Celtics kick off a five game roadtrip tonight in Chicago. KG and Rose look to still be on the mend. Can the C's rebound after that terrible performance against Detroit?

Pierce is determined to have a bigger impact than he did last night.

Truth's flying through the air with the greatest of ease.
Noah's no finisher.

Getting the ball to them since they are scoring with ease.

I don't understand how Ray Allen can so completely lose his man off several picks but still somehow not be open when the ball gets to him.

I love that Rondo is trusting himself to shoot recently. While he's never going to be someone you want shooting contested jump shots, he shoots the open ones well enough that, if he keeps taking that shot, teams are going to have to start respecting it.

Guy from the other side of the court calls the block through approximately eight bodies. Drink.

Rondo leading the break is so sexy.
One could actually build a team around this guy....

What the heck is wrong with Ray?
Is he hurt or does he suck this badly when we aren't catering the offense to him running off screens?

Bradley is lucky that wasn't a charge. Watson was moving, but Bradley pretty much fell into him.

I know what you mean, but Ray isn't getting off any shots at all. One shot attempt for an entire quarter?
Maybe we are phasing him out of our offense?

Why in the world is Dooling seeing minutes for this team?
Play Moore with Bradley and see what they can do together. Dooling is awful.

No, I think he's just a few steps slower than usual tonight (last few games, actually), and he's not getting open. He's no spring chicken.

Not the worst idea. Shouldn't phase him out, but the whole offense completely sucks when he's running around screens and not getting open. He generally gets much better looks off penetration by Rondo or Pierce and on fast breaks.

This team really needs to improve its defensive rebounding. If you're giving up second chance opportunities, your great defending goes to waste. It's upsetting to see them force a bad shot only to have the opponent's bigs outworks our bigs for a rebound.

Is rebounding really something that can be improved? Seems to me it's pretty much a "we are what we are" situation.

When your team makes no effort to box out, it should be something you can work on in practice.Is rebounding really something that can be improved? Seems to me it's pretty much a "we are what we are" situation.

I mean they can make it a point of emphasis if they haven't already. Other than that, may be an acquisition/trade. I'm not really sure. I'm not a fan of our bigs getting bossed inside though.Is rebounding really something that can be improved? Seems to me it's pretty much a "we are what we are" situation.

Honestly thought that said 36-71 and wondered what the hell happened and why that seemed so plausible.
But hey they're ahead so good for them.
