Finally, a thread where 3/4 of it isn't dedicated to blaming the refs for the loss. That gets old after awhile. This is a tough Pacers team that is going to put it together by the end of the season. I wouldn't want to face them in the playoffs. The Pacers have always given us problems ...

celticsgreen.blogspot.com 12/8/2008 — Ray Allen has one of the sweetest jumpers of any player in league history. He was really feeling it tonight hitting 7 of 12 shots from beyond the arc and finishing with 35 points, 2 rebounds and 2 assists in 41 minutes.

celticsgreen.blogspot.com 12/6/2008 — Have the Celtics feed, booo. Get to listen to homers all night. Back-to-back wins over the Lakers and Celtics back-to-back nights doesn't sound too bad.

This Is Why Ray’s Hot
redsarmy.wordpress.com 1/18/2009 — When the Celtics offense is REALLY humming, Ray Allen is really scoring. In the Celtics funk, Ray was ice cold. In the past 5 games, he’s been really hot.
