CELTICS GREEN BLOG by and for boston celtics fans: Comments from the Other Side

All these games with injuries to major players are not truly a test to see where we are at. Should these injured players return in the playoffs, it's a different team and NOT NECESSARILY a better team either with all the lack in playing time. When we beat someody with a healthy roster and is a title contender, then I'll be impressed.
Celitcs are too banged up to be considered for this one. Spurs Win...woo freakin hoo.

Spurs have a good chance to win this and get some momentum to the PO.

Hopefully a finals preview!

Rick Kamla just said on the pregame show that Garnett will play, but won't be on the court long. Ray Allen should be playing too.

Not a good info. Spurs sucked recently. This is very important game.

I haven't been too happy with bonner lately. Maybe he'll start to suck less that he's gotten used to gooden as his backup.

Parker demolishing the Celtics

Decent first quarter, but the Celtics won't miss that many shots for a whole game. Keep up the D!

Watch that steal be a momentum swing...way to go, the old closing out quarters bugbear bites us again.

Bonner is awesome. He wishes the Spurs played the Celtics every night.

Bonner = Celtics killer

Trade parker for rondo.................................

Perkins scoring on Duncan? Something is seriously wrong with Duncan's defense.

Perkins bumped Duncan, Duncan gave him the death glare.

Uhhh are they going to call anything in our favor? Just curious.

Wonder if Parker still thinks Rondo is overrated?

Spurs could have put them away but they have clawed back within striking distance.

You have to figure Allen or Pierce will heat up at some point. Maybe even Garnett in limited minutes.

Wow Duncan really gets screwed by the statisticians. Hes had 3 blocks that I have clearly seen, yet he has 1 on yahoo.com.
Ive always though he was a little short ended on blocks. Do the stat ppl realise its still a block if it doesn't go out of bounds and the player doesn't chest pound and fist pump?

It would be nice to sweep the Celtics espicakky uf we play these guys in the finals
I want them too We can see that rando has no chance against parker

Is Tim shooting poorly because of his injury or is there some other reason?

The Celtics play defense, you know that?

Spurs outshooting the Celtics by 15 percentage points, yet only up 5.
Not a good omen

You knew the Celtics big 3 would come out firing.

This team is really allergic to extending leads..

Crap and Celtics take the lead.

Allen showing Mason how to shoot.

there's Duncan's stupid face-up drive game that never works against most players anymore..
Perkins is one of the best 1 on 1 post defenders in the NBA, you can't do that to him..

The Celtics really are an arrogant team.

Somebody wrap rondo's ankles..

It's going to really really suck if the Spurs lose this game

I really hate fat baby Davis..

Any bets on whether Garnett plays major minutes in the fourth -- like 9 to 10 minutes?

The Celtics are giving us a free pass on the jumpers...and nobody's hitting their shots.

People have been talking about how the Celtics play dirty and bully people to put teams off, and we've seen lots of that tonight. Sad really.

OVerrated Rondo really sticking it to TP. WOW.

Rondo > Kerr

Depends on the team they're on. If you need ice-blood, dead-eye shooting you take Kerr, anything else you take Rondo.

We gave this one away...

Finley is so useless in this game

No He isn't useless He helps Boston

What a choke. We deserve this lost.

Big baby beats us. Typical.

Worse loss of the season. This team is going nowhere in the PO. Just not our year.

Finley hitting a 3 when the game is pretty finished is kinda pathetic, this game gets more bitter

I'd rather have Shaq shooting my FT's at the end of the game than Tony...

Shaq probably is more clutch than that French poodle...

Everybody chokes, besides its nice to see what Dallas fans feel like all the time

It really doesn't matter, it's still in the regular season and manu is sidelined tonight, so "Los spurs" have plenty of excuse to lose this game.

The Spurs probably just gave the Celtics their mojo back for the rest of the regular season which means they have a very good chance of holding onto their #2 seed.

It's going to be Cavs vs. Celtics in the ECF.

This was a huge game for the Celtics. They battled, never lost contact and won a game they probably should have lost. That's what champions do. The Celtics are an emotional team, so this this game will likely be a boost to them.

Paul Pierce is so unedicate Why would you made both free throws at the line when you know you won the game, that's just poor sportsman ship Doc Rivers is also a not edicate for telling the referee that there's still time on the clock its stupid.

Arent you supposed to make free throws??

I love the irony of misspelling "educate"...
