The Celtics are up by 17 points but hopefully they won't let up because the Knicks have come back from double digit deficits to win 2 of their last 4 games.

Great job by Perk today..Celtics went back to what they did in the opening weeks in finding the open man..Rondo looked great though i saw him wince/limp a bit at some points..Pierce was having a great game(7 ast) but too bad he got ejected..Garnett helped calm the team down and Powe had another solid night..and Big Baby dunked the ball!..

Another solid win judging by the quick scan of the NBA play-by-play. Celtics beat the Knicks going away in this one. The Knicks have beaten up on some bottom feeders lately and caught Washington with poor energy after their weekend sweep of Boston. I guess with most teams having played 40 games..... I'll give a team by team review and see who is meeting expectations and who is coming up short and preview the second half of the season. Celtics are at 33 and 6 and after their bad week, have had three excellent wins in a row. I expect this team to stay on top of the EC standings the rest of the regular season. This is a remarkable turnaround from our low point May 22, 2007 when we got screwed in the lottery.
