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

Spurs on 5 game win streak, but this is big test to see if we are finally clicking, or if we are only winning because we are playing bad teams.

Boston's size is ridiculous and they're better offensively than they have been, seemingly
On a side note, following Shelden William's career since last year at Duke, he's one of the most over-looked pick-ups of the off season
I'm going to say the Celtics win in a close one

I'm pumped for this game!!
Two damn good,smart basketball teams going at it fully healthy....

Not sure if Davis is playing today or whatever. But if so, would be fun to watch him and Blair go at it. Might cause a tremor

I have a feeling this one is going to be good.

If we play disciplined team defense tonight, we have a pretty good shot.

Bonner the Barbarian will show no mercy tonight.

Remember when Sheed told his teammates to just give the ball to whoever Bonner is guarding? That better not be the case tonight. I'd like to see Bonner light it up tonight. We're going to need him to open the floor for us.

Listen to the TNT tools trying to compare KG to TD all time..

Kenny Smith should know Tim is the greatest PF of alltime I can't believe some people still debate over who's better between KG and TD. It's a no brainer TD is way better than KG.

We're playing in slow-motion right now. Yes, the Celtics have a good D, but that doesn't mean we have to throw away the ball like that.

Wow, Spurs not looking good so far, Celts are playing like a well oiled machine. I think its gonna take a lot longer for the Spurs to gel.

Boston is playing good defense early and the Spurs are letting them.

Dick Bavetta is looking more and more like the crypt keeper these days

Team's MUST LOVE IT when Tim puts the ball on the floor and dribbles into traffic.

Spurs are absolutely killing themselves. Turning the ball over, missing chip shots, missing free throws. Boston isn't winning this game. Spurs are losing it.

Memo to Spurs: Game started at 7.

How is garnett allowed to bearhug Timmy? That pisses me off cuz they going to call touch fouls on Tim later

Celtics winning in the shitty calls category so far.

Duncan has three TOs take that scrub out

Sheed still looks funny in green.

Hadn't had a good look at Sheed this season. He looks fatter, soft even.

Lol at Pierce trying to flop after that turnover. Fairy boy

Celts defense too tough for Spurs

Scalabrine v. Bonner. Dat's a lotta freckles...

The way this game is officiated, we are not going to win it

These refs are garbage!!!

Our only FG in 2000 years In our own basket

Spurs are sleepwalking, no energy, Celts defense killing them.

Wow the spurs beat themselves that quarter.. They're even making baskets for Boston

This is Spurs last shot and it won't happen. 2007 trophy was the last.

My dead cat could've reffed a better quarter. I don't think the refs are trying to give the game to the Celtics; I just think they're just incompetent sometimes and that was a lot of those times right there.

There is no emoticon to express what I feel...

Well this is embarrassing. We can't hit our open shots, we can't hit our free throws, and now Blair is playing for the Celtics while still wearing a Spurs jersey.

Blair is from the east coast, maybe hes pulling a Tim donaghy

At least Laker fans will be pissed because of a Celtics win

The Spurs are 1/1 when shooting the ball into the opponent's basket. We did that well!

BONNER SUCKS! . WHY DO PEOPLE NOT SEE THIS... We his is not hitting the 3 he is completely terrible...

At least Bonner doesn't score baskets for the opposing team.

Why does the ref working the baseline defer to bavetta so much?

Pop should put Ratliff on Wallace.

Somebody tell Bavetta we're in San Antonio...

Bavetta: "we're in SA? Then I'll make sure Spurs lose "

Thank god Cs are not making their WIDE OPEN THREES and FTs

Bavetta's got an agenda here....

Marquis Daniels looks like a hippie out there.

Seeing Bonner on Garnett makes me scared

I seriously can't stand KG

Can someone seriously explain to me what bonner is doing out their when he is 0/4 on WIDE OPEN threes? Please tell me..... His defense is terrible, his rebounding is terrible..

The Celtics seem to be everywhere in the court...

Ok, Perkins is pissing me off.

Why does ray Allen look like he is always chewing something when hitting ft

Yeah, let's give Garnett the jumper he knocks down the most all night.

Garnett HAS RANGE in case you haven't seen a NBA game in the pas 12 years.

Celtics making us look like a D-League team.

Maybe we would win the game if we stopped shooting.....

This attitude that these games don't matter or its early just isnt what we need anymore... Were not the team of 4 years ago... There is no showing of heart out there... No sense of urgency and it start with our head coach... Who looks like he would rather be at the winery right now.

Boston plays like we SHOULD play.. They spread the ball to ALL their weapons..they run plays for ALL of them..when a guy hasn't touched the ball in a while, they run a play for him..

The Celtics are on a whole other level right now. The Spurs are just getting embarassed.

I don't like Boston...at all. But I respect the fact that they play the type of defense we should be playing.

This crowd is completely deflated...even moreso than usual.

Mcdyess got blown up by Perkins inside

Lol rondo owning parker

Where is the vomit icon??? I need it now..watching this LIFELESS effort.

NOBODY is playing well right now. Credit the Celtics, they are MUCH more intense than we are and their D is amazing.

Ok guys lets just give the ball to Bosten each time down the floor, why even try...

Right now you can see the hunger in the Celtics, they look like they want to win it all this year. Spurs well...Still coasting I guess. Maybe in a couple of months we will see that hunger. I hope...

Mcdyess just cant match up with garnett or Perkins inside

We need more scrub teams to play lol

Damn I thought the spurs were bad the Celts players never shut up

F*** KG and his chest thumping ways.

God I hate KG....

KG going theatrical for the cameras.

The refs have been absolutely horrible in this game.. Boston is getting EVERY call..

Wallace is FAT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Just saying.

I wish OUR "big man" could pick and pop tha 3.

Celtics are killing us - all right, happens, but the way they do it isn't good.

They sure look a lot like us 3 or 4 years ago...

We can still win it easily.

Maybe if the Celts decide to forfeit...

Scalabrine makes an off-balance J at the buzzer..story of the game..

Ha...when the Celtic Ginger is making buckets...it ain't your night...

When Scalabrine is hitting buzzer beaters you know you are in trouble.

Do they just want to make Wallace look good tonight? He has been hitting 3's all his life...why would you just leave him wide open?

Well atleast I got to c gingervginger 1on1 I don't remember cn that before

Celtics are good, we are not ...

I have noticed that the Celts are not a very good rebounding team as they said.

No Garnett No Perkins It's more easy to score against Sheed or Scalabrine.

I really hate Ray Allen, just saying. I wish Bowen were here just to guard him 2nite.

Rondo > Parker tonight... That might just be the difference...

Flop by pierce

Man Rondo has Parker's number tonight, just sticking some solid D. Looking a lot better than Parker.

Rondo >>>>>>>>>>> Parker

Pop looks like a lost coach.

Anyone notice they pulled Sheed out of the game when he reverted back to being a chucker...??

Tonight was an example of a team that can stop both TD and TP... or at least considerably reduce their production...

I'll give it to them: the Spurs find creative ways to lose to the Celtics.
