Any chat tonight?

[Kiss My Arse]

Those Mardi Gras uniforms are absolutely hideous

[texascelticsfan]

Just awful, i didnt think there could be something that bad.

[CaptChris]

Let's see 9 T/O's in the 1st quarter. That's Championship Basketball!

[Kiss My Arse]

Glen Davis is GREAT at defending the pick-and-roll and pick-and-pop! Get rid of this bum already!

[texascelticsfan]

I think they're "showcasing" his skills tonight.

On the other hand I really like what Im seeing from Marquis.

I hope so.

Ditto on the 2nd comment.

Let me switch back to Firefox. I was using Safari but ever since the upgrade, I am hating the formatting and jump in font sizes, display, etc. I particularly hate that replies automatically are routed to "Quick Reply" and one has to "Go Advanced". Even then, it's irritating.

Did anyone miss Ray in the first half?

[Kiss My Arse]

Not only no but heck no.

[ThroughThatDoor]

Missed the first half so just jumping in on the game. The basket that NO is shooting at this quarter has a really weird sound to it.

[ThroughThatDoor]

Ah Celtics third quarters. No lead is safe.

[missing35]

This is like watching a really bad joke. For the first time in a long time during a C's game, I feel like turning off the tv and going to bed. I've seen this before... The Cs get a big league and then lose in the end.

[CelticSooner]

It's starting to become laughable at the amount of times the C's blow leads. They would have the best record in the NBA if they only blew half their leads this season.

[CaptChris]

Must be a sad night when Ray Allen and Glen Davis can't be blamed for the Celtic loss. Rondo was fantastic! Perk threatened the scoring record in the joint. PP was an All-Star.

The Foul Shooting gets better all the time.

What a game! You blow a 12 pt. lead in the 3rd period. Only 22 T/O 's. OOPS.

[RAH]

I agree that this game was just awful and the Celtics are really looking poor. It is so discouraging considering how good they looked on paper at the start of the season.

However, I do want to say one thing about blowing leads. It has always been my thought that given 2 fairly evenly-matched teams, if team 1 can outscore team 2 by say 20 points in the first half of a game, then team 2 can outscore team 1 by 20 in the second half. I mean, a big lead is nothing at half-time and really shouldn't be considered to be much of anything. Especially a 10 or 12 point lead. It is totally meaningless, so we shouldn't be beating up the Celtics (or beating our heads against the wall) too much over these blown half-time leads.

What we should be crying about is all the losses to all types of teams (bad ones, good ones, etc), the really poor play, and all the injuries (I mean, obviously Pierce and Garnett aren't even close to normal).

Finally, looks like Ray Allen is really going to be traded? "Back spasms"? Sounds fishy to me!

[Kiss My Arse]

Must be a sad night when Ray Allen and Glen Davis can't be blamed for the Celtic loss.

And with that statement you go on ignore where you belong. It has become increasingly obvious that your opinions aren't worth much. I have no problem with a divergence of opinion but your snarky attempts at trolling and goading me into an argument will no longer be tolerated.

Shouldn't you and Eric be getting to your knitting circle soon?

[apc]

They probably lest Ray out of the game so they will have an excuse for loosing.
They are running out of excuses.
