No doubt about it, they came out like gang busters hitting everything.
Credit the Celts for hanging in with defense till the they started dropping
for us...when the Indy shots started meaning something they were clanking
iron...cry baby Jermaine needs more time with his nanny.....

> I don't see how one could not mention that defense we laid on Indy in the
2nd half.  I thought it was outstanding the way we contested shots.  Of
course, it helped that O'Neal sat out a good portion thanks to fouls, which
is really saying something because I agreed with Tommy about the treatment
of Pierce by the refs.  When your star player goes to the line 3 times
against a physical team, someone ain't seein' somethin'.

from the outside, we would have blown them out, even though we only shot
6/13 from the line.
