2008 Boston Celtics Playoff Game thread

[The Dustball]

Wow. What is up with Lebron tonight, hes been awful

EDIT: 4 point lead with 8 seconds left

[TheKilo]

BIG GAME JAAAAAMES

[The Dustball]

Celtics Win!!! 76-72 Ray Allen doesn't even score and Pierce was terrible but KG was dominating tonight

[rician blast]

This game should have been a blow out. The C's are scaring me right now...they'll go nowhere playing like this.

[Mr Crunchy]

another reason to despise the nba.
between pierce,allen and king james you have close to 60,000,000.00 or better in salary.
lebron told his story last year when he appeared at the jake wearing a yankee hat in the alds.
something fundamentally wrong with the home boy wearing a yankee hat while his home baseball team is playing for their lives...if you notice,most people who cheer for teams outside their home town because they win are insecure deep down inside...

[Mr Crunchy]

the celtics can go to garnett in crunch time but someone else best step the fuck up or they're gone in 6 in this round.
having followed paul pierce during his ncaa days in kansas and his entire nba career in boston i can confidently say he eats it when it matters most.
so did john elway for years
so did peyton manning
so did jim plunkett
memo to paul pierce,
no one is looking to bust a cap in your ass,especially the bloods or crips.
mind your fucking manners and play basketball
an early exit this year compounded with another fucked up playoff series personally after giving you the keys to the proverbial testerosa will make a lot of people with high hopes disappointed.
jesus christ
76 fucking points at home?

Posey, Cassell, Garnett, and Perk carried the team last night.

TO be fair the officiating sucked- particularly towards Pierce both in the calls against him and the no calls that should have gone our way.

That being said, it was the worst star performance I've ever seen in person in pro sports, and the people behind us were ready to kill him.

[rician blast]

Pierce was not alone. Can Ray Allen hit a fucking jump shot?

Pc is right, the role players plus Garnett carried the team. If all of the "stars" play even decent, the game is not close.

[The Dustball]

The Celtics got extremely lucky last night. It worries me that with Lebron only going 2-18 from the floor, that the C's only managed a 4 point win. It seems like in the playoffs the C's have been unable to put a team away when they should be able to. Gotta give credit to KG who shut up his "bashers" for a day or two at least. Allen and Pierce need to get it together and play the way that they are capable of.

[TheKilo]

Did you all watch the job Pierce did on defense??

[Paradisecity]

I can't understand why we traded this guy:

He starts slow but he gets better and better

We traded him for Ray Allen.

I'm not complaining.

[Mr Crunchy]

ray allen has been disappointing and must step up now
37 minutes and 4 shots attempted against cleveland isnt going to help us.
he can shoot as well as anyone in the game but he cant create for himself
i saw paul pierces defense the other night,i saw lebron james miss 10 layups as well.
pierce has to score,if he then doesnt lebron will eventually eat him alive on the other end of the court...
garnett you can go to but the outside game has to show up tonight or they got trouble
