Boston Celtics vs Orlando Magic Series

[ausbacker]

In all fairness, Howard catches more elbows than anybody in the NBA. That comes with the position he plays.

Disagree. There's no reason for him to be elbowing people in the face on a regular basis. Howard gets away with it and the officials let it happen.

I'm still coming to terms with why he's endorsed himself as superman. He can't do anything but rebound, lay up and slam dunk. Superman would atleast have a jump shot

Good to see the NBA rescind the technicals on Perkins. Hopefully they caution that crew as it was a thoroughly disgraceful performance.

Boston to close it out in 6 and Perkins to play a ripper.

If the Suns can win tonight I believe we'll be playing them in the finals.

Damn, what a ending.

Artest was the only reason the Suns had a chance at the end, way to redeem himself there.

You can disagree all you want. It's pretty much a fact that Howard is on the receiving end of more elbows than just about anybody in the NBA.

I don't doubt you Kontra ... I just have a problem that Howard's elbows are flying at people's heads.

Magic's Barnes: Pressure is on Celtics - Celtics Blog - Boston.com

When asked about the Celtics potentially targeting Dwight Howard for his physical play, "If Dwight gets taken out, one of their guys will get taken out. Hopefully it doesn't get to that but it's going to be a physical game."

Oh, believe me. I have a problem with that too. But I'm an eye for an eye type of guy.

 

[Disco Volante]

Prediction: Celtics by 10+ tonight.

 

[ausbacker]

Good to see the Celtics have started off playing dumb basketball again. FFS Howard is useless when you take him away in the paint so what do the Celtics do? Give him the paint and early dunks.

 

[Disco Volante]

Great first quarter, Rondo looking great.

Nate Robinson is going off on the Magic both offensively and defensively. Come on little fella.. keep up that great work.

 

[Disco Volante]

Love it, so much energy.

Nate is on FIRE.

Going for a dunk on Howard! Loving this.

Nervous about the ned of the 2nd qtr. WOuld rather have kept the lead>20 and buried these guys.

Glad to see Howard with 3 fouls.

 

[Pessimistic Pete]

They took out Robinson and there went the the 20+ lead....

It made absolutely no sense to pull a guy clearly on fire and allow the Magic back in with a sniff. Poor coaching by Doc Rivers there.

 

[bigcountry75]

THey need more Robinson in my opinion.....

Oh and I loved KG trying to break Howards arm when he kept hand checking him.....

Anybody else get a strange pleasure seeing Ray Allen's mother's crazy look in her eyes after he sinks a tre? She's got that crazy killer instinct look about her

I get the same feeling about Ray, he always has that awesome cool/calm/collected snarl on his face.

Glad to see the Celtics defense has stepped up to the play in game 6. The Magic simply haven't been able to maintain the intensity they had in game 5 and their pick and roll diagonal game has collapsed. Idiots have a far more athletic side than Boston and they've just walked it up the floor tonight reverting to the first three games.

Very good performance after a shaky first 5 minutes tonight. Now to hopefully close it out and hope that Phoenix can force a game 7 to get some much needed rest.
