No minutes for game 4, though it would have been a hell of a game to write during. Instead, I watched the game on an almost wall-sized television with some buddies, Nothing better than seeing a life-sized Glenn Davis drooling in hi-def.
However, I'm back for Game 5, and a hell of a game it will be.

I like what Pierce is doing in this game. Lots of Iso against Artest and Odom. He's stepping back to create space and just knockin down tough shots. Rondo needs to get things a bit more under control and have him distribute a little better.

CELTICS lead at the Half, 45-39
Half time thoughts: Pierce is the man. Give the man the ball. Rondo, stop turning the ball over. 11 turnovers in the 1st half is the only reason the C's are only up 6. Oh, and the retarded Free throws the Lakers are being gifted with. C's are finally hitting shots tonight, but they're not getting the rebounds like they were in game 4. Calm down, get Pierce the ball, and watch the Truth in action. BEAT L.A. BEAT L.A. BEAT L.A.
Doc says "Get the ball, don't give up the ball"...Glad we're on the same page, Doc.

Breaking Bad is in a commercial...of course.
Meanwhile, that Coors light commercial with the chick asking if her man likes what he sees, is hilaroius, only because he puts the candle out with the beer because its a "fire hazard"... Seeing your beer is cold is the most unnecessary advertising gimmick I've ever seen. If you don't know your beer is cold, you've already drank too much beer.
