Celtics/Lakers Game Two

[scout]

Big game tonight, as the Celtics will take a commanding two game lead with a win.
Will Kobe shoot lights out and take the split back to L.A.? Will Odom show up, or Gasol show any toughness?
On the Celtics side, how are Pierce's knee and Perkins's ankle?
What we should see tonight, better defense by the Celtics in the first half, stopping the pick and rolls. Rajon will continue to play good ball equaling anything Fisher does. Do one of the Celtics have a breakout game tonight? My hunch is Ray Allan will light it up, even tho he has a tough job of having to guard Kobe. The key to this game will be rebounds and foul trouble, which should give Boston the edge.

I am going with the Patriots strategy recommended by a few idiots
in the main forum. I want them to lose so they can win 3 more ... NOT ....

If the Celtics start the game with Garnett at Center
and Posey and Pierce at forward the Lakers will be talking to themselves ...

 

[patriotspride]

it would be huge if they pull game two out with a win. for the team and for my health. they must win or ill have a blow out.

Wait I haven't been paying attention the past few days. I know Pierce is ready to go but what about Perk? Who is in his place, PJ Brown I assume? Or Leon?

Perk's been out moving around. They said he didn't do any lateral work and while he did dunk, it didn't have his usual authority. He says it feels about 80%.

I'd like to see more time from Powe and Davis.

Definitely Powe. PJ is great too but yeah I'd like to see some more time for Powe, he is very strong and draws a ton of fouls. He'd be very good against those softy Lakers.

Wow .. Perk upgraded himself 20%. On the offensive end I think Perk would be fine ... getting back on D will be his problem and with the running Lakers Perk would have to be at least 95% to get the job done.

You gotta love a guy who goes from 60 to 80% in a day.

Just hit it with freeze spray and go!

Perk is starting apparently.

Wish Ray could pass...

 

[Kdo5]

Damn Pau just dunked right over KG. 15-12 Lakers. Defense needs to tighten up.

 

[Kdo5]

Kobe with two fouls, nice.......

Close game right now. A little too much turnovers though.

Too many cutesy passes being attempted, and nobody is crashing the offensive boards...we miss Perk.

 

[Kdo5]

Leon comes in, takes a charge and draws a foul on the other end. I love this guy.

 

[Kdo5]

Down 1 or 2 at the end of the 1st. Leon misses two foul shots...cant have that.

missed foul shots drives me crazy.

CASSELL COMES IN AND THROWS UP AN AWFUL BRICK. WHAT ELSE IS NEW.

At least he stripped the ball afterwards.

 

[Kdo5]

Powe has drawn three fouls already. Gotta love it.

MAKE IT FOUR!

PIERCE FOR THREEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE.

Great Bench play from Powe, Posey and PJ. Even Cassell has only bricked one shot. Forget Perk, Powe/PJ/KG need to be our big guys on the court tonight. Let Perk heal.
