    Celtics are not into tonight's game, fellas....

    The team's probably going to be a little depressed. Tight-knit group loses a beloved brother (Perk), a wacky nephew (Nate), a friendly foreign exchange student (Semih), a stoner cousin (Daniels) and a plucky mascot (Gody) in one fell swoop? All in exchange for a young guy nobody's tight with, a foreigner and a bunch of empty roster spaces with ?s on them.

    (above pasted from a blog)

    Rondo and Perk are best friends.. I'm not worried about the big 3 tonight,
    but I think Rondo may be sloppy.

    With JO and Shaq out, they are down to 8 players. Delonte is not even
    at 50% out there. Only guy I heard may get there in time is Tiny Gallon
    a callup from Maine.

    i think the celtics should have just kept perkins, their deep frontline rotation is one of their advantages against miami

    Celtics are pissed sure, and they will take it out on Denver. Blowout.

    They've made trades before and they seem to welcome whomever they get, e.g., KG, Shaq. It's all business in a sense. I can't imagine a team not showing to play on account of this. I would assume the players knew ahead of time too.

    Boston's big guns are accomplished veterans who have all changed jerseys in their own right. It's a business and they know it....no boohoos.

    Well Perkins open that door himself. Boston offered him a contract, but he wanted more. More than what he is actually worth. It happens..

    From what I've seen Snowball knows his Celtics. If he has a doubt about them tonight I'll stay off of them. May make a small play on Denver plus the points. Thanks for the post Snow.

    Some guy on C's hub said they think it's gonna be Nuggets 101-94 Celtics.

    Don't think so.

    They came out and blew out the Grizzlies

    So who is suiting up for the Celtics? KG, Glen Davis, Ray Allen, Paul Perice, Rondo and Delonte West? Just a 6 man rotation?

    Ok thanks for the info. Looks like the Celtics aren't going to have any beef down low. I guess they're playing small ball tonight. The entire rotation outside of Glen Davis, KG, and Perice are guards.

    Only thing that concerns me is if they can keep running with the nuggs as the game goes on. Without even dressing 2 full units, it could get away from them in the 2nd half. Certainly no play for me.

    I heard they were trying to get Tiny Gallon out there in time for the game, not sure if he's going to make it though. Coming from Maine D-League team

    they actually signed center chris johnson from d-league, watched him once and hes pretty athletic but not sure if he is nba-ready especially with a skinny frame. he is supposed to be ready for tonight's game.

    What concerns me is Denver has Nene, Birdmanm Kenyon Martin and Al Harrington in the paint. Alot of bodies to bang down low where as the Celtics just have an old KG and an undersized PF in Glen Davis. I'm pretty sure Glen Davis gets in foul trouble and I don't think Doc is gone play KG a full game because the big picture is still to keep KG fresh.

    He's on the Maine Red Claws, the Cs/Bobcats D league affiliate. Heard they were trying to bring him up to the Cs for tonights game. No idea how true that is, or what the process is for bringing a guy up from D league, but that's a rumor that NESN or someone had going. Heard it from a few places

    I hate the Celts but i feel bad Perk. The dude doesnt deserve to be traded, he works way too hard and has done way too much for this team. Celtics are going to lose today and end up getting killed in the playoffs.

    I bet last night on the Celts here, agree this should be a no-play now that they'll be shorthanded. Gonna watch the game and hope for an early Celts lead - think if they're down late, they're just gonna call it and pack it up for the rest of the night rather than fight.

    I liked Perk too, but he had it coming... he turned down a 4 yr/$28 mil extension, and the Cs weren't gonna pay him the 10 mil he wanted. He shouldn't have gotten greedy, especially with his injury risks.

    That being said, I would've preferred having him in a Cs uniform for a long time

    guys, just stay away from the C's until they fill the roster spots
    and get a week's practice in.
    they're just not going to be reliable for some time here.
