Anyone home?

I thought they'd get Zaza on a travel.

So far, the only Celtic I've seen playing his normal game is Stiemsma. He has singlehandedly been responsible for denying at least four Hawks scores—and maybe more.

Hi Sam and Bob,

Slow start for Celtics.
Tough stretch for them.

Hi Guys,

So I got here in time to see Rondo take a bad shot, Pierce charging and Dooley coming into the game.

Maybe I should exit and try it again!

I'm glad Smith and the rest of the Hawks have shown a tendency to succumb to less probable shots.

Hi TJ. Nice to see you (you know what I mean).

I've been following all the threads, just haven't had anything to add.
Very little Lakers talk around here anymore.

Year after year the Hawks remind me of a good team that has some decent parts but are never really contenders.

Josh Smith is the only player I like on their team and he often doesn't play up to his potential.

The Celts are uncharacteristically getting a lot of the long rebounds off the defensive boards.

A couple things that I like seeing tonight: good defense and 3 or 4 Celtics around the basket fighting for defensive rebounds.

Dickerson just reiterated that Doc and Danny are confidence of adding at least one big by Friday. They're going for bulk. At the sound of that, my mind immediately went to Gazurak, and Mike mentioned him too as a high energy guy.

At least JO has ended the agony and has finally decided on surgery.

Anybody interested in J.J. Hickson?
