Celtics Notes
The Celtics are coming off a win in Boston over the Raptors by 7. The Celtics core of Paul Pierce and Ricky Davis both scored 26 in the win. The Celtics main man Pierce is averaging 25pts, 8reb, 5ast. Ricky D is at 20pts, 5reb, 6ast. Rook Gerald Green is having a hard time getting off the bench.
Cavaliers Notes
The Cavaliers are rollin strong on a 7 game win streak, the hottest team in the NBA! LeBron James and Larry Hughes are coming off monster games in Philly, LBJ triple-doublin with 36, 10A, 11R, and Larry Huge with 37, 5 threes! This was the first game where both our studs dominated together, providing hope for Cavs fans that this dynamic duo will take the team deep into the playoffs.
Overview
Its always a spirited game when the Cavs play the Celtics. Ricky D returning to C-Town is always a good time, have the fans forgotten about his 'black hole' comments? Will he be booed? I for one like Slick Rick, and i enjoyed watchin him as a Cavalier. And then there was the Spat, when Pierce spit at the Cavs bench during preseason last year, and a scuffle outside the locker rooms. Some say we have a 'rivalry', but I believe Pierce said rivalries start in the playoffs. And the Celtics arent even in the same class as the Cavs right now.
The Celtics will get SMOKED! STOMPED! All the leprechauns in Ireland aint gonna help the poor Celtics. They are not good enough to challenge the Cavs at home, where we have been unstoppable! The Celtics will find they are not lucky, and will feel like punks. LBJ and Larry will prove to be a far superior core than Pierce and RickyD. And Z will light up the Celtics frontcourt. The win streak hits 8 yall, a win by at least 15 Cavs fans, it's an HPD guarantee!!!
