NinaC this is a post cut-and-pasted from a boston.com fan forum thread. I was over there asking what were their thoughts, pre-game.
As you'll read below, I didn't see the last quarter and the last 3 minutes of the 3rd - but I still have My First Question for Professor/Mr. Ed.
I could write a new post but like I said, this is from a celtics board thread (link below) :
It's, like, 8.30 in the AM there in Beanburg, Mass. Here in Oz/Australia, it's 11.29 PM Wednesday night.
I started the Game Thread on philly.com, knowing I had an early-afternoon appointment, my time, and I'd have to leave mid-to-late 3rd quarter. I switched off and left at 3:02 in the 3rd. Dalembert, with 1 foul, 8 points, 8 boards, 2 real turnovers and one dead-set dodgy offensive goaltending call - had just gone-bench for MoMo. Oh yeah - Sam'd just jammed a dunk down to drag us back to 14 down too, after we'd been down by 20 in the quarter.
I did not agree with the substitution, but I thought maybe Jor'dan was resting Big Haiti. Or something. Anyway, I muttered that EJ should've dragged EB for MoMo, and I left the office.
I'm about to go back to philly.com and read what the phans (and the phreaks) posted in the Game Thread after I left, but I'd like to make a point here before I do that. In my pregame post in this thread, I said if we were to compete with the Big Green Dream Machine - Dalembert would have to stay out of foul trouble. I also said he's no KG but he can be a double-double center with above-average lane-locking skill. Again, he's no KG.
Big Haiti finished the game with 8 points, 8 boards and 1 phreakin' phoul. Why, "What's The" DeaLio - I mean Professor/Mr. Ed, oh why did he only get 24 minutes? Would we have been more competitive if he'd played 39? If he hadn't been benched after a team-lifting dunk would we have continued to come back? Probably, slash, maybe not.
I could say a little more, but I might cut and paste a post or 2 from our bored (compared to yrs) if anyone's interested - and conphreakingratulaions, you septic Celtic scums...
This is the first new post in our Game Thread :
