The Captain can still get up


Jimmy mentioned it in the comments of the recap, it does seem as though Paul is dunking a lot more this year.   That's probably a good sign.

Captain Pierce

And after the dunk he just walked away calmly down the court, superbly adding to the effect.

Defense wins games (And Championships)!

Was the knee to the balls really necessary though? Ouch.

That did look painful.

I really don’t think Paul meant it. The way he angled himself to lessen the likelyhood of a block caused him to do it, I believe.

Beating a "sub .500 team" at home...

….will only “temporarily mask” what`s wrong with the Celts.

Even in defeat, Toronto shot 56% from the floor AND out-rebounded Boston.

and we still won

by the way, toronto will not be a sub .500 team, they are much better than their record

Ridiculous that a 1 second scowl is given a "T"

There’s just no understanding that call.

As to the Raptors ending up over .500 with their complete lack of defense, I say it’s not going to happen…

that’s right about Toronto, they’re showing their true colors. I thought it was comical how many folks were picking them to be a HCA playoff team. i stand by my preseason pick of Toronto going back to the lottery.

Pierce is definitely in Better Shape this year, too.

In my opinion he looks to be in better shape than even 2007-2008. He is truly hungry.

And wait until KG gets his legs back…

People said this last season

Paul Pierce came into training camp last year 5-10 lbs lighter then he was the championship season

Not that i dont agree with him being in good shape, but we say the same things seemingly every year

Thank you for the video

Strange that Paul gets a T for expressing concern that Bosh was laid out on the floor.

Seriously, you can never tell what kind of smack talk has gone on prior in a game. This T was just plain silly.

by CelticPride on Nov 28, 2009 12:58 PM EST reply actions  

Hahaha, you can’t actually believe that was him “expressing concern.” Thats gotta bet he funniest thing I’ve read all day. I think he was just admiring the work his elbow and knee did on Bosh.

Good dunk by The Truth, but not his best ever..

Does anyone remember when he dunked on Baron Davis from the feed from Big Al? That was a true facial! Wondering if there are any videos of it anywhere.. if so, please post!

by capela on Nov 28, 2009 11:36 PM EST reply actions  

much more of him this year

Pierce this year is much more aggressive than the last years. He has the energy the whole team should have. I guess the knee didn’t was his intention. (unlucky CB4 in this sequence) & BTW we won this game because of the rare good performance of Sheed – if he would play more consistently, we would win it all… For toronto: they have a good team now but I would increase DeRozans minutes – Belleneli is overrated, DeMar will be the next super star and bring them in championsship range ^_° (but not with couch Triano – he will be fired soon)

I asked god and he said: L.A. will lose again next year!! ^_°
