Clunky, Chunky Win Against the Celtics

Found February 29, 2012 on nba.com/suns:
PLAYERS: Ray Allen
TEAMS: Phoenix Suns,  Boston Celtics
What a difference a game makes! It’s hard to believe Suns-Celtics was even the same sport as Suns-Lakers. Whereas that game ebbed and flowed with excitement, this one clunked and chunked with exasperation. In case you’re not catching my drift, let me put it another way: The Suns, Celtics, and Basketball had a little triangular meet, with the Suns finishing first, the Celtics second, and Basketball a distant third. The Celtics couldn’t shoot straight and neither team could pass straight. The Celts missed four more shots than the Suns took in the first period, and sharp shooting All-Stars Paul Piece and Ray Allen wore out the rims with a combined 5-for-25 shooting. Not only that, Celts shot 32 percent as a team through the first three periods.

Comments from the other side - Cavs 2/28

 The Cavs fans, like many of the lottery teams, want to tank but their hatred of the Celtics overrides their desire for a better draft pick.  I'm always amazed at how much fans hate their own players.  It's one thing to criticize a player for a bad game or poor play, but these fans really hate their players.  I found it funny that they talk about how washed up KG is and...
