Re: Tell me I didn't see this

I saw most of the offensive fouls correctly called by the refs. Sure, we
didn't get respect from the refs the other way. The Celts have been going to
the well from too far out and giving NJ time to set up defenders. They may
suck, but their not stupid. All we need is one or two of our expendable
players to hit a few jump shots now and then, to open things up.  These guys
must have had their contacts in backwards today.
