Celtics played stellar defense all night.  T-Mac was bottled like a genie.  They played great defense on out pick and roll and they switched great on our screens that we like to do.  it also didn't help that he had horrible spacing either.  On offense, that Powe dude off the bench was the X factor.  He came to play.  Of course we had no answer for 'the big ticket' or Pierce. 

With that being said, T-Mac, I know u been trusting your teammates on this streak.  But in a game like this, you have to take over like I know you can.  This game would have been a lot closer.

Haven't had much of a chance to see Kendrick Perkins play, as we dont see the Celtics much, but he looks really good! Seems to be a great defensive player!

If you just look at his stats, it wouldn't appear that Perkins plays a big role in the Celtics' success.  When you watch him play, however, you see just how valuable a player he is to them.  His interior defense is huge, and his hustle play and ability to clean up the scraps down low are important as well.  He may never average 20 points a game, but the Celtics are where they are today in part because of his play.

As for the game itself, the Celts made the Rockets look pretty average.  Keep in mind that this was the second game in two days for the Celtics after a hard-fought win over the Spurs the night before.  The streak was impressive, but I still find it hard to believe that the Rockets are good enough to advance in the playoffs over one of the top-tier teams.  Hopefully they can prove me wrong.

    • Brewster….lmao. Watch that every time it’s on.    Great post. 
    • A few Board of Regents agree for sure. Some administrative changes were based in large part on those moves.  Sam Houston is the only one this remotely did any service and of course they moved on as well. 
    • The greatest point on all of this, and exactly what makes it a great day in SE Texas is the commercials are over!!!!  Phelan wasn’t all bad, Covey wasn’t all bad, but by the end of it I would have voted for Brewster’s “None of the above!”  Politicians serve their own interests and everyone’s politician is bad (except for theirs of course).  I personally am for: 1) Higher fuel prices, 2) More taxes and restrictions on private property owners, 3) Cancelling student-loan and even credit card debt, 4) Covid restrictions (bring back masks) 5) Giving more tax money away to countries at war (except Israel), 6) Tearing apart the nuclear family 7) Supporting college kids to protest anything and everything they want with no consequences, 😎 Higher and higher food prices 😎  Go Biden/Harris - just MASA (Make America Soft Again), Beto for a high-cabinet spot.
    • Thanks for the info, I didn't check the primary vote count.  I was posing that, based on anecdotal evidence, many who did not vote in the primary showed up for the runoff, and apparently voted for Phelan.  My next door neighbors were two that voted runoff only and voted for Covey, so it went both ways I guess.   The Houston Chronicle posted quotes from Covey accusing many Dems of voting in the runoff.  Obviously if they were able to vote in the runoff then they didn't vote in the primary, unless the voted in the Rep primary to begin with of course. .  "Covey’s campaign released a lengthy statement after the results came in, calling Phelan an “Austin swamp creature and King of the Democrats.” The campaign accused Phelan of courting Democrat voters in Jefferson County to bolster his early vote numbers, but Covey did not say he would seek a recount." Anyway, it looks like it's a done deal, until November. 
    • WooHoo, the RANGERS win today 6-1 and win the series with arizona. 1st series win in the last 6. Maybe things are starting to change!!!
