yeah, that hook might have worked against every other team in the league. but the Celtics get him off his spot and force a bad shot. Dwight needs to mix it up and be more aware offensively with the ball in his hands. Another big factor will be Dwight on the offensive boards. If he can get 10 points off tip-ins, and create some extra shot opportunities, thats just as good as forcing a turnover on defense.
Dwight quote from today : "I woke up and ate some alphabet cereal and the first scoop I picked up was `dominate.' So I stirred the bowl up, picked it up again, and it was `dominate.' So I ate it." link - http://sports.espn.go.com/nba/preview?gameId=290517002
yeah, apparently Ewing did too, he guaranteed a win, and Celtics coach Rivers commented how he had done that before when he played with the Knicks, and got shot down every time, so Rivers was optimistic about the prediction going wrong. Yeesh. Oh yeah.......45 minutes to go!!
I loath Boston as much as I do New England. If we lose tonight I will not be someone you would like to be around for a few days or more.
I like our game so far, but this is what happened in the first game in Boston, we built a big lead and almost lost it. Let's not get too far ahead of ourselves, a long way to go.
you gotta like the way the Magic have come out to play tonight, take what they give you and be efficient. let's hope the fouls are at a minimum tonight.
lol, you're in an Orlando Magic thread buddy, so just don't talk to much **** and you'll be ok. Good game so far man.
Yep, but we were ahead by 28 points in the first game and only won by 5, so until it's over I'm not going to sit still. But Go Magic!!!!!!
Everyone on the Magic came to play tonight. Ray Allen is the only effective player for the Celtics....so far.
Guys, if we hang on and win this. Please make sure you get a good hard look at the faces of the Celtics players, especially Garnett.
