Dang, thus far, Boston is really impressing me. If they take a game in Orlando, I think this thing'll go 7.
What was that thingy SVG said about secondary offense off sets? Why not just ISO VC and be done with it?
That was a very interesting game. Dwight Howard seems extremely emotional to me. If Boston beats Orlando, is Stan van Gundy on the hot seat?
With the "Core Four" healthy, and with Davis, Tony Allen, and RaSheed engaged off of the bench, I think the Celtics are the favorites right now to win it all. Rajon Rondo has more than made up for the small steps backwards in Garnett's game (due to age).
Big men just don't score in the playoffs any more. This is why don't like the theory of running the offense through Oden (once he is healthy) 7 turn overs for Howard today. 3 of 10 shooting. Rashard Lewis needs to step up.
What was it, the "in 5" or the "C's"? I think Orlando is our best matchup of all the teams in the playoffs. I would be shocked if the Celtics lost the series.
What I like the most about the Celtics now is how Doc Rivers was about to be run out of town prior to Ainge getting Garnett and Ray Allen. I'd argue now that Doc is the best coach in the NBA, and I've always thought he was a good coach. How the hell was he going to coach Al Jefferson to the championship? It's a player's league. Get the best players, and you win titles. LA and Boston have the best players right now, but Orlando will win Game 2.
