Nice game but it wasn't perfect. Bench shot 10 for 31. Just thought I'd try to find something to complain about.

That'll normally cost you a win, but the starters were beyond belief.

Hope Rondo doesn't have to miss many more games but I'd rather he completely heal before coming back so he doesn't do what Wade did tonight (1 for 13) and come back before he's ready.

I missed the entire game due to RAIN!!! I spent the entire middle quarters on the phone with a Dish Network representative from India, trying to figure it out. I told him that this NEVER happened with DirecTV. He had no comment. We finally got the darned dish to get most channels, but still not Comcast. He promised a fix in 15 minutes (he downloaded something my way) and hung up, but after an hour, it still didn't work.

Good thing the qame is being rebroadcast at noon today on Comcast, I'll get to watch it tonight. After the last couple of stinkers, can you imagine my frustration?

If this continues to affect my viewing pleasure, I will be saying fairwell to Dish Network and hello to cable.

we had some issues with Direct TV couple of games ago but it got straightened out after a phone call..........to where I don't know.

As for the game. Wasn't much the C's didn't do well.

Atlanta was down I guess and we shoved um a bit lower.
Got off to a nice lead and really never looked back.

Happy Thanksgiving to all board memeber and participants.

How quickly things change from one year to the next.

A 4 game sweep during the regular season last year had the Hawks thinking all we need to do is show up. They had no respect for the Celtics.

To their credit the Hawks had figured out a way to beat Boston.

Fast forward to the 2010 season and the Hawks found themselves playing a team that really did not look like the team that they beat last year.

Two major differences (1) KG was not healthy last year...but he is now and (2) Shaq was now in the middle.

Result, Horford looked like a small child trying to get around Shaq, the highlight factory would not be open for business this night.

The result Josh and Al combined for 8 points and 7 rebounds. Josh was taken out by Shaq when he attempted to add another frame to the highlight film with a hard drive to the basket and all intentions to throw down a dunk. Not today... Shaq met him in the street, mano mano sending Josh to the line never to be heard from again in this game.

In Shaq the Celtics finally have their bully. The big kid down the street that keeps the other kids from beating the snot out of you. The amiable Green Giant, kissing everyone on the forehead.
