<div class='quotetop'>QUOTE </div><div class='quotemain'>They are like Michael Corleone on the day of his godchild’s baptism, or Clint Eastwood in just about any old spaghetti western. Beat them once? Good game. But they’re coming to get you the second time around. When Kevin Garnett bent over and rapped his knuckles on the parquet after last night’s 103-91 win over the Orlando Magic, the gesture was akin to putting a notch in his belt. Orlando, the first team to beat the <span style="color:#000000">Celtics</span> this season on Nov. 18, was marked from the moment the team bus lumbered into TD <span style="color:#000000">Banknorth Garden.</span> “As we say in the locker room, we were on one (for this game),” said Garnett, trying to describe how amped up his team was for the rematch. “I tried to bring an abundance of energy because I didn’t like the way I played down there (in the loss at Orlando). I wanted my teammates to feel me, so I was on one.” It turns out they all were. In addition to Garnett’s 21-point, 12-rebound effort, three other Celtics broke the 20-point barrier, including Paul Pierce<span style="color:#888888"> (</span>24), Ray Allen (22) and Rajon Rondo (23), who had one of the finest shooting nights (8-of-10 from the floor) of his career. It was the first time in eight years the C’s had four score at least 20. Last night, the play of those four was enough to withstand Dwight Howard’s 23-point, 14-rebound performance.</div> The Boston Herald
First time in 8 years to have 4 players score 20+ at the same time. Thats great. Orlando is a good team but I really think they won't go far in the playoffs since they do their living with the 3 point shot. (lewis and turk) Lewis has to be the best PF/C in the league right now, but he has much more to learn and if you double team him, he'll struggle. I don't think anyone besides him can hurt you, not even Lewis the 100+ million dollar man. (or should I call him the 50,000 dollar bar spending man) haha They'll still get their wins though.
