    The Celts need to take a long hard look at themselves.

    Like JVG said, it will be interesting to see how ORL comes out next game.

    Same can be said for the Celts.

    Duh?

    Series tied 2-2 (PHX - LA)

    BOS leads 3-2.

    It's numerically impossible for it NOT to go 6 games, lol.

    I personally believe both series will go 7.

    Better summon the ghost of Mr. Miyagi to heal Rondo's leg(s). He hasn't been very effective the last 2 games with his spasms or w/e.

    Yea, he did a lot...

    A lot of replacement level PG play - dribbling the ball up the court and handing it off to playmaking wings. When he wasn't doing that, he was rarely penetrating and finishing or getting to the line.

    He was an above average team defender and he didn't turn the ball over. The latter was largely because he played so extremely conservatively, almost never penetrating and creating off the dribble. The Rondo and Nash types will turn the ball over more because they are more active and take more risks to create easy baskets for teammates.

    I think it's more about the pace of the game... their defense needs to improve in order for them to win. I don't believe Rondo will have any problems in game 6.

    Thread was once Yao vs. Dwight.

    Now it's the Rafer Alston thread.

    The Magic won't come out in game 6 just happy to have avoided the sweep. They smell the Finals now.

    Hahahah, they just replayed Davis's concussion. He's on the floor scrambling to get up and Doc Rivers is waving him on "get up fatty, get back on D!" and keeps screaming as Davis hobbles towards the other side. Thanks for the concern, coach! :rolleyes:

    I knew the Celts would lose by watching the last play of the first half... Rondo penetrated and got stuck. None of the other 4 Celtics exerted any effort to get open... they all looked planted in the same spot they were standing when Rondo started his drive. Rondo pivoted desperately looking for someone, yet nobody moved. He took a bad fade-away as the buzzer sounded. No energy.

    (Of course, I one started a thread suggesting the Celts were done.)

    Doc Rivers sucking the refs dicks about the two techs on Perkins so the refs will play nice in Boston. Pathetic.

    Rashard Lewis and Vince Carter have got to step up if the Magic are gonna even have a chance at this series.

    What sucks is if Orlando does indeed win the series, you can pencil in the Lakers to win the championship.
