According to the AP...
http://www.bostonherald.com/sports/basketball/celtics/view/2009_04_12_Cavaliers_clobber_Celtics_107-76/"Paul Pierce [stats] scored 14 and Glen Davis 12 for the Celtics, who were without Kevin Garnett and Leon Powe —
not that they might have made a difference"
I understand that the Cavs were rolling today and we were definitely not, especially after that start. But the Associated Press definitely seems a little biased. So the heart and soul of the Celtics wouldn't have made any difference in the game today? I'm not saying we would have necessarily won or anything, but really? Leon scored what, 21 pts last time we played them?
Anyways, just an awful game, lets hope that we don't have too many Sunday afternoon games during the playoffs, it seems that we just can't get going until a ways into the game.
And by the way, I've stated this before on this message board, but Van Gundy, Breen and Jackson, I HATE when they do Celtics games. I know we were getting blown out, but how bout focusing on talking about topics relevant to the the game for atleast most of the game instead of random NBA talk.
I love how the Celtics are on a 14-0 row in the 2nd quarter, I believe they didn't even mention anything about the run until it hit 14, instead they were on some other topic such as if Scottie Pippen is a hall of famer or not. How do some people really like these guys if they don't even stick to talking about the game. I know it can be hard when its a blowout, but they do the same thing even when it isn't a blowout. I'd almost rather watch the game on Mute then hear them. And for whatever reason they keep getting Celtics games.
I also love how they never give the Celtics any credit either. Whenever they are commentating a Celtics game, if the Celtics are playing really well they don't give them any credit, its how the other team is having an off day that day. Today, which I know we were totally out played, its about how great the Cavs are playing and not about how the Celtics are having a bad game.
Sorry, a little ranting before heading to bed. I just am hoping we're 100% going into the playoffs.
Go C's
