Simmons has some serious disdain for Doc Rivers. How a team goes from having the best road record during the regular season to being unable to win a playoffgame on the road is beyond me. I am starting to hate this *+%@%%* team.

KEVIN GARNETT: While we're coming clean, I haven't won anything either -- I've won three playoff series in 13 seasons.
DOC: Seriously? Wow! (Shaking his head.) I didn't realize that. I'm stunned right now.
GARNETT: It's easy to think we've won something because we've been giving interviews about winning for eight straight months to everyone with a camera or a microphone, and we've been allowing people to call us the "Big Three" even though Boston already had a "Big Three" that won three titles, and I have that Gatorade commercial that makes it seem like I've won something, and I just did that interview with Bill Russell where we talked about winning ...
DOC: Have any of you even played in the Finals?
ALLEN-GARNETT-PIERCE: No.
DOC: Really? Wow!
I like Simmons, but damn, another Celtics article?
Anyone see those numbers by Lebron in game 5's with the series tied 2 - 2?
LeBron in Game 5s (When series tied 2-2) *Cavs went on to win series

After watching the Patriots videos, I hate Boston sports even more than the entire state of Ohio*.
Cavs by 6. Gibson seals it with a three with less than 2 minutes left.
*I still hate them. A lot.

This is a 7 game series....
Celtics by 5 at home 88-83.... Jesus Shuttleworth and PP actually finds their shooting stroke and combine for 48
Bron has a 30 pt game but no support in the clutch

PIERCE: Actually, that's not true -- I've only won four playoff series in my entire career.
RAY: Yeah, I'm not a winner, either. I've only made the conference finals once. Even in college, I didn't win. The only big victory I've ever had was the time I housed Denzel in "He Got Game."
(Doc seems completely confused.)

Even if the Celtics win this, they'll have to win it in 7 at home: there's no way in hell they're winning at the Q on Friday night.
I actually saw LeBron breaking his 'slump' with a big game in game 4, but I guess I'll settle for tonight. I can most certainly see the rest of theteam playing horribly and LBJ catching fire from the outside. I have a feeling LBJ and Z are going to carry the load, with a few guys having 5-8 points, andthe Cavs taking this. We HAVE to keep Boston off the boards if we want to win, and the last couple games have been tremendous by our bigs AND role guys.
Wally, Delonte, Boobie and Z HAVE to knock down their jumpers. Please do guys, and let the crowd take care of the rest on Friday night.

delonte > rondo at what? shooting 3's? sure.
Rondo scores more, is a better passer, a better defender, and a better rebounder. Rondo also has a higher FG %. i really don't see how this is debatable.
Go Celtics.

POSEY: Exactly. Look, KG, you're my boy and I love you. When I hug you right before every tipoff, I hold onto you so tightly that it makes everyone in the first few rows legitimately uncomfortable. But everyone needs to be coached sometimes, and really, you haven't had a good coach your entire career.
DOC: James, I'm right here. I can hear everything.
EDDIE HOUSE (excited): Does that mean we're back to the old rotation?
DOC: Not exactly, Eddie.
DOC: Wait a second ... so if we put the right personnel out there, then I won't be able to over-coach and pull KG 25 feet from the basket to passive-aggressively double-team LeBron so KG can't rebound or protect the rim?
POSEY: Exactly.
DOC: I don't know if I agree with you, James.
