I enjoyed the win. Very good considering they played last nite and were on the road. Even a blind squirrel finds a nut. Doc is the blind squirrel.

i'm exited to see Al play 39 minutes and take 19 shots. If he gets that kind of output every night he is a lock for 18 and 10. Unfortunately the celtics have a coach who encourages small ball and is only playing Jefferson that many minutes because everyone else is hurt. It is also nice to see Gerald Green play 29 minutes tonight although i felt he should have been out there at the end of the fourth quarter to give Pierce and Jefferson another scoring option and open up the floor. Then again Doc Rivers is coaching this team and he always finds a way to screw up the game.

Nice break-out game by Al. And Green's 20+ game earlier in the week is a welcome sign as well. Hopefully, these performances can start happening on a more regular basis, and we will keep these two and not trade either one for AI.

I'm not sure but I think fair is fair. If you were from another planet you might have thought the refs only slightly dislike the Cs unlike every other game they play where you could swear the other team paid them off. First of all there was that make up call in the 3rd quarter where Delonte was mugged but Telfair got the foul. Then there was that jump ball at the very end.
PP played aweful again but did other good things.
if you didn't know better you'd think Doc was a real live NBA mediocre coach. He sat his star who wasn't playing well instead of giving him 45 mins. he didn't tell anyone to stop passing to Al. He let some young guys play.
If they did this every nite I could live with it. I thought for sure they'd lose, possibly in OT and I was thinking to myself "I'm way happier with this loss than several of their wins"
