Game time... Delonte is supposed to back up at PG again. Utah has been out rebounding their opponents by over 11 rebounds per game. We really need to hit the boards tonight and show some hustle... If we come out flat like we did the other night, the Jazz will bury us.

Boozer, Okur, Kirilenko. Eep. C's are going to really have to hustle on the boards for sure. If the C's are going to play up tempo, this game would be a good game to do that.

Doc said that we are really an early offense game rather than a fast break team. Doc is still excited about Rondo but he has to work on things and some games we may get into an up and down style and they will need him. Telfair, Pierce, Theo, Gomes and Wally starting again for the Celtics.

Telfair is on his way to the hospital because of shortness of breath. I guess it wasn't a foul by Perk because Celtics inbound . Delonte's 3 is short. Jazz rebound. Scal with a great block. Wally misses a jumper. Harpring rebounds.

The defensive energy tonight is far better than what I have seen this year. Scalabrine is very agressive at the back end and the rest of the guys are picking up. Nice situational leadership by Scal.

Gomes misses the first and hits the second. Okur hits a jumper. Rondo pulls up and hits a jumper. AK lays it in. Wally with a good pass inside to Gomes who lays it in. Gomes called for a foul. Time out with Utah up 49-48 and 1:39 left in the second. We are playing much better and rebounding well, but we still can't get any stops. Jazz are shooting 59% and seem to score at will. We have to tighten up our defense and get some stops.
