these playoffs. They look confused and unsure during critical moments in close games. And where is Allen? He's underachieved in the postseason. I thought Lebron cost the Cavs a chance to win the last game, but he definately won this one.
Allen is out of gas it seems. and i think we're mentally tough and we show it in our home games but all these road games where losing are do to foul shots. while the other team is going to the basket at there house getting them calls. we just stay low key and shoot mid range jumpers then bring in the paint at home. i honestly don't get the coaching scheme of doc rivers. he only had one good coaching game and that was game 5, other than that he's the main reason shit went to 7 with hawks and now 7 with cavs. the way i look at it is i look as far back as MJ winning his 1st and u gotta think. not one mediocre coach has really won the whole thing in the NBA. every championship team since as long as i been watching always has the future HOF coach to get through the 16 wins. we don't have that unfortunately and our assistant is actually better than our head which IMO they should switch next year or fire doc but thats me. but yeah allen is out of gas and pierce is using his on defense which is important and he has been doing good most of the time so props to that. just hope we can squeeze that W out Sunday if not then shit happens and i'll be ready for next year and wont look at this season as a disappointment at all.
yeah no shit. and they didnt win. but thats how all these games have been in this series, nothing but defense. KG and LeBron are the only guys doing anything offensively this series. but i think we held them to that like twice or some shit aswell. just a weird series but pretty nice to watch cause the refs havent been that bad really.
@ Krazee...I understand you're bracing for the worst, but if you're not disappointed in anything less than a championship, there's something wrong with you. These players were brought in to win a championship NOW; Allen, Garnett, and Pierce aren't going to be playing in 10 years (at least not at this level). This would be, IMO, the equivilant to the Lakers losing with Malone, Shaq, Kobe, and Payton.
Well, then your opinion is wrong. It's not even close to the same thing. KG, Pierce and Allen are all between 30 and 32 years old and in their prime years. Karl Malone and GP were both on their last legs by the time they joined the Lakers. They were both still decent players but each were far cries from what they had been throughout their careers. GP was going on 36 and Malone was 41 if I'm not mistaken. Plus, it was The Mailman's last year.
I thought Boston was a way better team then Cleveland but I dont know what be going on with Boston at times. And then its like they get the ball and all of them just stand around trying to figure out who's going to shoot. I be seating their like run a play already, drive and dish with Rondo, set a screen off the baseline wit Ray, pick and roll with KG, Paul, Pope, or Perkins, but do something but pass the ball around for 20 seconds then dump it to KG for he can try to rush a quick jumper.
