Game Of The Year (So Far)

by Jeff Clark on Jan 5, 2008 2:41 PM EST in Boston Celtics News & Links

This is the biggest game of the season so far and the Celtics really want it. See these quotes from the Herald:

"I think most important we lost to Detroit - our only loss this year in this building so far," said Ray Allen before taking off for Michigan. "That’s what we want to go in there thinking. We want to get revenge for that."
"I think subconsciously we need to (beat Detroit)," said Garnett. "I think we need to establish who we are. But we can’t get caught up into all the shenanigans and all that. Knowing that they’re the last team that beat us, there’s a little something there, but we want to see where we’re at with this. Nothing more, nothing less than that."

They’ll see where they’re at all right.
I’m worried about this game.

Me too. I’m feeling the first substantial — ie, not close — loss of the year. Though hopefully such a loss will pay off down the road. Half full…

Don’t worry bout us. we are good. Real good. This won’t be a blowout either way. Expect the Celts to learn from the mistakes they made in the first game and win in a nailbiter. I hope Allen torments Billups and I hope they tag team Maxiel with BBd and Powe. Give these guys some of their own medicine.

Step on chests!! Go C’s!
