88-76 final and it wasn't anywhere near that close. Great game.

Celtics in trouble now, down 15 to Toronto.

 

Side note, did anyone know that NBA audio league pass was free? All you have to do is register and you can listen to every game the whole season. I don't have the actual League Pass so I just listen to Grandy and Maxwell. Pretty convienient.

Looking UGLY tonight.

 

Sluggish. No intensity. Settling for jumpers.

 

Ugh, gross.

[Cocos Disciples]

Within 5 now.

 

EDIT: Within 1...

[msubulldogs21]

Some game. Wish I could see it.

 

71-70

[YanksHater213]

WOW

 

that was one of the worst calls that i've ever seen

[TheKilo]

How are they in this game?

[YanksHater213]

This game is VINTAGE Paul Pierce at his finest.

[TheKilo]

Pierce = hero mode

[Cocos Disciples]

This one's in the bag, very impressive win.

[msubulldogs21]

Wow. What a nice, nice comeback win. This is a GOOD Toronto team we beat tonight.

I don't think I have ever seen Pierce play so smooth/fluid before.....he was great late in the game!

[Dojji]

I know it's all too fashionable to be hard on the referees, but the Celts are getting RAPED late in the Hawks game! Bibby is a master flopper and the umps are buying every maneuver.

[Dojji]

PIERCE!

 

PIERCE AGAIN WITH THE LAST SECOND DEFLECTION! CELTICS WIN!

 

Flopper Bibby and all, that Hawks team is GOOD

[TheKilo]

Hawks are sick

[Dojji]

Pierce is sick. I thought when the zebras turned on the Celtics with 3 mins to go in the 4th that they were officially 7-2. Pierce made some bookie very unhappy.

[msubulldogs21]

What a shot by Pierce. Falling away. What a game!

[Dojji]

Tell ya something though the C's are going to need to stop giving me a heart attack.

Gotta quit falling behind by 15+ early on.

[PATS12RULE]

The Celtics are very strong this year. They're gonna be right at the top again.

[YanksHater213]

M-V-P.

[Jacoby_Ellsbury]

Hawks = owned

 

 

 

Take that, Rodney Mott.

[mtbykr]

I thought that game was over when they were up by 4 and had the ball. The foul call on Pierce when he blocked it was just terrible, it wasn't even close to a foul. The C's are making all of these games close, but at least they are winning them which is what's important.

[Dojji]

The Hawks had an incredible night from 3 point land. WIthout a flukishly high 3 point field goal % the game isn't close.

[Dojji]

Here they go again with the stupid turnovers in the first half. This is rapidly becoming a coaching issue or even a roster issue.

[YanksHater213]

Were'nt gonna win ewm all... gotta take the good ones and the bad ones and tinonight was aboslutely a bad one.

[The Prodigy]

Question is it me and it could be but are the celtics looking like they they just don't feel like playing anymore......? Last year they were running and looked like they had a lot more energy but this year not looking so good so far....(in comparison to last season)

Remember this time last season (and all summer of 2007), there was unbelievable amounts of hype and anticipation surrounding this team, not to mention a lot of doubters who kept bitching about chemistry and shots. The team had motivation last season, right out of the gate. This year, they're established, they won the title, they don't have anything to prove (except maybe that they can repeat, but that can't be proven in November), so as a result they're more relaxed this year. The C's are pacing themselves. They'll be fine.

[YanksHater213]

They;cve had a long ass week.... 4 games so far, so i wouldnt be suprised if theyre exhausted...

 

I expect them to bring it in milwaukee tomorw...
