Celtics are now 1 - 4 vs. the teams that are legit title contenders this year (LA, Cleveland, San Antonio).
- 23 points for Matt Bonner. I like the local guy and all, but how do you let that happen?
- Too bad because nobody will remember this 16 assist, 5 rebound, 1 turnover game by Rondo.
- The Spurs shot lights out from deep, especially in the first half. That explains, in part, why we gave up 105 points. That usually doesn't happen.
- Ray's inbound gaff is another thing that doesn't usually happen. Ray is so consistently good, that when he makes a mistake, it is jarring.
- Perk had a quiet but solid game with 5-5 shooting, 7 boards, and one memorable block on Timmay.
- Nice to see the Good Tony Allen today.
I gotta tip my cap to the Spurs. Duncan and Ginobili played great games as usual. They shot the ball well and got a big lift from Bonner. They are who we thought they were.
