RAY! I liked how the game started out so far. We gotta prevent them from scoring, though.

KG needs to keep up this level of aggression. I agree with JVG, Celtics need to post him every time down. Love how Ray's playing. Like our D so far.

Hate to admit it but Gasol is playing well.

Impose Your Will Celtics !!

i see the same weaknesses in this purple bunch that i saw in 1984 - keep going inside and pound them into dust on the boards.

Rondo got some vertical.

If Rondo had hammered that dunk home....the roof might have came off the Garden

Rondo with his best Dwight Howard impersonation, except he made his free throws.
"Take this down," said O'Neal. "My name is Shaquille O'Neal and Paul Pierce is the (expletive) truth. Quote me on that and don't take nothing out. I knew he could play, but I didn't know he could play like this. Paul Pierce is the truth."

Good quarter, great to finally be playing basketball again.  Would've been something special if KG had managed to throw that alley oop down.

Didn't like the lineup to close the quarter. Didn't like that 7-0 Lakers run either.
Wish KG could have dunked that alley oop (seem like the past was a little to far to me). Nice block by Perkins.

Pretty good quarter. Only if Rondo dunked that on Sasha and KG threw down that alley-oop. The place would've exploded.

Disappointed to see that Sam is coming in instead of House.  I think House would bring much more than this point, since Farmer isn't exactly known for his D.
