Celtics Blog: Just Shut Up!

The Denver Nuggets are a pretty good team.  They've got Allen Iverson... a tough little bastard who defies logic as he darts through defenses and scores among the trees.  They've got Carmelo Anthony... a pure scorer who is much like Paul Pierce and can score from anywhere on the floor.  They've got Marcus Camby... a human eraser who was one block shy of a points/boards/blocks triple double.

And they're all bitches.

Not just those 3.  All of them.  Its almost as if the Nuggets are under orders to bitch about every non-call They either got fouls called (they took 49 free throws to the Celtics 28) or they bitched about not getting the call.  I've never seen a team take twice as many free throws as the other team and still complain about getting screwed (pictured: actual foul)

Allen Iverson spends half his time running up and down the court looking like he smelled a 'post-binge drinking & fenway sausage' fart.  I actually saw him push off Rajon Rondo and then turn around looking for a call.

Come on Denver.. you're better than that.  Or... maybe you're not.  But you won last night... handing the C's their first lost of the year against a Western Conference team.  Here's hoping the C's take it out on Golden State tonight.

KG was rusty as hell after spending a few weeks away from running.  He admitted after the game to getting winded at the end.  Doc tried to preserve him for the end... and it almost worked.  Its just too bad that Ray Allen shot his wad at the All Star game (by the way... he got screwed of the MVP there). Ray scored 14 first quarter points... but then disappeared and only finished with 20.  Rajon Rondo was scoring a lot... but I'm not exactly thrilled with his 1 assist / 0 steals stat line. 

And once again... my man Leon Powe did a little work:  13 points and 11 rebounds in 21 minutes. 

Side note:  The luckiest man in America right now is Keith Van Horn.  Imagine sitting on your ass...retired for a year and a half..  and a team calls you out of the blue and says "hey... do you mind taking 4 and a half million bucks to spend a couple of month in New Jersey?"  Why the fuck should he get that much to do nothing?  That's why I'm proposing the "fan exemption"... let us fans get in on the act.
