    Marbury's looked like trash today, yes. But your also missing KG. I think that helps out a bit. I do think Rondo is very underrated, though. I'm probably the only Lakers' fan who will admit that.

    BTW, How does that injury bug taste :]

    Our record has been great without KG, we can get by without him pretty easily. Without Rondo, we always suck. We're making a comeback right now, though. But it should have never come to this.

    The injury bug sucks. We're down 4 guys now, 2 starters. And Baby hurt his ankle now. This is unbelievable.

    Yeah, bad time for the bug to bite you guys. They aren't serious ankle injuries, are they? I haven't seen any of them.

    Baby's looked pretty bad. Rondo seems fine and they are being precautionary.

    3 point game btw!

    Who cares :lol:

    The east is weak, as long as you guys get healthy for the postseason, you'll be good to go. Cavs don't scare anyone since they cannot win on the road. Most overrated team in the league.

    Celtics will be fine

    Nice comeback in the 4th, but a little too late.

    Celtics lose. But Magics are killers of great teams.

    Nice of that ref to call an off the ball no-call on Powe and take our chance of winning away from us with 23 secs left.

    Not really. At full strength, they can't even play on the same court as us. And also, without Rondo and KG, we are definitely not a "great" team.

    Good game Thrilla. You would've won with a full squad.

    All we needed was Rondo. 79 points, 39% shooting, 17 TOs, only 10 assists without him.

    We outrebounded them by 8 and Howard had an average game, so we could have easily survived without Garnett.

    No reason to rationalize, Celtics still #1 team in the East when healthy...

    Also, terrible move by Doc to start Marbury today. He's not ready to play 10-15 minutes a night yet, let alone starting.

    Not a surprising loss, considering Rondo and KG are two players who make us go the most.


    Should have started House instead of Marbury.

    Did you almost throw up like I did watching that first half, JE? Everybody thinks I overrate Rondo, but watching that I was starting to think I actually underrate him.

    Doc manned up in his press conference and said starting Marbury was a dumb move by him.
