Magic @ Celts game 4 thread

[LnGrrrR]

Don't get defensive, Mo. So what, so what you lost at home in a close out game? Don't let Luva get to you like this.

At home though, Mo?

tee, hee.

Is it really surprising? Celt's worst game in the Cavs series was at home, and we lost to the Heat at home. I don't see why anyone's surprised, really.

The Magic needed OT to beat us... no way will they take the next three if Rondo plays even slightly better.

Looks like Matt Barnes' back is getting stronger the way he's been battling for looseballs as the playoffs has gone on. Those extra possessions were key in stemming some of the runs by Boston and allowing Orlando to put together better halfcourt plays after gaffing initially.

[LnGrrrR]

My ass, they played like . You got beat by two players in a closeout game on your own floor. Carter, Lewis, Peaches, and all of those scrubs sucked. You guys just couldn't get it done. We closed them out on their floor last year, and that old stiff Russell had to hand Kobe the trophy named after him, while PJ sported that cap that one upped ol Red. I smoked a cigar to that one buddy. Did you see Bill's face? He just slithered away like the snake he is.

I seem to remember a team the year before closing out a series on their home floor...

[LnGrrrR]

Though still a long shot... what if Orlando comes back and wins this series.

Boston Bruins and Celts lose a series in the same year after leading 3-0. WoW!

That would crush boston fans, no doubt. But it's not going to happen, anymore than the Miami Heat were 'dangerous' after Wade went off in Game 4.

[LnGrrrR]

That's ancient news, son. As MJ said, you guys were lucky.

Lucky? That's some weak right there. Because Bynum was injured? , Bynum's injured on every day ending with a Y.

MJ thought he could play baseball. He was wrong about that, too.

[tlongII]

lol at Laker fans talking trash. You boys got yer own issues to worry about at the moment.

[Giuseppe]

Things got a tad bit interesting. Not worried or even upset. If we drop the next 2, then ill start to be concerned. Orlando showed some pride tonight. Gotta give them props for not quitting.

Daddy-O, if there are two charters returning to Boston after Game 5 you'll be tremblin' in your panties.

[LnGrrrR]

And you're going to lose to us at home, that's if you get past the lowly Magic. We're already waiting.

I think you should check the series. We're up 3-1, you're up 2-1. Don't you have to take care of Phoenix tomorrow?

I guess it doesn't matter though that Bynum can't figure out where to go against a zone, if he only is going to play 8 minutes.

The loss to the Heat was on the road.

We'll see about the rest my friend.

Ah , my bad. I'm forgetful on long days. Anyways, we play better on the road this year, for some weird reason. I'm not worried yet. Orlando wins the next two games, I'll worry.

Ln, finally gettin' his on.

And it only took losing at home in a close out game up 3-0 to prompt it.

WOOF, WOOF!

Meh, I've gaffed on stuff like that myself, no worries. Orlando has a tall task against them, and the way they shriveled up in Game 3 would make me nervous in terms of seeing them come back to Boston, but maybe things are beginning to turn around.

I can understand your confidence, your team is still in full control and has outplayed the Magic for much of the series. I just hope the games are of the calibur of this one moving forward at least.

[Jacob1983]

I would love to see the Magic come back and win this series. I know it's a huge longshot and has never happened in NBA history but the Bruins choked a 3-0 lead on the same floor that the Celtics play on so it's possible.

[LnGrrrR]

WOOF, WOOF!

Technically, they earned it after the Cavs series, and backed it up by going 3-0.

What kind of fan would I be if I didn't back my boys in green up when they have an off night?

I mean, damn, Laka sucks Kobe's whether he's 13 for 20 with 30 pts, or he's 9 for 27 with 20 pts.

[DazedAndConfused]

I wouldn't count the Magic out.

The Celtics are an old team and it is definitely not in their interest to prolong the series any longer. Pierce and Garnett were totally gassed at the end.

I'm predicting Celtics in 6, but I would not be surprised if the Magic can push this to a 7 game series.

...and it isn't the Blazers!

The SUNS HAVE CURLED UP IN THE "please don't hit me again position." i;M ON SOME LIQUOR, SO i DONT GIVE A ABOUT MY TYPING.

Getting on some of that good Pakistani , huh?

Careful, Luva:

ISLAMABAD - At least 12 people died after drinking locally brewed liquor apparently tainted with lethal chemicals in Pakistan’s eastern province of Punjab, a news report said Monday.

I'll be hitting some Bailey's and Guinness when the C's close out the Magic. You better find a way to stop Am'a'r'e* next game.

No way this goes more than 6 games. The C's showed their age, which is why they need to lay it all out next game and close it out. They missed a few shots they usually make, and Rondo rushed some stuff. I trust Doc to make some adjustments, and Perkins to play better against Dwight.

[LnGrrrR]

If you like Bailey's, you'll love Sangster's Jamaica Rum Cream Liqueur. is like liquid gold. Amare is toast. They zoned to keep from further embarrassment.

Thanks for the suggestion, I'll check it out. I'm a pussy drinker; I like white russians and girly like that.

I gotta say, I'll be surprised if you don't close it out in 6 or less. Amare was pulling some sick moves, but I'm "questioning his motivation/dedication". If he's pissed about that, too bad.

They need to come up with better defense against those staggered screens they were setting for Nelson. Other than that it's just about Rondo playing more aggressively. Something was bothering him tonight.

[Venti Quattro]

Except the 8 dimes, Rondo was pathetic tonight.

[picc84]

Who influenced this game more....Vince Carter or Shuttlesworth moms?

[mogrovejo]

Go drink your lassi, paki.
