Dick Bavetta putting on a show in the Garden. Doc and Woodson are racing to see who will get the first tech for berating the refs, which they both have done ALL game long. This is some atrocious reffing both directions.
Yeah it's easy not to complain about the refs when your star player doesn't get called for a foul for 6 games :up: Well Doc actually started it going the first 3 foul calls of the game :rofl: Then Mike Woodson jumped on. It reminds me of that Rondo amazing OT loss game against you guys in the playoffs. Refs all over the place.
Avery Bradly just did the 3 to the dome celebration after hitting a 2 pointer. Needs to work on his math. And this game is going to end how it always does for the Knicks, Paul Pierce dagger
Also we might play Amare down the stretch, ehhh. Celtics killing us with ball pressure as Kidd, Smith can't break it and Prigs wasnt' able to when he is in the game. Melo is going to shoot us in the game but most likely outta of the game. Ice cold today
KG's not a tough guy, he just plays one on TV It's almost like having a 73 year old do a job based on eyesight and athleticism is a bad idea!
Celtics defense has gotten a lot better since I watched them last week. Not sure if Bradley has this much effect, or if they just got up for the game
The Celtics get a foul call and Doc Rivers still complains and he's got a point. But man, Melo is iceeeeee cold.
Garnett would foul out of every game if the refs ever called a moving screen on him. Meanwhile, Melo just picked up his 5th. The Knicks need to bring help when Garnett backs him down, he's not a good enough defender to take KG one on one down low.
Exactly my point. He continuously steps into the faces of smaller players and acts tough but is scared of other guys his size. He got punked by Kris Humphries and tried to walk away from it.
Knicks are switching for no reason. That's been the problem defensively all game. It's gotten Pierce on Kidd, KG on Melo. Whenever they want a switch, the Celtics are getting it offensively.
The Knicks live by Melo, die by Melo. Now JR's leaving covered in blood...not good, considering how poorly Anthony's been shooting.
Celtics just working the Knicks defense when they need to, Knicks struggling on their end. It's nice to get Amare some big minutes, but I would rather not have him out there offensively or defensively right now. Could you believe this game if Rondo and Felton were also playing? They would have been thrown out by now. Both really chippy players
It's not a rivalry according to Pierce though. When he retires, I'll pay for whatever his travels needs are to get him home and out of a Celtic jersey
Pierce is one of my least favorite players in any sport, but there's no denying that he's money down the stretch.
