LOL at the fan with the Red Sox fan getting kicked out. That deserves a Tommy Point in my opinion.
The Celtics seem to be having the same old issues creep up on them..... Turnovers.
Gamecenters are not working tonight. But in reading over your accounts of the game and from fans of other messageboards...... it is turnovers.
Turnovers are caused by poor concentration mainly. Now, why are the Celtics having trouble concentrating?

Ouch! That hurts!
Sounds like K-Mart is taking us to the woodshed, again.......
Good night, see You Wednesday where I hope we can get well with Charlotte.
The boys in the Celticblog website will love this line - Perkins 5 mins 2-2 4pts, 5 rebs and 0 fouls.
And why is Raef only getting 8 minutes? Is Blounts 16 point, 3 rebs, and 1 blk making that much of a difference?
I would have a lot more to say, but Channel 785 keeps giving me the black screen.
