Okay. Any word on Wallace yet. I hope he's out again. I feel good about this game. I can't take the local sports radio stations calling Boston the greatest team ever. Straight up hubris. They will go down. Oh yes. They willll go down.

**** Garnett. Can we all agree? That's one way to stop Allen -- poke him in the eye. Poke him in the eye!!!
Pierce is such a stud. He's not rebounding like he used to, but he still goes to the foul line a LOT.

That pass from Garnett to Perkins was just an unfair play. There's no way to stop that if they're on the run.

He passes, plays D, rebounds, and is incredibly mobile for a guy his height. If you look at his stat lines, they're a lot like MJs, minus the scoring but add in a lot more rebounds.

Hakeem, and Pippen were his teammates in Houston, no? I don't think you can say Garnett has played with that caliber of talent. (How about Phoenix when Barkley was there? KJ, Manning, Ainge...)
