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.

warning….long, rambling, barely coherent emotional response coming in the Daily Babble…should be up within an hour or two…

Glad Leon Powe only saw 4 minutes of playing time tonight. After all, he has done nothing recently to deserve more time than that. Also, Rondo played 22 minutes and did not see the floor in the 4th quarter. The players were bad tonight and so was Doc. God do I HATE small ball.

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.

Or they are having a bad stretch, like every team has during the year.

think vinnie is joking and far as house i think we were 21 with him in so I think that poster was joking too

refs sucked bad i mean we need to have posey hurt someone, as he knows to do. but Ray just sucks so bad mots nights what in hell are we gonna do

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.
