Nice win for the C’s. A victory tonight would give ‘em a huge boost heading into the break.
Speaking of which, lucky for Boston, there appears to be no break for Ray Allen. From Marc Spears of the Globe:
NEW ORLEANS – With his right hand wrapped in black tape, Ray Allen looked more like he [...]

Hey, DWill checking in with a couple leftover notes from the weekend.
Ray Allen made a trip to UConn on Saturday to watch his alma mater play Michigan. And the All-Star was a little surprised at what he discovered:
Ultra-intense Huskies coach Jim Calhoun has mellowed, a little.
“I don’t think he could have kept up the way [...]

Long day for the Green. Good day for Matt Bonner.
Losses to the Lakers and Spurs — by a combined seven points — shouldn’t induce panic.
So let’s lighten up the mood. Quite frankly, Andy Samberg’s career peaked with “Lazy Sunday”.
But this week’s offering, “I’m on boat”, featured T-Pain and name checked a Celtics player:

I take back what I said about Kendrick Perkins. Tim Duncan still has 20, but Perk stuffed the Spurs center on a laup attempt towards the end of the third quarter. It was pretty impressive.

Los Angeles Lakers 110, Boston Celtics 109
OK consipracy theorists. It’s time to stoke the flames!
During the final possession of the game, Derek Fisher looked like he had his hands on Ray Allen. No call there.
Adding insult to injury, flu-bitten Kevin Garnett fouled out with 4:22 remaining in regulation.
Lamar Odom got fouled with his team trailing [...]

Here’s a brief, unscientific primer for tonight’s matchup, which will air at 8 p.m. on TNT.
Update: KG will play, Doc Rivers said today.
Sour Grapes
Allegedly, revenge is a dish best served purple and gold.
“We had our most disappointing moments on that Boston Celtic court in Game 6,” Phil Jackson told reporters Wednesday night. “To [...]
