    Finally! I think if we can get hot we can beat any team in the East, maybe not the Nets at full strength but every other. Pierce has been playing well lately, we need toine to step up his play.

    Well, the Celts clinched the sixth spot when Orlando got croaked by Atlanta on Monday night. Probably going to play Philly and yes, the 76ers can be beaten.

    We just need to play good ball and stay away from the three's when they aren't falling, our guys should be mature enough to relize that by not but we'll see.

    GO CELTICS!!!

    celts steal the first game. winning on monday would be huge. the celts won despite giving indiana good looks and a crap shooting night from pierce and bremer so it isnt out of the question. youd have to favor the pacers tho i guess just like u still have to favor them in the series

    yeah, but i don't think it would happen. pierce would need to be really hot and same with toine, but jermaine o neal should touch the ball every time for the pacers, because noone could stop him.

    I think if the celtics play 4 quaters of soild basketball and the Pacers confidence is running low then the celtics could come up with a win. But if Thomas found a way to encourge his team and uses a regular subing patern then the game will go down to the buzzer.
    I hope Thomas didn't though and its a good game but the celtics win!! [​IMG]

    the celtics had no reason to lose tonight. the palcers looked determined to choke and the celtics had more oppurtunitys than they could count. they just COULDNT SINK THE SHOTS on offense. the series could go either way

    89-77 final; if the Celtics didn't fall so far behind, they might have taken this one also. Thursday nights game is big; Boston should go to the basket more and get to that freaking foul line. rant

    getting behind so early again was unacceptable but they could have overcome it. the pacers did everything in their power to lose this game and the celtics refused to capitalize no matter how many chances they were given

    If we hadn't gotten so far behind the Pacers I think we could have come out of Indiana 2-0......

    Coming out of Indiana 1-1 was acceptable. Knowing they could have won game 2 has to boost the Celtics confidence level. The talk was that Pierce was ill with some sort of flu which should be cleared up by Thursday. Some of these playoff games are spaced out with tooooo many days off but in this case it will help Boston.

    Wonder what bonehead thing Isiah will do over the next two games??? P

    yea...1-1 is good. but indy knows they two could just as easily be up 2-0. thats probably the attitude theyll take to the fleetcenter, that theyre in the driver seat. think they can win 2 at the fleet?

    i think that it will probably be even at 2 a piece after fleetcenter, then the pacers will win 2 in a row to win in 6.
