Celts Still In Better Shape Than B’s
It’s official. The Celtics simply can’t take advantage of mismatches when they present themselves. In game 1, the C’s were handed Ray Allen vs.JJ Redick and Ray sucked, while that Dukie bitch Reddick had a great game. Now they had Rondo vs. Anthony Johnson and it might as well have been Rondo vs. Magic Johnson for a while. The Celtics are the ultimate Dr.Jeckyll and Mr. Hyde team right now. When they’re on… they’re fucking fantastic. When they’re off, they suck. In this one, they sucked.
Why didn’t they ride Eddie House’s hot hand? Every Celtics fan knows that when Eddie hits 2 or 3 shots early, he’s not going to miss anymore. House was 6 of 7 and 3 of 4 from 3. You need a hot Eddie House until the fire burns out. Missed opportunity.
Speaking of missed opportunities. How many layups did Big Baby miss?
Ray Allen: 3-13. Paul Pierce: 6-15. Rajon Rondo: 7-17. Add them up and you get 16 of 45. Fucking. Terrible.
Dwight Howard blocked a bunch of shots early, but again, none were his man. He commits so much to blocking shots on the help side, he’s leaving his man wide open. You beat Dwight Howard’s defense by going right to the rim, and when he comes over, dump it to his man, who is almost always open because Orlando doesn’t rotate on D.
Does Stan Van Gundy do anything in time outs besides yell out cliches?
Marcin Gortat has the look, and name, of a movie villain. Maybe the muscle for the bad guy in a Bruce Willis movie or something. Hedo Turkoglu looks like the guy who got acid dumped on his face.
Let’s give credit where credit is due. Orlando is a terrible playoff team because they bomb away from 3 no matter what the situation. But in Game 3, they didn’t do that. They let Rashard Lewis use his height and agility advantages by posting up Big Baby early. They attacked the basket and controlled the game early. Then they got hot from dowtown in the second half and put the C’s away. If THIS Orlando team keeps showing up, then the Celtics are going to have some problems. I still don’t think Orlando can do it… but now I’ve seen it’s possible. And that’s at least worrisome.
Celt’s in Better shape than B’s?
Why do Basketball guys hate the local hockey team and vice versa? I can never understand it.
Both are worse shape than el prez
Celts are only in better shape because they’ve only played 3 games. Wait till they are down 3-1 after next game. Oh wait, i’m supposed to believe they actually have a chance w/o KG
celts stunk-up the joint last night. should have lost by 40. should have done more running and gunning. but we can’t have Rondo and Allen play terrible and have any chance.
Kballs,
He’s right. B’s giving us no reason to believe they can come out of this. They look terrible.
CKB,
cuz the Bruins suck balls and are a terrible organization and don’t deserve any fans
Don’t have to be a rocket scientist to make a statement a team down 2-1 is in better shape than a team down 3-1.
Bruins need a convincing win in Game 5 – something like 4-0 or 5-1 and this momentum can swing right back. I think we all agree they can win Game 5 and a potential Game 7 so lets not think this is impossible.
Fans and media flip flop after each game. Celtics sucked in Game 1, then they were going to win series easily after Game 2, now they suck again. Lets not overact after each game.
Bruins, yes they look bad right now, but if they win Game 5, pressure shifts back on Carolina to win Game 6 at home. By Game 7, everyone will be expecting Bruins to win series.
Lets all calm down, get a grip, and not change our opinion of these teams after each game.
Soog, I agree they played pretty shitty the last couple of games. I just don’t understand tearing one local team down to feel better about another. (BC sports don’t count)
Even though they hit two posts in the first, I’m making no excuses. I’ve heard people say “Well if those go in, it’s a different game”. To which I say if my aunt had balls she’d be my uncle.
They got rolled, plain and simple. But I’ll keep the faith in the teams I’ve watched all season. No need to bail yet, it’s a long summer.
Enjoy the ride. Bruins and Celtics don’t suck. NY Islanders and Sacromento Kings suck. Two teams in the second round, enjoy it and take it all in, there aren’t many years like this.
The Celtics need to play defense. The Bruins need to clear the zone and be way more aggressive in forechecking.
On a tangent, Chelsea is a cutie so I’m not going to ‘dis her. I’m happy that El Pres has picked up a sponsor . . . but lemme tell you about this beer. It’s from the Dominican Republic, and it’s chilled donkey piss. Trust me on this one, guys. I’ve taken plenty of vacations in Punta Cana, and it’s the Budweiser of Haiti. Well, if you like your Budweiser skunked, bitter, watered down, and then re-skunked, then warmed to 50 degrees.
I’d rather drink a Michelob Ultra. And that’s really saying something.
New Bruins TV commercial: ‘NEVER give the team a day off during the Playoffs.’
as much as I wish this was true think both are going down hard!! Not even sure the Celtics will win another game. http://www.CTsportsPicks.com
Look at pierce in that picture…he literally stands there and reacts to play in every game, on every play if he isnt doing anything, hes arms twitch and he makes weird faces….odd…never seen anything like it…watch out for next time
Lol…a picture says a thousand words…the ref looks suprised with anthony johnson..
and you bring up a good point…cant take advantage of mismatches….Im sick of celtics fans putting any blame on rondo whatsoever, and call him inconsistent when he doesnt play perfect. um this team would have been swept by the bulls if it wasnt for rondo mother fuckers….and rondo vs anthony jonhson is a harder matchup for him then rafer alston…people couldnt figuree out…RAFER ALSTON SUCKS, IS WEAK, AND THE CELTICS DONT EVEN HAVE TO GUARD HIM WHEN HES ON THE COURT. that scheme doesnt work with jonhson
ray allen and pierce are playing like idiots
both of bostons team are gunna be out of the playoffs by the middle of next week…so all of yall can shut the fuck up and stop bitching about everything blame your teams not all the other shit you guys like to use as scapegoats….BITCHS!!!!!!!!!

Chi town – your parents came home from vacation – I know that’s why you couldn’t post lately. I see they went out for dinner so you could login to BSS and comment for 50 minutes today.
CTF – I live on the East side, where are you from?
If I could I would hop in my delorian and kill both of chi-towns parents…his mothers one weakness is repeated and consistent donkey punches.
Considering Celts got House’d* 2-3 games, I would be worried.
*House’d is the new slang term for Bitch Slapped.
That pic is awesome.
Look at Pierce “playing” defense.
Thats something right out of Looney Tunes.
