Celtics (34-8) at Heat (9-33) 1/29

Yes that is because Blount is the worst interior defender of all time.

3 or 4 years from now replace Scal in the starting lineup with a good PF and we have a lineup of Rondo, TA, Pierce, x, and Perk with Powe and whoever else we can bring in off the bench.

The Heat are just awful! We essentially have the same team on the floor as last year and they cant compete. Granted Shaq is out, but he is waaaay past it at this point and I doubt he'd make a difference.

[runrondo]

Rondo, why oh why can't you play like this when everyone is in the lineup? Imagine how deadly our offense would be and all the open looks for Ray, KG down low, and Pierce..Rondo's gotta realize he can take over games too even when the Big 3 is in..If Rondo can do what he's doing in this game somewhat consistently then our team would be sooo much better and have such a crazy offense..

[CelticsLoyalist]

Absolutely amazing game for the C's. This really solidifies how good this team is or how bad the Heat are, hehe. Nah this team really has great D and has players than can step up in an injury situation. I dont think this is something that we can maintain over a season, but its good to know they can for a few games. Rondo, Allen, and Powe are what we know they are. Its just good to see them finally getting the chance to show it.

[The Eye of the Q is upon you!]

Rondo and Powe were the stars of the 1st half. I think Pierce had maybe 4 points. The entire Miami team looks like they have quit for the season. Dorell Wright brought a little energy for the heat in the last two minutes. Its all about effort, Bahby!!
