Forget Mickey Rourke, Joey Graham is “The Wrestler”
Cuzoogle —
Sure the Raptors stunk it up for three quarters and lost to the Celtics but you have to give it up to Joey Graham for bringing some much needed fire to the floor. He and Brian Scalabrine were mixing it up and looked like they were ready to have one of those fake NBA fights. Joey had a huge block and ended the night with 12 points and 8 boards. I would love that exact game every night if possible from Joey G. Sure he got dunked on my Rondo but you are not going to have a perfect night. If he keeps stirring it up like that he will make a bigger comeback than Mickey Rourke and be known as the real Wrestler. ...
Celtics with Almost a 4th Quarter Collapse, but Ray Allen's Eight Triples Cripple the Raps

Celtics 94, Raps 88 Good effort. Going into the game, the Raps were the hot team and the Celtics not so hot. The Raps offense had been on fire, averaging 100 points/game in their last five. The Celtics on the other hand have been losers of four in a row. There were a few lineup changes today, Jose Calderon was back in the Raps starting five. For the C's, Kendrick Perkins was out and Brian Scalabrine started in his place. Raps started off the first well, Jamario Moon hit a three to put the Raps up 12-6. And then.....Jesus came out on Sunday. Jesus Shuttlesworth AKA Ray Allen started to drop some treys ...
Belated Game Thoughts

... Allowing a late 17-5 run didn't help.
If Ray Allen doesn't hit 8 three pointers, we might have lost this game.
If we don't play better, we might see another losing streak begin.
Perkins was out (sore shoulder), so that doesn't help. However, Scalabrine played well in an increased role.
Big Baby didn't. He was 1-12 from the floor in 30 minutes of play. At least he grabbed 11 rebounds.
Rondo had a nasty dunk
Scal don't back down from nobody
