CELTICS GREEN BLOG by and for boston celtics fans: Fiddlin' and Diddlin'

Herald Wait lifted from Celtics
No slippage with Rajon Rondo
FL's Take: Rondo was awesome in his playoff debut. It seems as though right from the beginning, people were questioning Rondo and he has answered every question emphatically.
Celtics return playoff aura to Garden
Celtics crowd pumps up volume
FL's Take: Hopefully, the Celtics can get just as pumped up playing on the other teams courts. I know we have home court advantage and don't have to win on the road, but it sure would be nice to close out series early by winning in their buildings.

Trade no big deal to Joe Johnson
Celtics big fans of post season play
Pistons misfire
FL's Take: This is the first big upset of the playoffs. The Sixers are playing great and the Pistons are arrogant. This may wake them up to the fact that they actually have to try to win a series.
Lakers, Gasol put on show of Pau-ER
FL's Take: The Nuggets lack of defense is making the Lakers look very good.

ESPN Boston riding high with opening win, celebrates by playing whack a Powe
FL's Take: I love Leon Powe! Apparently, KG does too. Leon's dunk sure did fire him up. I can see Leon playing a big part in these playoffs. He is one of the most underrated players in the league right now.

Fox Sports Rondo gives the Celtics yet another weapon
FL's Take: Rondo not only hit his open jumpers, but he hit some incredibly tough shots including that runner in the lane against half of the Hawks and the one on the baseline that they waived off because of the foul. It's about time for the Rondo can't shoot talk to go away.

Lex Nihil Novi 1-2-3 Ray!
FL's Take: Ray is often the open man. He moves well without the ball and most teams choose to double Pierce and KG and that leaves Ray open in many cases. Fortunately for the Celtics he makes them pay more often than not.
1986 C's take 1-0 over Bulls
FL's Take: I just love these looks back to the 1986 season and the parallels with this season. I hope that the parallels extend all the way to the title.

Newsday Sunday morning briefing (Thibodeau interested in Knicks job)
FL's Take: I know that Thibodeau is going to be in demand for the many head coaching jobs around the league and I know he deserves to be a head coach. But, I hate to lose him. I don't think this team is near as good without his defensive coaching. I would love to see the Celtics do whatever it took to keep him but realize that is probably isn't possible.
