I like Ray, but we would suffer much more without Paul or KG on the floor.

it's kind of harsh to say considering he's still a great player, but Allen is the worst out of the Big 3

Wow... Another blow, and without RA on the floor. Powe and Pruitt are too good to only get 3-5 minutes per game.

Pretty nice game..we outscored them 32-15 in the 3rd quarter! Rondo- 17pts 8ast 4reb- i thought he had a great game..nice drives, took shots, and nice passes..definetly improving today was a great performance tho still room for more agressiveness Pierce- 32pts 4reb 2ast- what can i say, he was on fire and pretty much helped put us away from the Bucks with many 3's in a row..great job Garnett- 15pts 7reb- Great defense by him, stats don't show how he kept the tempo on defense high..solid game from him Allen- 11pts 3reb.- Great job on Redd, held him to 7pts..don't think anyone else could've done that..missed some jumpers badly but he's coming along..great to see him shown signs of his former self Perk- 4pts 5reb.- seemed to move around fine without any sign of a big toe injury, nothing amazing from him tho.. Baby- 2pts 6reb- stats don't show how he was holding the rebounding down..solid job tho we've seen him play better House- 9pts 3reb- had an alright night, hit some nice shots but didn't get much time since Rondo was ballin' today Posey- good defense, helped keep that defense playing rough coming off that bench Powe- 7pts 4reb- I'm a Powe lover so i was extremely happy to see him giving it his all..You can always expect him to come out and play hard..nice block and moves Pruitt- 7pts 1ast- Pruitt looked very nice in the short minutes..smooth and fluid..i included that 1 assist because it was a beautiful bounce pass to house..Smooth shot i could get used to seeing..i mean who says we need a backup PG! Solid effort tonight but amazing job in the 2nd half like always at home..This team beat the "supposed" best team in the east and we crushed them once we picked it up without Ray..We just keep winning 19-2!!!!!!

One thing to remember about Pruitt, though, and this doesnt mean I dont think he is good, but this was garbage time. We have to rely on our consistent and proven players. But by no means should we not give them some play. Its great to get blow outs for just that reason. The experience these guys get in these situations in invaluable.

I wish there were more minutes in a basketball game so we could see Powe and Pruitt much more! Because you never know when Pruitt or Powe could start contributing big time to this team..maybe later on in the season or next season..

Well, we kinda alreayd know what Powe can do. We know he is hustle and can play, but Doc must have some reason for not giving him more PT. Pruitt just seems like he is gonna be good! His Dleague play was good and he has shown he can play at this level off the bench. I think he just has to pay his rookie dues more and maybe Doc has reasons there as well. We dont know what goes on in practices, so.

Where all my Greeniacs at!?? I was at work the 1st half - then I tuned for the third qtr and enjoyed it from the sofa. I did not log onto the computer cuz I was staring at it all day. Needless to say, the Celtics committment to defense up and down the lineup is certainly a joy to watch. I'd like to see how we stack up against the good teams and how we do on the year end West Coast trip. I believe this team will be very special by the time Spring oh-eight rolls around.
