Spurs @ Knicks Feb. 8 - Game Blog

we need to rebound more against Celtics. That's why they are struggling against MN. Offensive rbds -15? 4 OR from Al Jeff

Celtics without KG=average yet compe ive team. As much as I would love for KG to play, sit his ass out till he his truly good to go. This team can manage with Pierce and Allen and a very underrated supporting cast. This stretch has shown Boston is more than the big 3. Either way KG or no KG they will play the Spurs tough at home.

I was thinking the same thing.

its definately a dynamic in the NBA. Boston will be the most anticipated matchup for SA, lets do it.

PS- thanks to everyone that helped me catch up on what i missed the last ten days

We have good bench players but they cant replace the rebounding, versatility, and scoring that KG brings. Yes I say this is Pierces team but the Celtics will do nothing in the playoffs if our big 3 arent healthy. We arent losing every game or playing with no heart due to him being out regardless of where we go. That makes me happy to see them have that at ude. the Celtics havent been blown out once this season. Every game they lost was compe ive.

You know Garnett will play Sunday if he's close to ready.

Him and TD are arch nemsisisz.

And Timmy will always be the one that got away to Boston fans.

Should be a great game. I know Boston wants it more.

Spurs shot 3G 50%, win.

Once again....a tale of 2 halves. It's a real concern, but wow what an amazing game that was tonight. The Spurs' effort, iron will and execution after halftime was championship caliber all the way.

The second half was the epitome of "pounding the rock"

He isn't from New York?

As did the Spurs. That is one team I literally cant hate. I know they had the #1 pick and got Duncan while we got Billups (who sucked at the time) and that piece of Ron Mercer but that is what the lottery is about... probability but unpredictable. They are too god damn classy especially Pop. I wanted Duncan sooo bad. I loved watching him in college and I knew especially after his first year, he was going to turn that franchise around. I would walk around downtown Boston wearing all Giants gear (and risk getting my ass beat) if it meant Duncan being a Celt.

That's why I want a Spurs/Celtics final. The interest would be huge, one of the most revered franchices against the new dynasty. And with KG it would be at the least an extremely hard fought affair.

I've seen him play live a few times and I don't really care for his bravado, but the man is passionate.

I wonder how he would be if you told him he only needed to win 4 games to be a world Champion. He would work himself into such a frenzy, and it seems his teamates in Boston respond well to that.
