    Man the refs swallow their whistles around Rondo he hits arms and gets away with it more than anyone in the NBA.

    the team that erased the 7 point lead and has the other team throwing them the ball and leaving all-time 3 point shooters wide open is the unlucky team? :)

    also, it only would have been to their benefit if howard could make a clutch free throw, but that certainly wasn't going to happen.

    no doubt. every time somebody drives past him he just reaches in and swipes. i'm sure he gets all ball sometimes because he's good but it's like he's never called for it. i guess it's just his move.

    Overexaggeration.

    Offense is starting to go less and less to Howard. Offense would almost go through Yao on every possession.

    Garnett shows his propensity to choke again.

    Wow, Paul.

    That was same shot, and same results.

    Sigh.

    jameer managed to dribble the ball long enough before turning it over that boston couldn't go 2 for 1. and then he commits a terrible turnover and foul right after that. it would almost be better if kg was shooting ft's because then allen wouldn't get to shoot a 3. watching orlando in the clutch i have no idea how they have the lead.

    JVG is absolutely right but he's also using his opportunity to take blame off his brother.

    Boston choked it away.

    Lol what a horrible 5 minutes besides Ray Allen.

    Huge moral confidence for Orlando... don't expect them to just go away in game 5... they'll make Boston work for it.

    Paul tweets "Where's the broom"
    Metaphorically, those threes with same shot and same result = Dude you just snapped the broom.

    I know I worry too much, but this was a golden opportunity for Boston to close it out and they blew it. Point blank blew it. Countless almost-uncontested looks near the basket missed all game long. Other than Allen, no one could even buy a three.

    There's no doubt Orlando is the athletically superior team... the edge Boston has is primarily mental. Hopefully this doesn't erode that... :(
