Delonte West was in clear agony before he exited the court. Celtics were without a true PG for the remainder of the half since Nate had 3 fouls.

 

Props to a number of guys on our squad. Petro made all three jumpers he attempted from the same spot as apart of a 12-0 run from the first quarter into the second. Morrow hasn't missed yet from the field.

Overall, the first half went our way. We scored 12 unanswered points from the first quarter into the second. Allen and Pierce were silent along with most of the Boston squad. Robinson hit foul trouble, and West was playing well before the injury. We went into halftime up eight.

 

In the third quarter, Boston's shooters were still cold at first. That gave us a huge break. We had nine turnovers in the third and were playing unacceptable basketball. We started to bend but had not broken.

 

The crowd began to get into the action in the fourth quarter. We eventually broke. Shaq was muscling out Lopez down low for boards, and for some time, the fouling of Shaq didn't translate to missed FT's. Pierce got his shot back and later connected with a wide open Allen for three (Morrow hardly had his attention on him, it seemed).

 

Boston took a nine-point lead with just over two minutes left. Harris hit a three and a two to bring it close before Nate hit a three. We almost whispered back in the final seconds, but that was the game. The one thing you have to like about this is that Avery doesn't let his players go away quietly.
