Miami inbounds on the side. Posey on Wade. Heat go for the last shot and Wade misses and Posey rebounds. There was .1 left when Posey was fouled on the rebound but the refs confer and call game. Celtics win 92-91 in a thriller

Well we got out of jail tonight with a terrible 4th quarter played. THe Celtics did execute fairly well in the last two minutes after Miami tied it at 86 and again at 90. Rondo hit a big shot in there. Ray Allen had his problems but I think Doc put in Posey and he was a difference maker defending Wade. Tough win for the C's. Miami is obviously not going to stay down this whole season.

Tough win. i thought Rondo played his best game of the young season. Paul with a great play at the end of the game.

Wades return will help Miami, but most of this 4th quarter isnt owed to Wades return or Miami beating us as much as we failed to seal the deal. We really played horrible except for the last 2-3 minutes. When we let Miami in on a 20-4 run, it was very disappointing. Looks like the Magic will break our streak. Hope not. But...reality check!

Miami has a way of makign teams play ugly. That is just the way they play. They are a tough team. I was expecting a tough game. We need to play smarter, but Miami is tough. Nothing to hold our heads down about.

Way to pull out the win. Though, I am bit concerned the '3' are playing big minutes every game.

i think right now we want to keep the streak going as long as possible. Once we lose a game I think we can rest guys. Also if we are blowing teams out that is going to play well into how rested these guys are. But right now I think we concentrate on the streak and try to keep it going as long as possible. I'm honestly not concerned at all about how many minutes these guys are getting right now. It's a long season and we are amidst a winning streak and are trying to keep it alive for now.

Part of the minutes may also be injuries to the bench and wanting to develop chemistry. With Posey playing well tonight, and House hopefully on the mend, it will be easier to rest G-P-A going forward.
