Game 2 of the preseason took place in the Garden, and the home court advantage was in full effect as the Celtics thumped the Knicks 96-82. Perk led the Celtics in scoring with 14, and 'Sheed had an impressive 13 points and 12 rebounds. I wish I could say that he looked good doing it, but since this game was again blacked out by Directv, I have only a box score to go by. Unimpressive in the box score was Rondo's 6 points, 3 assists, and 5 fouls, and P-Dub's 4-12 shooting. But, hey, it's pre-season, which is as meaningless as the CW resurrecting Melrose Place.Up next? The Nets on Sunday at 1PM.
