Game 4: This one is different, this is important
The giddy hangover induced by Game 3 has somewhat subsided (only to be replaced by an NFL Draft hangover). The Rockets need another victory tonight in Utah. So far the Rockets are the only team to win twice in Utah this year. Though we kinda need to also be the only team to win three times now,...
Bill Simmons and the Boston Celtics
I can't do my recap without first mentioning Bill Simmons' recent article on Doc Rivers and the Boston Celtics. It's just epic. You really have to put some time in to carry a fake conversation that far. Particularly one with that many people involved. I've been a Simmons fan now for roughly 7...
A Funny Thing Happened on the Way to the Coronation
I was so disappointed in this loss that I couldn’t even blog about it last night. Some things that stood out: Joe Johnson was begging someone to play the Larry Bird to his Dominique Wilkins. And nobody did. There were several possessions were Boston needed a bucket to crush some momentum and...
Boston Celtics vs. Atlanta Hawks - Open Game Thread: Game 4

Must Win Game?
First I want to recognize that the Boston Celtics are better than the Atlanta Hawks. In fact I’ve even come up with the Top Ten Reasons why: 10. Boston has a lot more guys that know and accept their roles. For example James Posey knows what is expected of him and what he is capable of doing....
Game 4 - The Last Stand
There aren't any (sane) Suns fans left who think this series can be salvaged. At this point its a matter of pride and heart. Getting swept by the Spurs is unacceptable. Getting swept on your home floor unfathomable. The Suns need to come out and show the poise and composure that's been lacking all...
