at [glow=green,2,300] Boston Celtics (29-40) @ Cleveland Cavaliers (39-29)
Friday, March 24, 2006 Time: 4:30pm PT, 7:30pm ET TV: FSOhio, FSNE,NBALP Team 4 Radio: WTAM 1100, WRKO 680 AM Location: Quicken Loans Arena, Cleveland, Ohio[/glow] Key Matchup vs Keys to the Game The Celtics need to come out strong from the opening tip and be aggressive on both offense and defense. We can't spot this team a big lead and expect to come back against them. The whole team needs to step up. They can't just depend on Pierce to do it all in that he is pretty beat up right now. Our bench needs to come through for us tonight. Defense is going to be a key.

You Greeniacs are the best at feeding our hungry Celt mouthes. Our game thread is the best bar-none! ! !
Point to Q for slapping a point on S12 and for your solid updates Ron... ;D
I have a baseball fantasy draft at the same time of the game. Be checking in as soon as it's done or between picks.

YUK! Have to listen to the Cleveland announcers tonight. I don't know if I can handle all the Lebron worship I am going to have to be subjected to. Getting sickening already after just 30 seconds of the broadcast. Starters are Raef, Wally, Gomes, Pierce, and West. No surprises there. James, Gooden, Z, Snow, and Murray for the Cavs. Game time .... here we go!!!
