Nets beat Clippers in OT last night for 4th straight win. Kris Humphries has been a monster on the boards and will need to be contained. Lopez appears to be getting some decent post moves that remined me of McHale post moves... -

The dreaded "Back to Back". Can it be overcome? -

I'd be happy just with a win man. Second night of a BTB, need I say more?
No way the Nets will be held under 60, not that that would be of any importance. -

The Nets are trash. Twice as many losses than wins. I wish the west had as many teams under .500 as the east does. -

Celtics starting to put it all together. Lots of time for the subs tonight and the bench delivers so that the starters can close it out in the 4th quarter.Ron plays "ok" and KG plays huge. Paul and Ray do their normal thing (18pts each). That's the script. Watch it unfold. -

Green, Krstic ("Curly"), Arroyo, Davis and Pierce finish out the quarter in fine fashion after a sluggish start by the starting unit. Garnett started off on fire. Good to see. -

Refs are killing us with missed calls and calls against the C's. I just don't know what to say about Rondo tonight other than it has to get better. -

If Rondo and Pierce can start to make some shots, we'll be ok. Rondo's shot looks absolutely horrible. He's trying his best but his shots even "look" like they have no chance of going in from the time he releases it. -

rondon't: only 5 free throw attempts in his last 12! 0-6 tonite with 3 turnovers with questionable defense.. no 10 assist games in his last 4... whats the point of having rondo on the team right now? -

Rondo is leading the nets to victory, the guy needs some games off , he is trying tonight but looks lost. -

Rondo looks like an appropriate candidate for a heart transplant.
In an emergency, do not resuscitate.

I dont know... the more I look at ROndo playing the more Im starting to believe there may be something more to this.
Hes not pushing it hard on offense, going 1/2 speed almost always... getting brushed off easily on weak picks..
He seems to be deteriorating before our eyes... could it be hes just played too many minutes and his body is shutting down?? I know I didnt want to hear the "hes tired" stuff but wt h else could this be? -

I wonder if Rondo is still feeling the effects of that pick he ran into in the first minute of play. I know he's been off of late, but so far tonight he's got nothing going.
Green got screwed by the no call on the goal tend and there were several non calls on Nets fouls. Krstic and Davis have gotten hammered underneath.
This game looks eerily similar to last night's. Thirty-eight at the half (vs. 39 last night). I'm looking to the second unit to bring this one home again.
