Frustrating, isn't it?! I guess maybe, very deep down, we all knew that these three games in four nights were going to be a tough match-up. The first two were decided by a lack of defensive stops and full 48-minute focus, but were certainly within the Celtics grasp. At least tonight, it was within Paul Pierce's grasp, who single-handedly kept them in the game, and their FG% above .400 on the night. We'll see how things play out against the Lakers back on their home turf on Sunday. Join us that night at 9pm as Jon, Justin and Kevin (who will have been at the game with our credentials) will be here for venting or celebration. With a win against the Lakers, all will be forgiven.
