after he took out that kid on the sidelines after the last shot. I got no problems with it though!

MF, MF, MF

yes, BBD saved the season

I hope the C’s are looser at home and get it done easier; they are making this way harder than it needs to be

the kid looked pretty pissed.

Pierce made the plays, Davis just finished. It shows Pierce’s maturation as a player. In past years he would have forced his own shot against the double team.

say…
die…

this is fun to watch if not masochistic!

great game!

Bruins-check, Celtics-check, Red Sox…

Where are you sugar Ray?

Hey Jeff, Yahoo Sports stole your heading :)

1. Incredible shot by Baby (nice assist Paul), and what a post-shot reaction and TV interview!

2. 4th quarter wasn’t that bad, but for three quarters that was the worst officiated game I can remember (1st time complaining about officiating on the internet).

3. That game had me nervous throughout. Terrible free throw shooting.

4. Celtics go home alive!

Come on Rajon. This series is there for you to take it over and win it. You gotta come to play. PLEASE!

One shot, one shot , that one shot made up for all those FT he missed earlier.

Did our bench travel with the team?

played AWESOME TONIGHT!! He basically won us the game, 6+ minutes +1, gave rest to our bigs and kept everybody else out of foul trouble. Besides our hero Glen Davis, Mikki won us this game!!!

The reverence and admiration he showed for Bill Russell in the stands after he made the shot. He knows his history. Can you imagine making a shot that saves the season in front of an icon like that? Gives me goosebumps thinking about it.

that gave Orlando the lead.

He didn’t have an awesome overall game, a few TOs and the free throws kept him from that.

But he rebounded hard in the second half after a poor effort in the first and he hit the big shots.

The Celtics shot the ball VERY well, and held Orlando to 40% shooting. Yet, had to win this off a buzzer beater. I hope this is not a sign of how well the Celtics should play and how bad Orlando should play in order for us to win.

Lock him up to a long term contract…do not let him get away!

That perimeter jumper of his is money!

Not to mention all the “dirty work” his does i the paint.

Why THAT pic? I HATE that fruity pic of BBD. Love the game winner, hate the gay pic!

we played better d, closing down the lanes and keeping them off the dribble. we don’t win anything easy this year. pp played smart, which he frankly hasn’t this series. perk is the most cosistent celt and is the most valuable up to now. just hope his shoulder holds out. mikki and steph were nothing great but are being a bit scapegoated here. doc has to play mikki like he did tonite; not much, but to save fouls for the others. no mikki tonite and we have 2 foulouts. steph played good d and pushed the ball.

We don’t score for half the 4th quarter, miss a bunch of free throws and get 2 points from our bench! I’m not sure if we won it more or Orlando lost it. But it don’t matter!! I’ll take it! The effort was definitely there tonight compared to game 3. Still, Baby saved their butts tonight.

1. Rondo needs to play D like Marbury…hes being pretty lazy on the defensive end right now
2. Orlando is lucky Ray Ray isnt shooting good or this series would be done already
3. Big Baby is hitting the same shots KG would be getting, only if he was 7 feet tall for Defensive purposes!
4. Key notes for game 5 – Get Dwight in foul trouble and make sure Lewis & Turk dont get hot
We got lucky to win tonight not scoring for almost 7 minutes in the 4th..but ill take it a win on a bad night…Game 5..best home crowd in the NBA..lets get it!!!

-oh yeah..nice to see pierce drive to the lane and set the tone early!

Anyone doubting that Big Baby was the “steal” of the 2007 draft?

Just a mere “throw-in” in the Ray Allen draft night trade.

Disagree Scott. Perk played pretty well tonight. Thought his D on Howard was very good early.

Magic made an adjustment at half and had R Lewis throw it straight down to Howard deep under the basket rather than out on the blocks where Perk could muscle him; give SVG credit for a decent half-time adjustment

Both teams missed a ton of shots down the stretch in the 4th Q. Somehow I wondered if someone in the stand was controling the baskets with a remote. Given the technologies today, it is easy to do.

I don’t know what feels better. A road win to tie up the series or knowing Norman Chad is not getting any sleep to night? LOL

lets go starbury 18 we’re taking it the whole thing

I don´t hav a problem with miki staying with his man, he got burned once for a triple so…

What i didnt lik was House didnt get his looks, that almost cost us…

Why start baby and then when he gets 1 foul put in Scal until h gets 2 fouls?

Put miki in half way tru the 1st period for a junk foul…

i have to admit, when i saw the ball leave baby’s hands i thought the game and maybe the series were lost. Terrifying to see someone other than ray or pierce take that shot.

- The relatively low assist total doesn’t bode well. PP was great, but we can’t go far playing each-man-for-himself ball, regardless of how great PP is.
- The lack of 3-point defense was very worrisome. Magic got off 27 3-pt shots, almost ALL of which were WIDE open. We just got lucky that they missed all but 5.
- Free throws. Geez. They’re FREE guys! Hit a few.
- Bench… oh my. Why the team did not look to free House, or pass to him when he was free (which was often), I don’t understand. He has been white hot. Marbury started off great with an excellent quick assist and teardrop basket. Next 3 shots missed, and he was gone after 6 minutes.
- Rondo was solid, but not the Rondo we need… the one that gets 18 assists per game.
- But the most worrisome thing is… this Magic team, as currently configured, is really quite mediocre. The way they were shooting, it should have been a blowout, not a 1-point buzzer-beater.
- And the biggest problem is… if/when we get past Orlando, we have to face the Cavs. And my friends, the Cavs today are playing on a completely different plane from either the Cs or Magic. (Denver too, btw.)

(Btw, Bill Kennedy clearly has it in for the Celtics. They should investigate, and bar him for refereeing any more Cs games this season. Refs were horrible altogether, sometimes in our favor, sometimes not. But Kennedy was uniformly anti-Boston, all night.)

Another great timeout play called by Doc with great execution.

I thought the last play was poor. Why would they run the play down to 1 sec before anything happened!
