Celtics big men looking very shaky here with KG on the bench.

Bass has sucked. Sullinger has been quiet. Collins has done nothing. A serious lack of contributions from the Celtics supporting bigs.

I can't wait for KG to get back on the floor ... who hasn't been great himself.

Quick crossover by Courtney Lee to beat his defender to the rim for the layup. Nice.

Don't like those transition 3s from the top from Lee... he should be strictly from the corner.

Nice putting the ball on the floor in the next possession.

We need to involve Terry more with the corner 3s, he's been hitting them well. Such a huge weapon for us, rarely used.

We're very very small right now...

Oh ho ho, that was a nasty block by Drummond on Rondo's runner. Right out of mid-air.

What's up with Pierce? C's will be fortunate to get out of the first round with this Pierce.

Should've passed to Green, open around the free-throw line.

Missed free throws have really killed us these past 3 games.

PG - Rondo vs W.Bynum
SG - Terry vs R.Stuckey
SF - C.Lee vs Tayshaun
PF - J.Green vs Drummond / Monroe
C  - Sully vs Monroe / Drummond

Drummond isn't a threat to score in the post so I am fine with Green defending him. Drummond would be a major threat on the offensive glass though. Green weak at boxing out.

Monroe is a good shot-creator though. He'd be able to punish Green in the post. Drummond is the lesser threat for Green to cover.

Tayshaun has a nice post up advantage against Courtney Lee if Detroit chooses to exploit. They should. It's their best offensive matchup right now.

Edit: Ah, Pierce is there now. Better. He should defend Drummond. Leave Sully on Monroe. Green is on Tayshaun to take that away. Much better lineup.

Another Rondo dud..8 TO and 3 for 13 from the field. Shouldn't the leader of the team not allow us to lose two game to the Pistons

Hacking Drummond with a small unit is very risky.

I hate these hack-a-whoever plays. They should be outlawed.

Free throws + possession. Or get to choose which player you want to take the free throws so you can put a high percentage shooter in there to punish this.

Do they have wider baskets in Waltham??
The saddest part is Drummond hitting FT's and Celtics jacking up them..
The Celtic in me.
