Ray Allen should also not have 42 minutes methinks.

How did baby look out there? I only caught the box score.

hes growing on me. the offense looks a lot smoother with e-house and big baby than with perk and rondo, but obv you give up defense with the former combo.

He looked good except for the one time he put his head down and tried to dribble coast to coast.

Boston teams (Bruins don't count obv) now unbeaten in last 21 games. Red Sox 7, Patriots 9, Celts 5

Unbelievable games for rookie forwards Glen Davis and Sean Williams. Davis turned the game around almost single-handedly for the C's and Williams had an amazing 4th quarter for the Nets. C's played awful in the 4th, they're certainly TO-prone to say the least. Possibly their only weakness.

I have Sirius, so I listened to the Nets radio feed for a little bit on the way home. Thought their play-by-play guys were very good.

Baby looked solid, his energy translates well.

Also, dont know if others have noticed this, but pierce and perkins have EXCELLENT chemistry. Every game it seems one gets an assist to the other, then the favor is returned later that game. Pretty neat. (one play in particular a few games ago where PP went up for a 3, saw perk down low, and changed his mind and hit him with a laser pass for the dunk... Then, today, Perk grabbed an O board and was going to go up with it, but caught pierce open, and flung it to him)

I actually want a close 4th Q game really badly, because I want to know how the Cs will handle it. tonight doesnt count, it was a blowout and then the nets thought they could just run up the score by fouling. (perhaps they had bet the over)
Also, dont know why you say davis "turned the game around," since when he came in the Cs had the lead. If you mean, "turned the game into a rout," well, then, I'd agree [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

Agreed with the above poster I love the chem between Garnet and Pierce. They complament each others games so well. The biggest problem on O by far is TO's, to many unforced ones.

I don't mind the turnovers on passes when someone is making a hard cut to the basket, where if completed, results in free throws or an easy 2. They are making a lot of passes of that sort, and it is better than having KG or Pierce going 1-on-1 and ending up with a fadeaway 18 footer.

Garnett and Rondo have had issues a couple times on simple outlet passes where the ball gets turned over. Those types of turnovers do erk me.
