    The guy knows Yao and Tracy better than any other guy out there. In our 1st game vs. Boston last year, he shut down Yao (Tracy was out). In our 2nd game, he shut down Tracy to the point he was hurting us (Yao was out).

    This man ended our 22 game win streak, minus Ray Allen. We had one of our worst offensive nights in that game. Will he give us our first loss of the season?

    (PS I started a similar thread like this once or twice last year, so if anyone can find those, you can merge this into them. Thanks.)

    That's why we have the Tru Warier...he'll help open up things for Yao and T-Mac and he makes our team less predictable.

    It's easy to shut down one star player when you have a bunch of low-skilled role players around him. We'll see how they do shutting down our team with 3 stars on the court.

    Tom Thibodeau should be afraid of Tru Warier.

    Don't you think we could stop them if they were without 2 stars when we have all three stars? How about us having Artest and Yao while they only have Pierce. That was the handicap we were giving them. We don't need to fear Tim... it is he that should fear us.

    Maybe Pierce will pull Ron's pants this time. :D

    Too bad, we don't have Battier. Having Artest AND Battier on the floor would be nice for matching up with Boston.
