Anyone for a Clip of some good Basketball tonight?

By

     It's time for some post holiday basketball! 

     1st Quarter 

     JB looking good! So far the Star of the team has been as advertised, hes getting to the hoop and getting his shot. Question is can he carry this team to a win? This writer hopes so. JB needs to learn how to finish games like the greats tend to do. He needs to be a closer when JT is not around. 

     Lack of D, where is it? 

     Tonight's D has a lot to improve on. It's been very lackluster to start. Not sure if the Celtics are still hung over after that slap to the face loss to the wolves. The Clippers are looking like all stars out there. 

     2nd Quarter

     Defense starting to pick up finally, switches are being made effortlessly, active hands and overall great communication seems to be spurring the Celtics this quarter. Defense wins games and at this point we just need wins. 

    GWill is leading the league in corner threes, did anyone ever think they would think that? This writer didn't even think he had a place on this roster originally. He's proven himself to me, and to all of the Celtics fans around! Dudes a three point corner shooting machine! 

    3rd Quarter 

    RWill is a baller, his game continues to evolve. His offensive game is growing like a flower ready to bloom. Defensively he's awesome, blocking shots, getting rebounds and even making steals. With solid minutes his game is constantly growing. He has been one of the most efficient Celtics this season. 

    JB continues to roll as this third quarter progresses JB has stepped up and his teammates have followed, as we watch Mr 3 GWill nail the shot. The lead is dwindling. JRich being back has been very nice to see. His play elevates when the Celtics need him. 

     4th Quarter 

     Anyone for some defense or ball movement? As this fourth quarter starts can the Celtics get it right? It starts on D, then we need some solid ball movement, let's set some screens, and get guys cutting to the hoop. Once again we are playing to the level of a mediocre team. Please get it together! 

      Finally they have brought the fight! Hauser hitting a three, Thomas is hustling his butt off. Romeo diving on the floor, getting rebounds! Let's Go! 

     This season is spiraling out of control.

In defense of Marcus Smart

By
 Let me make it clear first of all that I am totally against making a threat of any kind that even hints at harming, or certainly killing, another human being. Marcus Smart was wrong in doing so in the Celtics loss to the tanking Oklahoma City Thunder , and he deserved the one-game suspension. But to be honest, part of me loved that it occurred. . This type of thing can happen when a player gets to a point "beyond frustration" and is having a bad game. Marcus and his teammates have been under-performing generally - were in the process of losing to a pathetic-and-tanking Thunder team - and Smart was having a bad game . And he let loose verbally at the closest target - an NBA official. Wilt Chamberlain did a similar act versus referee, Earl Strom when Wilt was having his usual tortuous time at the free throw line (per Chicago Tribune's Sam Smith): ''He was in one of those 1-for-13s,'' recalls referee Earl Strom. ''Nothing was getting close. S...

One of those sources is Wikipedia, as seen below: Kevin McHale American basketball player DescriptionKevin Edward McHale is an American retired basketball player who played his entire professional career for the Boston Celtics. He is a Basketball Hall of Fame inductee, and is regarded as one of the best power forwards of all time. He was named to the NBA's 50th Anniversary All-Time Team. Wikipedia Born: December 19, 1957 (age 61 years), Hibbing, MN Wingspan: 8′ 0″ Height: 6′ 10″ Spouse: Lynn McHale (m. 1982) NBA draft: 1980, Boston Celtics (Round: 1 / Pick: 3) Hall of fame induction: 1999 Number: 32 (Boston Celtics / Power forward, Center) Kevin was listed at 6'10" tall when he was drafted with the 3rd pick in the 1980 draft.
