what a game.
I don't really like the Celtics, from my time spent living in Boston and their all-of-a-sudden return to greatness while I was there. I found myself jumping on the Orlando Magic wagon last year, because watching Dwight Howard as the NBA's premier big man and then watching that whole team chuck 3 point shots relentlessly is fun. also, growing up who didn't like Penny and Shaq?
I was really hoping Boston would lose, but they are such a solid team defensively, even without their defensive leaders KG and Leon Powe. the Celtics are not dangerous because of one player, they are dangerous because they play like a team and have great coaching.
that being said, I think both of these teams this year are without a couple important factors that will render them unable to reach the NBA Finals.
back to the game. it was a very good game, getting close at the end and then it was surreal watching both teams grind to a near halt in point production in the last three minutes.
of course, the whole gym imagined that the ball would be going into Boston Celtic Ray Allen's hands, only to see him get the ball, penetrate and dish it out to "Big Baby" Glen Davis (whom isn't quite known for his shooting prowess. the Boston Celtics are so god damned lucky, it can drive a non-fan sick sometimes.
oh snap! sick buzzer beater by big baby! did anyone see him push the orlando towel boy out of the way after he sank that shot! LMFAO!!!! it was fucking hilarious. wait til that shot hits youtube, then pay attention after he makes the shot. :D
yeah! I saw that, too. is his big ass blind or something?
initially, he almost plows into the ref; and then he takes out some unsuspecting and completely innocent towel boy.
