Re: Game 22: Celtics (9-12) vs. Bucks (12-8)
A horrible offensive effort in the second quarter and an equally bad defensive effort in the second half cost us this game. The Celtics should've won. Some positives were Marcus Banks, Delonte West, Mark Blount, Paul Pierce, and Ryan Gomes.

Also with 23 seconds left, down by three do you foul or do you foul the other team? According to the Celtics you let them drain the clock to 13 seconds before fouling. Doc was pissed, he threw down his playbook while yelling.

He was pissed because he thought it was 8 seconds.

How did you like that blockout by Dickau? I thought it was perfect, he was screaming "ohhh don't hurt me."

They wasted about eight seconds before fouling. I think that's why he was pissed. Ricky was right next to a Buck and allowed him to go before fouling him later and fouling out.

When he was in the game, the Celtics sucked (the entire second quarter).

Doc also said that he was disappointed at Al's rebounding. "We don't want him to score, we want him to rebound."
Now it could be just me, but I think Doc's passing the insanity line.
Perk is supposed to rebound and play defense.
Al is supposed to rebound.
Pierce, I guess, is supposed to do everything.
Raef is supposed to shoot every time he gets the ball.
Does every team do this or is Glen the only one who does this?

Re: Game 22: Celtics (9-12) vs. Bucks (12-8)
I just realized Pierce almost had a triple double. It must suck coming up one rebound short. It's nice to see him get 10 assists though...

Excuse me, but Mark Blount was *not* a positive this game.
He committed 6 turnovers, more than anyone else on either team. And that's not counting the times he did his patented statue routine, just standing around, not moving his arms or his legs while some opposition player helped himself to a loose ball that Blount had a reasonable shot at getting.
Blount, as almost always, was the main reason we lost this game. Because when he is in the game without Perkins as his nursemaid it's very nearly the safest bet going that the opposition will run more fast breaks than we do. Even if the opposition is the exceedingly slow Houston Rockets, never mind a team as fast as the Bucks.
If someone could find a way to slip Mark a mickey half an hour before every game we'd be in the playoffs for sure, that's how bad Mark is, his offense notwithstanding.

I have a few additional reasons if I might:
1. Doc SUCKS big time as a coach. Why Perkins does not play more is beyond me. His rotations have absolutely no rhyme or reason to them whatsoever. It's always a good move not to play Justin Reed at all, considering the guy plays with more hustle and heart than most people on the team.
2. Speaking of heart and desire, Big Al, to me, just doesn't have it. The kid has talent for sure, granted. But here is a guy who has dominated before coming to the pros and now is kind of a deer in the headlights. He just doesn't seem to have "it." Perkins, on the other hand, has loads of intensity and heart.
3. Banks killed us with a few fancy, no-look passes at extremely critical junctures of the game. The guy just has no perception of timing (when to take it to the rack on a fast break, and when you are just outright forcing things).

You must have been at a different game...it seems like you're the only guy who didn't like Banks' first game back.

It could have better. Banks still tries to do way too much. He must have learned his decision making on the fast break from Antoine.
