Everybody Let’s not sugar coat this sucker.  It was pretty bad all the way around.  So I’m not going to waste my time running through every single player. But there were are a couple of bright spots: KG shot [...]

The Celtics took a long, hot piss on my preview optimism tonight.  They had an early 6 point lead, but they relaxed late in the quarter to let Detroit cut the lead to 2, and then they took the rest of the night off.  C’s fall to Detroit… DETROIT!!!!…. 103-83 The Green:  Rondo got his 10th [...]

Starters Offense:      Defense:      Overall: The man had a great game… it’s that simple.  There’s some debate over the validity of some of the 20 assists he had, but that doesn’t change the fact that a majority [...]

Rajon Rondo returned from a 1-game injury absence to lead the Celtics past the Raptors 107-89 with 20 assists.  Jason Terry (20) and Paul Pierce (19) paced the Celtics balanced scoring effort as the C’s finally put together a wire-to-wire shellacking this season.  The green looked a bit green in the second quarter when they [...]
