Ibalka is a beast, blocking everything in sight

Celts need to push the ball more, their half court execution is garbage.  They have too many ball stoppers and always tend to force shots at the end of the shot clock.

if the game wasn't watered down and offensively-centric, Ibaka would be one of the most valuable players in the league

Get Allen hot and the team will feed off his momentum

The seems to be the only way they can get rolling now and days.

Rondo can penetrate but that's about all they got for creating offense.

Rondo is having a shocker, hes missed like four layups to go with those bad decisions

12/12 from the line for OKC.... impressive... It's a big reason they have such a big lead

Why did I get sucked into betting the Celtics again. That OKC line just looked to good to be true.

They are a pathetic shell of what they once were.

value-wise, I think it's worth it for a half a unit

5pt game.... Boston just needs to sort out the defense in terms of fouling and they have a shot

That combined with Boston 9/10 from the line makes it nice to see that NBA players can still shoot free throws afterall.....
Been horrible so far this season.

Oh well Boston down 7 at the half seems fair, obviously if they don't come out to get it in the 3rd they didn't deserve it anyway.

It'll be close at some point for sure, what happens after that

Game could be within 3 if Rondo and Allen stop with the carelessness.

thoughts on the second half?  celtics keep it close or do the thunder blow it wide open?  This game has played out like the last few home games with the celtics falling behind early.....

shooting has evened out in the second quarter..... game is pretty much even except for the 1st quarter run by the thunder..... everytime the celtics make a run, the thunder get a stop and score....

The pace favors a close game honestly bob, im on okc so i hope they break it open but the celtics play such a methodical and slow style that seems unlikely.

I thought Jermaine O'neal was retiring.

Celts will get closer in the game, halftime adjustments and pick up the defense. They always do in the 3rd qtr then either turn it up bigtime in the 4th or collapse.

Lately it's been colllapsing...

 

great start to the 3rd!!! DOWN 1.
