Q with another 3:00 min update - The Celtics backups are hanging evenly with Charlotte. The game has a defensive texture right now. Perkins has 3 fouls but Scrubbabrine is doing yeoman work. The fight continues.

Q at the 6:00 min mark. The Charlotte guards move without the ball and get lots of nice scoring looks. Our defensive rotations stink. Poor energy is precisely the culprit. There is no excuse for this. Tony Allen has lost his confidence - two dribbling violations and no help on defense. No passion, no urgency = no victories and we are in the soft part of the schedule.

Theo Ratliffe is making a difference on the back end resulting in two fast break opportunities. What was that 2nd call?

Rondo hasn't played yet. They haven't said anything about his being injured, but Delonte came in as the PG when Telfair was out.

I saw the Pistons game, and rondo sure looked like a much better player, on e who could be a consistent differance maker in games. I really liked what he brought, much morer than Bassy.

Celtics inbound on the side. 12.6 on the clock. West misses a 3. Morrison gets the rebound and hits a long jumper at the buzzer. Cats up 49-45 at the half.
I don't know why Rondo isn't playing. They showed him in uniform on the bench but West has been coming in at the Point instead. We are still turning the ball over way too much. And it is the vets who are doing it...Wally with 3, Pierce with 5 and Tony with 3.

That exchange hurt - Pierce dribbles into traffic after missing West in the corner and Morrision scores off the turnover and transition basket. West misses a good look 3 and Morrison hits the buzzer beater to put us in a 4 point halftim deficit.
Overall, the energy level is very poor and that is why all the bad things are happening to us. Unless the team can pick up there intensity level, the team will continue to lose. I don't have any answers for the low performance at this point except they have no confidence in each other. The Celtics continue to stink it up out there.
