... some guy with a green jersey, as is normally the case? "It will be interesting to watch the film to see what we didn't do," said Ray Allen, who was charged with guarding Johnson, but more often than not was running into Mike Bibby picks when the clear-outs started. And that's what they were. This wasn't Hawks coach Mike Woodson calling plays. This was Johnson taking over.For more Celtic-centric blog reaction, click here. Marc J.

Celtics vs. Hawks: Gang Signs; Refs Shoved?
Published 4/29/2008 by Marcel Mutoni at SLAM Online
... I didn’t even know that the Bloods had a gang sign. And since I have no idea what to make of the video evidence, I’m simply going to assume that Pierce threw on a red bandana shortly thereafter. (DeShawn’s latest attempt to become the most loathsome player in the League can be seen in all of its glory here. Make sure to keep an eye on the score as Stevenson throws away $25K.)

Published 4/29/2008 at Ball Don't Lie
A look around the league and the web that covers it. It's also important to note that the rotation order and starting nods aren't always listed in order of importance. That's for you, dear reader, to figure out. C: Hardwood Paroxysm. 'Going nova' — v: To accelerate your game in an explosive manner, to the point ... PF: The Globe.
