Knicks (11-15) at Celtics (25-2) 12/21

[Fafnir]

Ugh, terrible 2nd quarter.

[illantari]

Worst. Call. Ever.

OK, maybe not ever.  But it was pretty bad.

[Fafnir]

How did 23 point lead go to 8?

They made ten three pointers. Nate Robinson was 5-5 with 4 3s and went to the line several times. We're getting sucked into the pace and giving them open 3s. We're still getting too many easy points right for them to pull ahead but we need to play better D.

[RebusRankin]

Thanks for the explanation of how it went from 23 to 8. The Knicks seem to do that to teams.

Starters build a lead, bench comes in, blows the lead, bench goes out, starters rebuild the lead, bench come back in, blow part of the lead, Celtics win.

Stupid trend that's set to continue.

58 points in one half to give up against the Knicks is poor.

Also, we have 10 turnovers at
the half. That's just too many.
The Knicks have just seven.

That is the rest of the story. We turned it over too much in the second quarter. Trying to get those dunks a bit too much.

[Fafnir]

We're not rotating well enough. They've just got more energy than us right now.

[RebusRankin]

Come on its the Knicks. Wake up.

[Nerf DPOY]

Al Harrington has an odd head. It's like an aerodynamically built bike helmet with all the grooves in it.

[ACF]

I hate Q-Rich, especially when
he's having a game like tonight.
24 pts in 20 mins 

[Fafnir]

Rondo is taking this quarter over.

[Celtic]

Wow no one on the Knicks wants to challenge Rondo.

[ACF]

This is more like it!

[ACF]

Looks like it's Bad Tony that's
showed up to play tonight. Hmm...
