I have no idea what to think about this game. It's a total toss-up.

The C's will seek revenge in game 2. If we continue the trend to shoot 3's all night long we don't stand a chance.

I predict a win by at least 10 points.

There's no reason why we can't play the same way we did in the first half of game 1. I don't think the Celtics can guard any of our players. We're getting into the lane with ease and it's opening up shots for others. I know Howard had 22 rebounds last night, but he seemed mentally out of it all night long. He never seemed to fight for any rebound. He runs back on defense way too early. Never sticks around for an offensive board. I don't know why our coaching staff doesn't say anything to him. He should honestly take notes from Battie and Gortat from game 6 of the Sixers series. If Howard shows up mentally tomorrow night, I have no doubts.

If Lewis is hitting his shots....then feed Lewis all night. If Big Baby Davis is guarding Rashard, then i say Sweet Lew is our go to guy.

Rashard has Davis in height(slightly) and speed.

I'm glad we gave away the lead the other night. Even though we won, I think it sent our guys to the locker room unhappy. I believe we'll have a focused, rather than complacent, team.

but i bet Boston is pissed. They will want revenge, so we better play hard and Magic ball all game long! Ray Allen isn't going to be that quiet all series.

That seems highly improbable to me. There is just too much talent on that Boston team. A sweep would meant that we kept Rondo, Pierce, and Allen in check every game, and I really can't see that happening four times in a row. Just my opinion, though.

We are 48 minutes of good basketball from taking a strangle hold on this series. This is a golden opportunity that we can't let pass. I think it's very big to win this game. Knock these guys down, and then hopefully we can put them out in Orlando. This one is big for us, we gotta knock them down tonight.
