Sun Burned
Celt's go down in flames 85-77
What a terrible performance. Everything was awful. Shooting, rebounding, turnovers. I guess the Celtics solved the defensive issues, but that doesn't do much for you when you shoot 38% and have 20 turnovers.
Here's a link to the carnage ...I mean boxscore if anyone is really interested.
(Hat tip to Mean Gerald Green for the headline, I'm too depressed to be creative)

Interior defense looks weak right now. I’m not sure what the problem is, but the suns got way too many easy buckets down low. Garnett and Perkins weren’t clicking tonight. And Eddie House should have got benched after his lame D on Nash; Nash was playing horse with Eddie in the fourth quarter and won. C’s gotta get nastier on D, and more consistent.
I thought this was our worst game of the year, yet we played defense pretty well for pretty much most of the game.
Our two best players were KG and Tony Allen and that’s not saying a whole lot when we have PP and RA who both were really off their game.
I think this team is getting tired of the carrying the expectations or something….they need a jolt and Danny needs to find some help, cause even our bench is not producing anymore.
Leon should play more,period. I wanted Ainge to get another rebounder/big man. Probably none were really available. Ray has been a disappointment. Haven’t really seen two or three really good games strung together. Maybe it’s the age and the ankles. One or the other. Sam Cassell cannot play D but can help this team in halfcourt with smarts and execution. But I still love Rondo. He will be the future of this team. Jason Kidd light type in a few years. The only reason to keep Perkins is his size yet we keep getting outrebounded. ?? Better days are ahead.
You can’t get rebounded by 18 and shoot as poorly as they did and reasonably expect to beat a quality team. As I kept looking up from my perch on the couch I a would see another turn
over and most seemed to be the careless type.

Gentlemen, I started to listen to these Gold pod casts with Eric Weis. I only saw highlights of this game but my god Amare!
I love KG,I do! But with Shaq it brings Amare to a whole new level at the 4. There is no way and I mean no way that the Celts will beat Phoenix in a 7 game finals series.
Shaq only has 2 years left though.
