Despite playing in its third city in four nights, Boston gave a refreshing
performance Friday in a 113-88 victory over Phoenix. The Celtics scored the
first 13 points, and Jeff Green led five players in double figures with a
season-high 31 while starting in place of veteran Kevin Garnett, who was given
the night off.

"I just tried to make a statement early and that's what I did by attacking
the rim and getting to the free throw line," said Green, who sat out last season
after undergoing surgery to fix an aortic aneurysm.

Boston (29-26) also got 10 points off the bench from Jordan Crawford in his
first game since being acquired from Washington on Thursday

Evening gents, and Ros!

I'm going to try to actually watch most of this game. Though since I got two pups I don't think I've watched close to a full game......

by **RosalieTCeltics** on Sun Feb 24, 2013 8:25 pm

Hi Bob and everyone else! Hopefully we will continue on the winning way.

Doc just got a T. He really has been very vocal lately

Second T in the last two games

by **RosalieTCeltics** on Sun Feb 24, 2013 8:27 pm

I have always liked Aldrich. Smooth player and a good shooter

by **RosalieTCeltics** on Sun Feb 24, 2013 8:37 pm

eh---kind of a sloppy first quarter. Guys need tp step it up a bit

by **RosalieTCeltics** on Sun Feb 24, 2013 8:43 pm

when all else fails, there is always the 3 second call. I hate it.

by **bobc33** on Sun Feb 24, 2013 8:54 pm

Ros, darn we got off to a good start but since.........

by **k_j_88** on Sun Feb 24, 2013 8:57 pm

I'd like to see T Will get more minutes.

by **k_j_88** on Sun Feb 24, 2013 8:58 pm

BOS: 32.4% FG

POR: 57.7% FG

Garnett, Green, Lee, Bass, and Crawford aren't shooting particularly well.

by **RosalieTCeltics** on Sun Feb 24, 2013 9:02 pm

They are all cold. Bass just stood there and didn't try to steal that ball under the basket. That must have to make Doc crazy.

by **k_j_88** on Sun Feb 24, 2013 9:02 pm

Interestingly enough, Boston has taken 9 more shots than Portland.

Oh yeah and Bass is the last guy I'd want doing ISO >.<

by **bobc33** on Sun Feb 24, 2013 9:10 pm

Looks like I'm not going to see much of this game, but come Cs kick their butt in the second half.

by **RosalieTCeltics** on Sun Feb 24, 2013 9:11 pm

Second half should be better. They all shot lousy the first half but most of the shots were open shots.

by **sam** on Sun Feb 24, 2013 9:23 pm

This is definitely a winnable game. They just have to calm down, harness their energy. and not force things.

by **RosalieTCeltics** on Sun Feb 24, 2013 9:26 pm

Darn that Mathews, he is really hot

by **RosalieTCeltics** on Sun Feb 24, 2013 9:28 pm

good defense brings good offense

by **k_j_88** on Sun Feb 24, 2013 9:28 pm

As poorly as they are playing, they're still in this. I just think that Portland is a decent team but they lack stopping power with their current roster.
