[Celtics' Stuff ] CBW review: Battered, but unbowed, the Good Guys are 1-0 on the 1st WC trip

[Snoopy the Celtics Beagle]

For long stretches of the game, the Celtics were not executing their 
offense.  What saved the game was, with the exception of that stretch 
in the third quarter, how well they played defense, especially in the 
second quarter.  Had they continued that defensive effort 
consistently in the third, this game would have been over by the 
fourth quarter.  The credit for that HAS to go to the guy who has 
somehow managed to instill a killer defensive attitude in the Good 
Guys.  What the C's need, almost as badly as a backup PG, is simply 
to play more consistently.  Their offense has been sputtering 
unexpectedly, which is a bad sign, considering how early reviews 
portrayed the C's as an offensive juggernaut.  They NEED this defense 
to be played consistently.
