The C’s were flat out cold blooded tonight like they were most of the year on the road. Its an attitude thing.

I loved seeing Ray’s early reverse layup – and that catch… set… THREE! from from Paul was ICE COLD killer type offense – ball movement. that’s part of how they took game 2 and exactly how we took game 3.

I can sleep tonight.

When the C’s defense is on, it’s scary good. Rondo hit some big baskets despite a few shaky passes down the stretch. Ball movement was excellent tonight, Rondo needs to keep pressing the ball down court aggressively and moving the ball around. And finally, the BENCH on the road!!! Pierce had only 2 points going into the 3rd. Great game.

this really is one of the best defenses of the past 20 years. It’s absolutely sick.

Doc NEEDS to realize Perk >> PJ Brown. And I’m not just saying that because of Perk’s excellent game tonight. Even if he gives you nothing on the offensive end (much like PJ), his rotations are always solid and FAST. PJ is often behind. He’s OK for a few minutes to give some rest and play some mediocre 1v1 vs. Sheed, but Perk should get the majority of the mins.

well well well 2-1 i think that we will win another win out i am feeling that

I went to sleep last night amazingly well, but this morning I couldn’t stay in bed (thus the pre-7AM post) because of what I saw last night.

First and foremost I saw some incredible defense by Detroit down the stretch and that defense makes the C’s accomplishment all the more impressive. But I saw everyone wearing a green uniform doing their job last night. The biggest difference between last night and game 2 was the role of the bench. It seems to me if everyone can play to their ability and not try to push it above and beyond — this team has more than a chance.

Welcome to the front page Redz – here’s hoping for another positive article Tuesday morning.

Just some general thoughts using last nite as an example:
1. Will someone please find a coaching job for Jeff Van Gundy. He stinks up the broadcast to the point I need to turn the sound almost off. I can’t get radio reception where I am so I can’t turn to Sean Grande and Max for help. Please, someone help. I think Mike Breen and Marc Jackson would be okay, if it was just the two of them.
2. Will someone please inform the officials before each game that Rip Hamiliton is a fake and a flopper. The garbage he did to KG to get him out of the game should be humiliating to David Stern. If not for the great play of the C’s bench last nite that one ridiculous call could have cost us the game. Rip has also pulled crap on Ray and anyone else he gets close to.
3. But at least we did get some correct charge calls last nite and PJ’s play against Rasheed, I think, where he backed off him and basically made him fall down was beautiful to watch.
4. Near the end of the game either Ray or PP hit a three with 1 sec on the clock. I believe it counted. Because of Mr. Van Gundy (having to turn the sound off) and my eyesight problems I wasn’t able to hear or see well what happened. Anyone please tell me what happened?

it was ray

A lot of the stories I read today talk about how bad the Pistons played etc… But I really think the Celtics just out played them. The refs let Detroit get away with a lot of crap and there were bad calls down the stretch, but the Celtics persevered and got the hard fought win. Best game of the playoffs so far for us and we can be a lot better, that’s scary.
