Live Blog: Celtics At Raptors On CBC (Seriously!) November 4, 2007
Posted by TheHype in Boston Celtics, Live Blogging, Toronto Raptors , trackback |
0:02:2 - Walter. Ray. Allen. Wins it. 98-95. I’m taking a nap
0:04.4 - Terrance. Jerod. Ford. Ties it.
0:07.8 - They went for the best basket instead of the fast tie from a driving TJ. Shows how much I know… not much.
0:18 - Free throw time, and Kevin nails only 1 of 2… time to draw up a play of Nick Lachey.
0:22 - All those haters out there that still say Garnett isn’t clutch should see this game. KG is torching the overtime over a mighty good defender in Bosh. 92-88
OT 2:33 - 85-85 just as Ray Ray and Ford trade 3s and KG and Bosh trade hoops. Hmm, CBC might have to bump Rick Mercer if this goes on any further!
End of Regulation - Pierce was iso’d from beginning to end and had a shot he normally makes, but yay for us, another 5 mins of missed shots! HUZZAH!
0:31 - Pop quiz hot shot, you’re down 2. Bosh is hot right now, what are you going to do? Yes, that’s right, don’t you dare drive slower than 55MPH
0:52 - James Posey wins the Lifetime Achievement Award for flopping
1:38 - Going back to Bosh.. I don’t know why KG isn’t defending him 78-76
2:38 - It’s a ball game folks 75-74 after Kapono and Posey trade 3s and Bosh hitting FTs
We’re stuck on 70-67 after several turnovers. I’m stuck on Falling-Asleep
7:00 - I love Yahoo’s description of play-by-play “8:53 BOS - Bad pass by J. Posey”
7:52 - 70 -66, thank you 3 point arc
10:16 - This just in: Ray Allen can shoot
10: 30 - It’s 66-58 and I like to applaud the Dinos for listening and not even try to guard Bri-Scal. Clunk clunk clunk
4th QT 11:06 - Man, seeing Bosh go at Garnett and working hard to get the bucket… *tear*… that young pup is all grown up I tells ya
2:13 - Love the way the Celtics are passing the ball to the open man. But uh- tip to the Raptors, DON’T CLOSE IN ON SCALABRINE. when you have Eddie House open
4:33 - YES! Past the 50 point mark! Pizzas for everyone! 53-45 Cs
3rd QT 10:39 - KG, meet your younger self at the rim, Bosh. Rejected yo 40-35
Halftime: 38-31… let me reiterate; THIRTY-EIGHT TO THIRTY-ONE. I need a beer, or 10.
1:41 - I blame this horrible game on CBC. Peter Mansbridge, you’re on notice. 37-26
3:52 - Garnett and co. totally shutting down Bosh and Bargs, yeah, pretty hard to win when your stars don’t have any points up on the big board
6:06 - You wouldn’t know it, but grass is growing on my tv set this game is so slow 30-22
8:33 - The defensive stops here, some 3s dropped shots here (courtesy of the Dazzling Delfino) the Raptors cut it to 23-22
2nd QT 10:45 - Holy crap Scott Pollard is playing some basketball! That hasn’t happened since 2002!
End of 1st - 23-14 Boston and it still looks weird to see KG in green.
2:08 - Kapono is actually more than 3 point guy and a 98 Degrees member lookalike, case in point: denied a lowpost pass to Pierce and ran the court to get a dish from Ford to finish a lay up
4:11 - 16-8, the Dinos aren’t at their usual passibility, credit goes to the tight defense. But yeah, one-on-one isn’t Toronto’s game
6:54 - Rondo turns it over. Dude, you got 3 HoF by your side, that’s not how you get on their good side. 7-2 Cs
9:20 - Bargs’s footwork defies any sort of reality based physics. You can’t tell if it’s traveling or just magic
1st QT 12:00 - Since Doc Rivers is out with the passing of a family member, I’m looking at this game as one of those “win it for coach y’all!” from the Celtics
– Pre-Game: George Stoumbasdfabnababoulous goes over all the disappoints and the new found glory of the Raps. It might seem like a stereotype for one to associate “edgy”, “cool”, “Greek” with rock clothing, but George pulls it off. + 20 Canadian points to him (y’know since it’s worth more than the U.S. dollar)
Ah, the Crown Corporation up here in Snowsville finally gets to show some Raptor games for those farm hillbillies in Alberta (I kid I kid… no one watches basketball in Alberta when watching wheat grow is so much more interesting!).
Anyway, I jot down notes here when the game starts up in a couple of tics. And I’m doing it REVERSE style! BOOM!

[...] The f**king Hype Guy was right about the Celtics taking this one. Three games in four nights coming up. Grab the feed. [...]
This sucked ass man. KG >> Bosh, at least for now. Where was the double team on KG in OT?
It was probably hiding in the same place as the FG% was. Not pretty.
The guess could be that they wanted to stay home with Allen, Pierce and/or Posey… guess that all went out the window with that last second play.
[...] afternoon, but it’s true, we’re right there at the top. This game was just an anomaly. The f**king Hype Guy was right about the Celtics taking this one. Three games in four nights coming up. We want all [...]
