Post-ASB hangover? Tough team to play for the Celtics as they get up-and-down the floor at a faster clip. Hope they are ready to play.

The last time the Celtics beat GS in Oakland, Jiri Welsch, who GSW traded to Boston only 4 months earlier, scored 15 points. Pierce had 21 and Jason Richardson had 17 for GSW. December 29th 2003 was the date. The Ws are even hot right now, having beaten OKC, NO and Utah in their last 3. 3 in a row is a good streak for them. Cs need to stop the insanity!

[JohnnyTheBone]

I hate State. These pricks always seem to beat our ass in Oakland.

Let's change that script this evening, I'm going to start drinking early.

W ~ I ~ N

[radsoxfan]

I have an irrational desire for Perk to leave as a FA and finally be able to root for all the stupid play he makes. He brings toughness, but the guy is a liability in so many ways.

[Mr Weebles]

Walton is on the broadcast?

Thank Christ for the mute button.

[radsoxfan]

Walton just killing Curry and Ellis. Gotta admit, hes pretty funny sometimes

[radsoxfan]

Perkins is a catastrophe out there. Just a complete catastrophe on offense in every sense of the word

[Statman]

For once can Perkins just catch the ball and take it straight to the hoop without bringing it down for a dribble?

Perkins getting the ball wide open down low has reached "Knoblauch throwing to 1st" levels. He is completely incompetent in every way. It has to be mostly mental at this point. He's always been bad, but never this bad.

Takes too much time, brings the ball down, loses the ball or gets blocked constantly. He must be converting 10% of the time on plays than an average NBA player would convert over 90% of the time. The guy is WIDE FUCKING OPEN.

Does anyone have a feed other than the ones on atdhe and channelsurf? Those feeds keep skipping (plus it's the warriors feed).

[CJM]

Is Von Wafer starting to demonstrate some consistent value, or do I just happen to perk up at his name because it's the greatest name ever?

[radsoxfan]

This bench is really really bad. Need Shaq back, Delonte to get the rust off, and a new addition on the wing.

[shawnrbu]

Nate might be the worst player on the team.

[radsoxfan]

Nate might be the worst player on the team.

Don't underestimate the suck that is Avery Bradley.

But considering Nate is undersized and Bradley in theory is good at D (although in practice he overplays and gets burned all the time), it might be close.

One can only hope that with Delonte back running the second unit offense, Nate can be left alone to take the occasional three and play as much defense as he's capable of.

[Mr Weebles]

Semih is playing like a huge pile of feces.

[radsoxfan]

Semih giving Perk and Nate a run for their money for most embarrasing performace by a Celtic tonight

[Statman]

What is Walton talking about when he said twice that we were trading Big Baby???

[radsoxfan]

Doc, please take Perk out for his own good

[dolomite133]

I just turned on the game, and came face-to-face with two disappointing facts: Celtics are down and Walton is calling the game.

[dolomite133]

Walton is the anti-Tommy. He just shits all over the Celtics all game long.

[Mr Weebles]

Wow, what a lazy, stupid foul by Perk there.

Embarrassing.

[shawnrbu]

Rondo isn't a winner of the genetic lottery?

[dolomite133]

One moment, Celtics down five, Walton says "Celtics are showing no signs of getting back in this game!"

Next moment, Celtics in the lead, Walton says "...."

[scottyno]

ha, fooled by the fake pierce iso

[Riles335]

Relax with the Walton hate. He is calling a great game, very non biased. Love his different take on things.

[Sprowl]

Walton is the anti-Tommy. He just shits all over the Celtics all game long.

Bill Walton is not all about the milk of human kindness, that's for sure, but in the next breath, you know that 1986 was still the best year of his life.

Rondo isn't a winner of the genetic lottery?

Talk to the hands.

[dolomite133]

I can only hope that the Heat are bounced from the playoffs on another team's court, and that in the final moments of the final game, they play a never-ending loop of Wade saying "get me outta here!" on the jumbotron.

[RedOctober3829]

Way to start the half!

[dolomite133]

Doc needs to spend the next two weeks drilling this team on fast break 101. It's amazing how bad they are at finishing on the break.

....aaaaaaaaaaaaand Perk goes out with some sort of ailment. In a perfect world, where money didn't matter, this team would outright cut four players now and sign ANYONE able to play to fill those slots and rest the starters. Otherwise we are going to relive 1987 all over again.

[AimingForYoko]

Oh Perk.

[dolomite133]

Walton getting sweet on Baby's mom!

[Riles335]

Ellis missing a few easy lay ups, leading to scores on the other end.

Baby is perfect for these west coast, run and gun type of games. He is mobile, moves well up and down the court, and can keep up with the quicker big's that these teams have to offer. Perk on the other hand, is more for the half court type of game. Baby coming up big tonight!

[Riles335]

On the topic of bigs...GET SEMIH OUT OF THIS GAME!

He is playing like total crap!

[dolomite133]

Ray is looking a little out of sort tonight ...

[stp130]

Jesus, Ellis gets the put-back with 4 Celtics just STANDING THERE.

[AimingForYoko]

Mike defending Semih from Walton is kind of hilariously awkward/adorable.

[Riles335]

Rondo...Rondo...Rondo, I love you but just take the lay up

[stp130]

Why is Delonte West shooting threes????

[dolomite133]

Wonder what the heckler said to Doc? Whatever it was pissed Walton off.

[Riles335]

Semih and Luke for a minute here!

[AimingForYoko]

Walton needs a smoke.

[Sprowl]

Rondo's pretty good at the leaning last-second threes, since he absolutely positively has to shoot.

[mikeot]

Jesus, when is Nate going to get off the snide?

Edited by mikeot, 23 February 2011 - 12:28 AM.

[TFisNEXT]

Jesus this is fucking ugly to start the 4th

[stp130]

Only two days left to get rid of the sack of dung that is Nate Robinson....

[Riles335]

Get Semih out of there

[Gravistar]

As one of our opposing announcers said a few games ago, "Just let Robinson keep shooting and we'll get back in the game."

Edited by Gravistar, 23 February 2011 - 12:34 AM.

[dolomite133]

Walton with the old Celtics reference. You knew it was only a matter of time. ... And the nice pass by Rondo to Pierce! Finally the Cs finish a break!

[Riles335]

Paul Pierce running the floor!
