I often wonder what opposing teams, their beat reporters and bloggers
are saying about the Celtics after playing the Celtics. Here's a dose
of 'enemy chatter' from Miami.
While I think Rajon Rondo is a bit of a turd for his taunting in the 4th
quarter, I have to give the man props for his sick ball handling
skills. Combined with his speed, I can see why people in Boston as so
excited about this guy.

Taunting? I must have completely missed it.
Miami came into the final quarter with the game tied, which means that
our boys had the opportunity to steal a win in Boston and all they had
to do is win just 1 quarter. A very reasonable task, if you ask me. A
fun exchange with the Heat down two; Daequan misses a wide open trey
and then Boston comes right down and Ray Allen drills an equally open triple. Ahh, to have a guy who could consistently hit outside shots. Wouldn't that be nice?

Ray Allen consistent? I jest…
For stretches of the game, Boston simply dominated the boards and
seemed to get offensive rebound after offensive rebound. The Celtics
were relentless. They held a 41-31 edge on the glass, including a 15-6
advantage on the offensive boards. Heat players didn't use their ailments as excuses, but Jermaine O'Neal
and Udonis Haslem were playing with bad backs and Michael Beasley was
limited by a knee injury…

It was refreshing to see the Celtics crash the boards. Spare us the injury excuses. KG is playing on one leg, and Sheed has been battling lazy-itis all season.
