Tony Allen in the game instead of Big Baby, who's been f.ucking absurdly good this series. Doc is a motherf.ucking moron.

Russell and KC Jones were winning NCAA national championships in 54 and 55

Russell had a shot clock his whole career in 1956 on.......the Celts were actually the leaders of the black player roster breakthrough....the city was and still is the most racist northern city in america which is what I remeber growing up there then

1. You are absolutely correct. I was thinking college.
The standing in the lane on D used however so it still was very difficult on offense.
Isolations, 2 man game not nearly as effective. My bad.

2. YOu just made my point. Breakthrough.
There does not need to be any breakthrough if the best players are
playing. Clearly all the talent was not being tapped.

Don't you think Rondo got that ball off the board.........great game. Boston has done well with no Garnett. It will be tough for Chicago to win in Boston on Saturday. DelNegro has done a tremendous job

[satan's twin]

Neither team is going anywhere after this series but this has been just insanely fun to watch.

What chance they got to win in Boston? 5%?

I dont.
He may have bothered.
No way Heinrich should miss that.

Really sort of an inept game but very exciting.

I dunno.
Allen went nuts tonight and they still lost.
Every game, except one, has been extraordinarily close.

[SCUDSBROTHER]

Noah ran so fast on that steal play. It's like they were giving out a pound of weed to the first guy to the basket.

Actually no......please name me 5 great black collegiate players from that era who didn't play in the NBA then. It was certainly oppressive but your trying to draw conclusions that aren't valid. Auerbach was a pretty shrewd guy....He knew Russell was his key to immortality and that Bird would bring him a second dynasty. McHale and Parrish for Joe Barry Carroll speaks for itself....

Seriously...
You are really serious with this?

How many blacks had a chance to go to college?
Please take a look at college rosters now compared
to the late 50's and early 60's.

And then still tell me the talent was fully tapped
with a straight face.... errr... without typing crooked
My conclusion is athletic talent was not as fully utilized
as it is today in basketball. You disagree, and say I am drawing
invalid conclusions... Yikes.

It's way higher than that. Pierce is gassed and Ray gave them everything he had tonight. Rondo played scared and Doc tried to fix what wasn't broke. Plus the bench is a joke. It cost them the game, and I give the Bulls a great shot on Saturday. This was a game the Celts had no excuse losing.

The Celtics aren't going anywhere without KG and without a bench, but I'd like to win this series. Gonna be interesting to see how badly they want it on Saturday, knowing that if they win, a grueling series with Orlando is waiting.

Big Baby is part of a lineup that turns a 12-point deficit into an 8-point lead in about six minutes, so what does he do? TAKE HIM OUT AND PUT IN TONY ALLEN, who doesn't know his ass from his elbow on offense. Unfathomable incompetence. It's like he got a call from the league saying 'we need this thing to go 7'.

If they lose this game, and eventually the series, Doc should be freaking thrown off a roof (a low one).

And he is about 2 levels ahead of Vinny Del Stupido

And the refs have been consistently poor

This is a close, entertaining series but it hasnt exactly been a basketball masterpiece,

You are joking right?

Noah dunked on Pierce. LMAO. That guy is so overrated it hurts. Little b.itch needed Allen and Garnett to win a championship and now that Garnett is out he's struggling to get out of the first round against the baby bulls. Get the f.uck out of here with that weak s.hit, Paul.

coach correct me if i am wrong but didn't KG have the same problems when he was in minnesota , i don't remember him getting out of the 1st round very often

Yeah but the difference is Garnett wouldn't let Sideshow Bob steal the ball from him, dunk on him, and foul him out.

I would expect nothing else from that KU bum. I am a Bulls fan, but it hurts me a little any time I have to cheer for any KU player to do well....him in particular.

Couldn't agree more.
Vinny is terrible.

I had heard from a couple of Bulls fans that Vinny was overmatched but thought they may just being too harsh. After watching his work this series they couldnt be more right.
