Boston is shooting sub-.300 and they are only down by 5. None of these teams can hang with Miami even without Bosh.
Boston leads in rebounding 41-29 (13-5 on the offensive glass). That and FTs are the only reason they are close. The Celtics shouldn't out-rebound anybody. Sixers should have buried them already.
these guys are dead tired. screw boston though! I hope they lose and Ainge breaks up this old man core. Jrue Holiday is a stud.
The East is so weak. They temporarily had a resurgence a couple years ago, but forget all that now. It's garbage again.
No they wouldn't if Ray Allen and Mickael Pietrus get all the minutes at SG. David Aldridge @daldridgetnt Boston Globe reporting that Avery Bradley is likely done for the season
Top 10 teams in the West, none had a losing record to the East (Lakers were .500). The top 3 teams in the East were the only Easter conference teams with winning records against the West.
He's much better than either guy right now and he can guard Wade. Ray Allen is atrocious. I guess it's because of the bad ankle everyone keeps talking about. Pietrus won't even be in the NBA next season. I want the Sixers to win game 7 because the Celts would be an easier challenge for the Heat.
Miami were 1-3 against the Celtics and 4-0 against the Sixers. The Heat's solitary win over Boston was in the first week of the season and the only game where Bradley didn't play big minutes.
I wonder which team Morey is rooting for. I am guessing Philly. If Boston loses, given the age of their 3 stars, it may present opportunities to pursue Garnett in free agency or Pierce in a trade. The Celtics might have interest in the 14th or 16th pick if it allows them to pick Baby Doc Rivers.
