Well you have to start a win streak somewhere!

Interesting Stat going into this game for the Celtics.

Record: 6-0 Last 7 Games

Here are some alarming numbers:
-- The Celtics are 73 for 174 from the 3-point line in their nine victories (42 percent)
-- The Celtics are 10 for 64 from the 3-point line in their four losses (16 percent).

Perkins leads NBA in Offensive fouls
Also leads the team in Tech Fouls

Bill Walker assigned to Main Red Claws.

1st Q
Like the early effort in the paint going 5/6
Held Knicks to only 4 shots in the paint
Still living and dying at 3 pt land...Glad Pierce was hot! But this still is not the answer.

2ndQ
For part of the quarter, the C's showed some nice signs of moving the ball quicker in transition.
C's only 2/5 from the paint while taking 9 shots from 3 pt range. what gives?
Knicks scored a bunch in the paint to get close going 7/12.
What's up with Rondo taking last shot of Q after a time out and set play...Where are their heads!

3rdQ
Don't know if it was a bad start for the Knick's or good Defense by the C's to start the Q.
Again C's going back to the paint with Perkins dominating and Rondo penetrating going 7/8!
Knicks went 5/6 in the paint and 5/9 from 3 pt land to finish strong and at one point going on a 10/0 run!

4th Q
Poor start by C's getting into penalty foul trouble with 6:45 to go.
With 6:00 to go C's bench being out scored by Knicks bench 21/47.
Again with game on line Knicks scored an easy lay-up with everyone standing around..where's the pressure...where is the Defense!
C's 5/7 in the paint vs. 3/11 for Knicks again too many attempts down low by Knicks!

Kudo's KG Nice Trip!

OT
Again Ray is not hitting wide open 3 shots..has he lost his edge?
Again mental lapses C's take time out with 1 sec left before 24 sec clock expires and no pick-up on pick and roll with 10 sec left to tie score.

Thanks KG.......Now Let's get the hell outa here! "I'd rather be In Philadelphia!" WC Fields

I am afraid that this will be a trying season unless Doc wip's them into shape or a trade wip's them back to what may be a quick exit come April!
