No let downs. Keep it rolling at the Amway. Make Big Baby wish he was still in Green.

I would just like to point out how terrible Brandon Bass has played this season. Hideously awful in every possible way.

Edit: I take it back, he is shooting 89% on Free Throws. Otherwise, the point stands.

David Steele and Matt Guokas have lost their shit. They've decided that the assist is a meaningless statistic.

[MyDaughterLovesTomGordon]

Did Scal just call Pau Gasol a future hall of famer?

[MyDaughterLovesTomGordon]

Also, Scal is awful.

[ifmanis5]

Scal can't understand how players are good off the bench.

[Blacken]

Also, Scal is awful.

I really disagree. I think he's more more informative and insightful than most of the regulars I've heard around the league.

[Blacken]

That could be an insult to the regulars around the league, though.

Eh, plenty of them deserve it.

[JakeRae]

It's hard to imagine a player being worse than Green has been so far tonight.

[MyDaughterLovesTomGordon]

I think Scal knows a lot of the players still in the league, and has some cool anecdotes, but his feel for when to talk and his delivery so that you can easily understand him, are bad. Just not a good broadcaster yet.

More simply: he talks goofy.

I think he's more knowledgeable than most of these guys, though. He knows what he's talking about, and I think he's pretty good at breaking it down on replays. I learn more from watching when he's on than when Heinsohn's on, that's for sure.

[JohnnyTheBone]

Straight up, this is a game you gotta win.

Some of it's novelty and a different perspective, but I think you're right. He reminds me a bit of Bradford doing the Red Sox games a few times. His presentation was a bit goofy too at times, but he brought some good insight at times I wasn't used to getting. Same for Scal.

Bradford blows at broadcasting. The jury is still out on Mr. Scalabrine.

[Nomar813]

Dick Bavetta is horrifying in HD.

[JohnnyTheBone]

The Celtics are a very good and likable team, but the NBA in general cranks out a tedious, damn-near unwatchable product.

[MyDaughterLovesTomGordon]

Jeff Green is a terrible defender at the perimeter. That last Reddick three was all his fault.

[Hee-Seop's Fable]

Maybe so, but they both know their stuff and I'm happy to hear what them have to say. Substance gives them a bigger margin for error on the style side.

[Nomar813]

Finally some offensive boards and nobody can sink a layup.

[radsoxfan]

Ridiculously bad 4th foul call on Rondo there. Not close to a foul.

Cant lose to this joke of a Magic team, even if its on the road

[Hee-Seop's Fable]

Wow he's been around forever. From Wiki:

Richard T. "Dick" Bavetta (born December 10, 1939)^[3][5] is an American professional basketballreferee for the National Basketball Association (NBA). Since starting in 1975, he has never missed an assigned game. By the start of the 2006–07 NBA season, he had worked 2,164 regular season and 228 playoff games, including 24 NBA Finals games.^[1]He currently holds the league record for most officiated games.^[6] On December 29, 2011 he officiated his 2,500th consecutive game.

[ifmanis5]

Oh come on. Terrible end to the qtr.

[Blacken]

Why does this team play like assholes in the third quarter, every time?

[Nomar813]

Feel free to guard Nelson from time to time.

[MyDaughterLovesTomGordon]

This is becoming ... Distasteful.

[MyDaughterLovesTomGordon]

Green flailing in the post.

[Cerebus the Batboy]

Can we give some of Green's money to Barbosa?

[radsoxfan]

Jeff Green has to be removed from the game. Not only terrible on offense, but refusing to guard anyone on defense.

And hey Doc....Rondo has 4 fouls, not 6

[Hee-Seop's Fable]

Looks like they're going to keep hitting these threes, even if it is out of character. How about making it a little harder on them?

[radsoxfan]

Down 4 points on the road, 7 minutes left. Rondo, KG, and Pierce are all out of the game. WTF!!!

[JakeRae]

It is time to staple Green to the bench for the rest of this game.

[JohnnyTheBone]

Come on, Rondo. SCORE THE BUCKET!

[bball831]

Rondo is such an idiot.

[Nomar813]

Sometimes it's ok to just score, Rondo.

[JohnnyTheBone]

Brandon Bass straight up your ASS!

[Nomar813]

Heart attack. Thank fuck Pierce isn't broken.

[JohnnyTheBone]

TRAVELLING VIOLATION!

CLOSE THESE BITCHES OUT!

[MyDaughterLovesTomGordon]

Rondo has been magic since returning. That 4th foul changed the game for no reason.

[radsoxfan]

The amazing thing about Jeff Green's 20 minute, 1 point, 2 rebound, 1 assist, 0-9 FG stat line..... it doesn't begin to do justice to how poorly he played.

[bball831]

Terrible. This team is mediocre.

[Hee-Seop's Fable]

It's like Doc has been trying to make sure everyone gets the feel for what a trap game really is, whether it's necessary or not, and whether they like it or not.

[bball831]

Doc is great at calling plays out of timeouts. Last two were great.

[radsoxfan]

Gorman says chance for a 2 for 1....not really. Would need to shoot immediately on the inbound basically.

Just get a good shot, don't worry about the time

[Soxaholic]

Doc is great at calling plays out of timeouts. Last two were great.

Yup, it's his bread and butter. Here we go.

[Soxaholic]

Nice, C's are going to get the last shot.

Is it Pierce ISO time?

[MyDaughterLovesTomGordon]

Good shot for kg. just didn't go.

[JohnnyTheBone]

Dick Bavetta is horrifying in HD.

[bball831]

Nice last shot.
