I know everyone cries fix all the time but Boston/Nets was

[GiveMeaBJ]

I didn't have either side in this game. I am a Nets fan too. But come on. 1 PM game on a college basketball Saturday. They know nobody is going to watch. They get Nets +12 so they don't even have to do much work just keep it close. Nets shoot an very high amount of free throws, Boston shoots a very low amount of free throws. The game was called much differently for both sides from what I saw. They end up having the Nets win because Celtics go cold from 3. This has a 50% chance of being a fix.

Doesnt matter you dont lose to nets at home. Lakers would be drilled right now if that happened. Why is boston getting off the hook?

[onlooker]

I found it strange that two of the NBA games tipped off early. Saturday NBA usually starts at 7pm EST.

Now it being fixed or not, well I didn't watch it.

weeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee

[bigboyfosho]

They had it at 1 PM because there was an indoor lacross game on after at the garden

[landers781]

Celtics arent getting off the hook from me. Pathetic! They dont deserve a playoff spot. No pierce no glory I guess. I cant wait for sports talk radio on Monday. Bring on the Red Sox I am done with the green this year.

I agree with this to an extent LB. I think you are missing it though. The reason Boston is getting off the hook and not getting killed like the Lakers is because they haven't been on that same hook the Lakers are on. It's clear to people now Boston is no longer an East powerhouse. They are old and Allen and Garnett are not what they were just a year ago. Allen still has his nights but boy is Garnett a different player. If the Cavs would lose to the Nets at home they would get killed just like the Lakers.

Lacross gets to move Celtics games around? Now I heard it all.

[lakerboy]

Boston is really hurting.

[landers781]

The old geezers and the coach.

[Durrrr]

yea man, lacross is the shit!

[landers781]

This guy was a POS in Boston. Kind of kicking Red Auerbach to the curb and Trading Chauncey Billups (WTF) for Kenny Anderson

True story, was there.....

[GiveMeaBJ]

bigboy I think what he is getting at is that the Boston game wasn't played at 1 to make room for the lacrosse game.

[onlooker]

True story, was there.....

Didn't say it wasn't true, but couldn't they play that lacrosse game at 1pm? Celtics get bumped around by lacrosse now?

[Preston09]

Celtics suck and that's commin from a fan. I'm tired of KG's turn around fade away jumpers heels on the 3 pt line against a point guard!

[bigboyfosho]

Sorry, but it was.........

[bigboyfosho]

They have to change out the floors and stuff.....

[GiveMeaBJ]

BigBoy. They didn't tell the Celtics they had to play at 1 so lacrosse could play. It doesn't work like that. I am sure there was a lacrosse game after but they didn't move the Celtics start time to make room for lacrosse.

[bigboyfosho]

BigBoy. They didn't tell the Celtics they had to play at 1 so lacrosse could play. It doesn't work like that. I am sure there was a lacrosse game after but they didn't move the Celtics start time to make room for lacrosse.

Actually it does some time, just like when the Celtics and Bruins play on the same night/day, + there was a concert last night, why would they take out the floor, put the lacrosse field in, and then put the floor back in, that takes a lot of time. I went on the our before the lacroose game and thats what they told us, not sure what else to say....

[GiveMeaBJ]

We are both arguing about different things. Lets just call it a night.

[bigboyfosho]

Its all cordinated, but what do I know...right......you are the 20 year old pro

[bigboyfosho]

How are we arguing abou different things, your saying the celtics didn't play at 1 because of an event at night, and im saying they did, because thats what they said when i went on the tour, but fuk you know more than the people who cordinate all the events at the Garden, so my fault....

[GiveMeaBJ]

We are arguing about different things. I completley understand what you are saying. You are not understanding what I or onlooker are saying. I will attempt one more time to explain myself.

#1. There was a lax game played after.
#2. It takes time to switch from basketball to lax.
#3. The lax league DOESNT pull rank over the Celtics.

That is all I am trying to say.

[onlooker]

I guess that makes sense, don't want them to do double work in one day. But they couldn't schedule that for a different day?

[GiveMeaBJ]

The Celtics game was scheduled for 1. It wasn't moved so they could play lax.

[michalis]

the bestest team won

[eidolon]

BJ...I have the exact same thoughts. I looked at the score and was shocked. Then I looked at the foul count and saw 29 fouls versus 11...and I smelled 3 day old fish on the counter.

[Slim]

Players aren't fully awake at 1pm especially after a friday night.

[teaserpleaser]

i didnt watch the game cbb saturday but also thought boston would crush them.

[pitman]

i wouldnt doubt it

[cappinthepigs]

Tis possible

[Nomocino]

Father Time has caught up to the Celtics 13-16 since X-mas, after starting 23-5 and beating the Magic on Christmas day. Every so called NBA expert was putting them in the Finals agains the Lakers
