Celts inbound. Tony allen back in. Travel called on Gomes. Deng takes it to the basket and slams it. They are getting inside way too easy. Perk comes in for Raef. Good move. Celts turn it over. Deng misses along the baseline and PP rebounds. PP misses a 3. Bulls rebound. Hinrich hits a jumper. Perk backs into the lane and hits an open West for a 3. Allen forces a turnover out of bounds. West in the lane and misses a layup and rebound goes out of bounds off Celts. Nociani rims out a 3 and Perk rebounds. West hits a jumper. Hinrich misses at the SC. PP hits a half court shot at the buzzer. Score at the end of 3 is Boston 78 and Chicago 68. Just 12 more minutes and if we can keep our focus and not let them rattle us we can win this!!!! But we have to keep the defense up and Doc needs to leave Perk in and we have to hit our shots.

PP is fouled as he drives along the side. Bulls had a foul to give. 15.7 to go. PP misses a deep 3. West rebounds in traffic and hits a jumper. hinrich is fouled on the inbounds pass. 5.1 left. Greene in the game. hinrich hits both FTs. PP misses at the buzzer and Chicago wins 101-97.
Doc gave this one away by taking Perk out and going small when Raef fouled out. We went small and they kept their big guys in and were able to get inside. I really want another coach next year.
Pierce was trying to take it over down the stretch and took bad shots and tried taking it in against a triple team and shot blocker. We got away from finding the open man and were trying to do too much individually and the Bulls were right there to stop us. Tough loss. That should just about do it for our playoff hopes now. Gonna go and drink some green koolaid.

I can't see Doc being the coach of this team for next 2 seasons. I expect his services will be revoked soon enough.
Perk should've been playing more 14 rebs 5 blks only 23 mins!?!?!? That's got to be a joke.
It's time to see if G.Green and the other young players can do with big minutes.

I'm starting to think the same way JHVOS. Now is the time to see the kids. What do we have to lose? If nothing else, we build trade value in a young player.

Some passing thoughts after seeing the last half:
1. I think this team has underachieved even considering the injuries. Don't think Doc has gotten the maximum out of the talent he has. Like today: In 4th, ball movement sort of stopped and became swinging around the perimeter then into PP on the low post, FROM WHERE I DON'T THINK HE MADE A SHOT, but got several blocked and turned several over.
2. Team did not match up against Chicago's small lineup which "outquicked" the Cs at 3 positions and made layup after layup. West is not fast enough to keep up with KH. Cs might h ave won this game if still had Banks, who could have shut some of that crap down.
3. Perkins looked more mobile than I had remembered him.
4. A difference between PP and AW is that AW would have shimmied all over the place after hitting the mid-court 3 at the buzzer.
5. I saw really no portion of the offense which really consisted of drive/slash to the buckeet which produced points.
6. IMHO Perk needs to be told to take the ball up strong for a dunk, rather than trying a 3-foot hook shot in traffice after getting a r ebound.
