Little Kobe on fire ...

[vinnie]

One of these teams is going to be in the playoffs.  . Although Miami is missing two starters.

[Yoki_IsTheName]

This is a resilient bunch, I tell you. Danny maybe tanking the season, but these guys aren't. Love watching them fight.

[SHAQATTACK]

I can't believe it. Marcus Smart is leading all players in the game in assists.  Never thought that would happen

Funny you say that because the Heat announcers were actually complementing the C's on how much more ball movement they have since the Rondo trade.

And the Heat announcers would know this because? My guess is they never see the Celrics.

Well, Eric Reid, their play by play guy was talking about how he spoke to Gorman at length before the game, and how they used to do Big East games together years ago. Then the conversation switched to Rondo and how he has a knack for holding the ball and trying to wait until he made a pass that led directly to a FG. So either he knows this from watching C's games or from Gorman directly. I don't think it's any secret that announcers tell each other things that would help them discuss the other team on air.

So with all the ball movement, why are they 7-15 without Rondo?

And with an easier schedule than the Rondo period.

Uh, talent? It's about the same record wise, no?

Yep. Nothing better than being stuck in no man's land.

9-14 versus 7-15. You would think with the great ball movement the record would have improved.

You have to love the D these guys are playing now.
