Every
week, we look at the Big Three things happening in Celtics-land, good
and bad, and we rank them… Because society demands we judge things, and we're powerless to resist its demans.
On the way up
1: We're going streaking – Oh… the Celtics look old and slow. Oh… the Celtics look totally lost sometimes. Oh… look at who's got the most wins in the NBA.
2: Beastondo – Why won't that nickname catch on? Rajon is the league's assist and steals leader. Kendrick Perkins could have the highest field goal percentage in team history. Gentlemen… the keys to the future of the franchise are yours.
3: Groovin' -Kevin Garnett has taken 41 shots in the past week. He's missed 10. That is all
On the way down:
3: But he meant that stuff about your mother in a NICE way – Rasheed Wallace just broke a streak of 3 straight games with a technical foul. It's not the kind of hot start we were looking for.
2: Ya know… he IS the Captain – Paul Pierce has scored just 8 points in each of the past two games. He's taken a combined 17 shots. Yeah, we won… but how about running some more of the offense through your best offensive player, huh?
1: This is getting offensive – Against the Spurs, the Celtics gave up 20 offensive rebounds… they only pulled down 2. How much longer are they going to get away with giving up that many second and third chances?
