Well if we get Bosh, don't have to trade Scola, and draft Whiteside we will be able to better match up with the Lakers next year in the frontcourt including Yao coming back. [B]PF - Bosh (36mpg) SF - Ariza (35mpg) C - Yao (24mpg) SG - Martin (36mpg) PG - Lowry (24mpg) Bench: PG - Llull (24mpg) SG/SF - Budinger (25mpg) PF/C - Scola (24mpg) C - Whitehead (12mpg)[/B]
Rondo needs to play aggressive if they want a chance at winning the series. He was WAY to passive. Also, all of the big four need to contribute, KG did his part tonight, but Pierce (though he had some great plays) and Allan (Jesus Shuttlesworth?? WTF Happened ). The bench stepped up big for the Celts tonight, especially Big Baby. Still Boston in 7
I wouldn't say it with Pierce - he's been a fairly clutch player over his career, especially on that 2003 Celts' team with he and Antoine Walker that went deep into the ECF. He's not perfect, but I do like his mentality. With that said, overall you're right... Ray won't go down in the books for the choker he is because of that ring, and it's sad.
Big time and that play pissed me off to no end. No team,no player would have ever done that to a team with dream on it, but when your team is soft and have boy scouts, teams do that to you
We can hate Dfish all we want, the truth is, if he was in a Rocket Uniform making those big plays for us in the playoffs when we needed a role player to step up. We would be all over his nuts. I know for a fact we could of used him in the Utah vs Rockets series when our boy Luther head had a 13% FG
Cool. People follow Sarah Palin, so you are entitled to be revolting. I just would like to cordially invite you to Lakersground.net. Keep your Kobe nuthugging off of this board.
The next two games are in Boston. Glad to see KG broke out of his slump, but where was Pierce and Allen?
ray was mad clutch v. the bulls last year if you remember. but that's not my point. ANYONE can have a clutch game here or there. ray and paul pierce have been GHOSTS for an entire series at a time throughout a playoff run. they redeem themselves by playing well for 2-3 games in the next series but then would suck again. the same applies this year. it's sad that lebron hasn't won a ring, and these guys have. hell even yao. and it's sad that tmac didn't even get past the first round. but pierce and ray will make the hall of fame first ballot.
Hardware = Accolades & Praise If thats the case, shouldnt stats count more than they do? Whats using our eyes if we just praise scrubs riding along for a ring? Though this year's postseason is VERY apparent how Fisher's championship experience is relevant. Fisher and Kobe in the Sun's game with Artest's last second shot were the only ones with a pulse on their team in the big moments. Its a huge advantage
Leeb's the kind of guy who seems to prefer that we would be more like the Jail Blazers or the pre-Brawl Pacers in the name of toughness or something. Though come to think about it, Rudy Gay's not exactly a tough player.
If all even two out of three can get on the same page for three games, they'll lock up the title. If not, fuggedaboutit.
F*** off. They busted their ass in that series. That didn't have a player to spare to "send a message" after their two centers got hurt and Artest got tossed in two games. Try watching the games next time.
The Celtics could have used me. Or you. Even a toddler on the floor would have equal productivity on the offense side, compared to Ray Allen this game.
