The line for the eye wash begins to the left.  You'll need it to wash the crappiest game you'll watch all year off your retinas.  That, folks, was about 48 minutes of pure crap.  The good news is, the Celtics came out on top of this pile of dung 86-76... making them the only winners in this mess. KG and Ray combined to shoot 8-26.  Sheed was 3-10... including 0-4 from 3.  The entire offense looked disjointed and slow all night.  Lucky for them, they were playing an already bad New Jersey team that was made worse by a million injuries and a player with swine flu.  A full Nets squad might have blown the C's out tonight.

Video evidence of a defensive lapse, starring Rajon Rondo

Here's the situation: 3rd quarter, Celtics down 3 and fighting like hell to get ahead of the Phoenix Suns.  Phoenix has the ball out of bounds. As the play starts, two players flare to either side of the court, clearing space underneath the hoop.  Phoenix is trying to get a play to the basket... which you can tell as both of these players aren't making moves for the ball...

ROBERT HORRY NEEDS TO STICK TO HOOPS

*Note to NBA....can the pregame festivities. It may be cool for the Super Bowl to pull that crap off....but not you. The Super Bowl can pull off crap like....I dunno...a 7-hour pregame show that has it's own pregame show. The NBA Finals are great...but they aren't at that calibar. I mean, just imagine if right after the national anthem, 50 Cent tramples all over the mound...
