Man, let's foul the whole Rocket's team for the rest of the day and we'll win. They're worse than Dwight collectively.

I hate hearing this crap about no one to run with Rondo.

Two years ago with Shaq, Perkins, Jermaine, at center it was partially true as KG/Ray/Pierce weren't exactly lightning fast.

But Bradley is as fast if not faster than Rondo.  Green, Lee, Sullinger, healthy KG (for a big) are all plenty fast enough to run in transition.  The problem now is Rondo just plays lazy and would rather rack up assists doing painstaking plays through a series of screens and cuts instead of just getting a layup by blitzing down the court and fastbreak.

I don't think KG or Sully are very good in transition lol

This defense/effort from Terry, Bradley, Lee, Green and Sullinger has been absolutely mindblowing. 

I hope I don't see any more complaining about Terry because his afford has been off the charts today, and his defense in the last few games has been absolutely outstanding.

Even against a far bigger (hight and weight) Harden Terry has done an amazing job and his hustle on that save earlier in the game was inspiring.

Green looks like he is finally awakening.

Lee has been outstanding

Bradley's defense has made Harden look like a 3rd string SG

Garnett and Bradley are both playing well for the starters. 

I love this team right now!!!!

Sully is slowly reaching major trade chip-to-untradable status.  And I love it!

i'm glad that you love this team right now because, evidently, our GM does not. he is as bad as the posters on CelticsBlog about constantly thinking, "Now, who can i trade next ?"

i also love the way the defense has been transformed since Bradley's return - i never thought he would make this much difference. the Celts are back to being the D-smothering team that has been their calling card since KG got here.

Lin almost died

The Collins-Asik matchup is priceless! The number of bricks might break a record.

It's so nice having big men (Sully) you can trust to pass the ball and make decisions.

[letsgoblue86]

Lin sucks.  Runs into someone and flops....wow what a player

[celticslove]

hope they make a all-star freethrow contest featuring asik and dj3000.lol

[Who]

Playing Sullinger 28-32 minutes a night off the bench might be a better option than starting him and giving him similar minutes.

[Redz]

Sully is giving the Celts a whole lot of exactly what they've needed for a long time now.

[ScottHow]

Playing Sullinger 28-32 minutes a night off the bench might be a better option than starting him and giving him similar minutes.

I have to agree, I like the current rotation.

Keep Bass happy too
