Game tips at 7 PM central time on TNT. Possible NBA finals preview. Who's watching?

Go Celtics!

Oregon/Oregon St is on tonight

I'll probably switch between these two games.

I'll watch!! In my opinion Garnett vs Duncan is the best power forward rivalry in basketball. They are slowing down but are still very good!!

Absolutely! There's been that rivalry for a decade now, and it sure hasn't gone away even though they are in different conferences now! Since KG was traded to the Celtics, Boston is 3-1 against the Spurs.

Now that I think about it Tony and Rondo almost cancel each other out as well as Manu and Allen when all are healthy!! I give the edge to Pierce over Jefferson. Wallace owns Bonner because of Sheeds post presence(even though he only shoots 3's) so win there for Celts. Bench goes to Celtics with House, Daniels, and Davis. My vote is the Celtics to win by 7 or 8 in the 90's. Ignore this if it makes no sense!!!!!

Tony is better than Rondo IMO...but, Manu isn't in the starting lineup, so...

Ray > Bogans
Pierce > Jefferson
KG = Duncan

And, Sheed doesn't start...so, it'd still favor Boston, but

Perkins > Bonner/McDyess (depending on who starts)

Both benches are strong, but the Celtics don't have Davis yet...but, I still give the edge to Boston with Sheed, Marquis and House over Manu, Finley and George Hill. Still, it'll be a great matchup, I'm sure!

Celtics on a 10-0 run, up 12-4!

[nadeau01_johnson48]

I'll watch until 9....Oregon/Oregon State is much more important.

[#50 Tyler Hansbrough]

Celtics up 25-15, end of the first quarter

[garnett_21]

Celtics up 39-32 now...KG has had a few nice passes and DEEP shots! What's new though, he's always had good range...it's really fun watching KG on a regular basis again :-D
