[AxelFoley]

Im up and rearing to go....what a day of sport we have. U the only one awake pete?

Boston will win this easy

 

[Burningleviathan]

Orlando can't score after a good start. Celts looking good.

 

[hayes]

I love how these contenders keep coming up and Boston just keeps knocking them off. Miami twice, now probably Orlando. Just an amazing team and just proves how overrated Rondo is. Even Pierce can rack up the assists when you're surrounded by that much talent.

 

[hayes]

This game would be over if Nate could hit at least one of his 10 open shots that he's missed.

Rondo isn't overrated. As you said, his backup can't hit a shot. Replace Nate with Rondo and the Celtics are up by 15 easy.

 

[footylover18]

Orlando REALLY need another big man. Bass is not bad but is undersized and Ryan Anderson simply isnt good enough.

hi axel.

just re-work up. after my earlier posts i decided to catch some zzzs again. no awake and eating brekky.

so nervous about the laker game. we're not good on xmas day, remember last years blowout? disgraceful performance cannot be repeated.

Rondo isn't overrated. As you said, his backup can't hit a shot. Replace Nate with Rondo and the Celtics are up by 15 easy.

how did you come up with a celtic lead of 15?


lando win.

celtics just walk off the floor. dont even acknowledge the magic players. at least the knicks and bulls wished each other a merry xmas

Just an amazing team and just proves how overrated Rondo is.

Rubbish.

You don't lead the league in ast and stl if you're not elite.

And then you make it out like Pierce getting ast is something unusual. He's always been able to get assists especially when he's had to run the point.

It's like you've seen about 4 PP games in the last 10 years.

 

[Special Agent Utah]

Orlando win by 8.

Who is the second commentator in the magic/celtics game?

 

[footylover18]

hi axel.




how did you come up with a celtic lead of 15?

made it up. sounded nice.

 

[AndSmithMustScore]

The funniest thing was that it was so obvious this meant 1000 times more to Van Gundy than it did to Rivers.

 

[Special Agent Utah]

Bulls go down to Knicks as well.

Disappointing.

Rose 12-28 with 7 Turnovers

 

[peternorth]

wade is playing

 

[footylover18]

Not sure what's going to happen this game, but when Bynum is fit and playing his quota of mins i dont see how the Heat can matchup with the Lakers. Bynum, Gasol, Odom...that's too much tallness for the Heat soft frontcourt.

 

[peternorth]

The funniest thing was that it was so obvious this meant 1000 times more to Van Gundy than it did to Rivers.

i think it did cause rivers has a championship and this game is the closest thing VG has to a title.*






* no idea to be honest. some strange post xmas comments here today, i just wanted to throw one out too

 

[footylover18]

Was at the Lakers Suns game at Staples earlier in the season. TV doesn't do this arena justice. Awesome stadium.

 

[Burningleviathan]

You have to put that Celts loss down to Robinson. Guy couldn't hit the side of a barn today. If Rondo is in there they would of won or at least ran some better offense at the end.

Hopefully a good game coming up.

 

[footylover18]

Look for Artest to get stuck into James:


"I'll do something tomorrow to make him mad," Artest said. Artest also acknowledged that an angry LeBron is a more dangerous LeBron, but insisted that the Lakers want his A game in order for their not to be any excuses after the game.

 

[PHX]

Oh **** yeah. Great fighting win and of course its more important to Orlando with the new team, recent losses and home game but the fact remains that Boston choked.

 

[Burningleviathan]

Geez, the refs are giving Lebron an easy ride today.

Nice dunk by Bosh.

 

[TheStinger]

Not sure what DWade wanted on his botched dunk attempt. The refs to bail him out probably. Odom never touched him.
