    you rather him jack up dumb ass shots just like kobe did on sunday? you say you played for 15 years so you know that you should find the open man. if he shoots that dumb shot the whole board would be saying he needs to get other people involved and stop jacking damn if you do and damn if you don't

    Here's hoping that Detroit can take out Boston if we somehow are able to get through the playoffs intact. I don't want a rematch with these guys without Yao.

    Do not worry everybody, the same ones saying "Tmac is heartless" or calling him a quitter, will be calling him the MVP in a couple of days, just how they do things. Listen this team did a marvelous thing, why can't we just focus on that? What other team won 22 games in a row this year? We are not a horrible team for losing one damn game.

    AND without Ray Allen, their best shooter.

    This Celtics team is SCARY great, not just good.

    As I said, the two best teams in the league this season are in the East: Celtics and Pistons. One of them will be the champ, my money is on the Celts.

    Because the COACH put him there. Last I checked, McGrady wasn't the coach and doesn't get to make such decisions.

    Any of you who thought this would last forever are just plain silly. Boston didn't get their record by only beating teams in the East. They're a damn good team. This is a bad match up for the Rockets.

    Though, I hope we meet them again as that would mean we're in the finals.

    Don't forget they are playing a team without an Allstar, and promising rookie.

    I hate to say it but after both Celtic games we now know who the most important player on the team is.

    We are not a bad team. T-Mac has just been extra passive these past two games. Sometimes you have to take over. The team saved him last game but couldn't do it today.

    As much as I love Kobe's heart.. Even he couldn't do much better tonight with this defense... Especially if your teammates can't hit the ocean if they were on a boat in the middle of the sea..

    You guys want to blame T-Mac so much that you fell to realize this is the BEST.. not 2nd 3rd or 4th... But the best defense team in the NBA..

    Ata boy Harris, I love to see him working hard, down 19 3 minutes left, that's how it is for a guy playing on a 10 day contract. Love to see it.

    We should give Scola more chance near the basket, not the Stupid P&R with Tmac.

    Adleman has put in his best three point shooters. Only way we got a chance to come back.

    The Celts are best but the Pistons don't belong up there with them. If the Pistons were in the West, they would have between 22 and 25 losses.
