Overall, yet another great review, Bill!

One correction, though.  The Celts first basket of the 3rd quarter was 
a Kenny Anderson layup on a fast break.  I think it was off a Pierce 
steal and pass to Anderson at just the right moment.  

I believe their second came on either a Pierce jumper, or when they got 
4 offensive rebounds and finally converted on their 5th shot (a putback
underneath by Antoine).  Then Pierce hit a(nother?) jumper on the next 
play.  Whether that was Pierce's second jumper of the quarter or his first, 
I sensed that the 4-offensive rebound, 5-shot play really got the Celtics 
back on track, and definitely got the crowd back into the game.
