Celtics (2-1) at Rockets (3-0) 11/4

so much for trading away Ray Allen after one bad game (like i said, i didn't think anyone could be worse than Tennessee football fans about overreacting) ...... Celts fans are in a league all their own.

i did not, however, like the extended minutes that tonite's win required of the starters along with the minimal minutes given to the limited bench we now all of the sudden seem to have - of course, that tends to happen when you don't do what is neccessary to keep your most valuable bench player and then try to replace him with your very athletic shooting guard who plays hard but has a limited basketball IQ.

Can we possibly ever move on from the Posey discussion? Argh.

We can all breathe now.  That comeback Houston made really bothered me, but we recovered and that was a nice road win.  Ray shouldn't be traded, Perk is a good NBA center, life is once again good in CelticLand, until the next game anyways.

I could only follow the game on Gamecast, but rumor has it the refs made some questionable calls tonight.  That's not like NBA officials to have off nights like that...

this was no different than last year in close games against contending teams, you keep your best in when its close....the rockets kept it close throughout (except for that trading of runs in the second) you don't put in a bench unit their against their starters to lose the game for you.
