We beat a healthy Celtics team at home without Brandon Roy.

Blazers= soon to be 1st place in the division
 
To be fair though, they don't have Nene, and are VERY lacking in bigs after Nene is gone.

To be fair, the Celtics are without KG (and we were without Brandon). :devilwink:

Yes, this completely explains being down 25 points at home to a Boston team playing without Garnett. :confused:

EDIT- 33 points by the time I posted this.

It doesn't, but the team honestly has no defense against Rondo's penetration without Nene. I mean, they are starting Johan Freakin' Petro.

Rondo is making them pay, and pay hard.

What do the Blazers have anything to do with this?

I'm not trying to make excuses for Denver, just pointing out that the loss of Nene hurts them badly. They'd likely still be losing with him, but not by nearly this large a margin.
 
Oh btw, Denver actually blew out Boston at home.

Nice, that puts you right up there with the Knicks and Bobcats who also beat us in that same week.

Help me out for a second. I'm trying to find out whether the Knicks or Bobcats were missing an All-Star player who is the heart of their team?

The Knicks and the Cats don't even have an all-star player...

My point is that just about anybody could have beaten us during that horrendous stretch, and did.

Not necessarily something I'd be bragging about months later..
 
One of the funnier things I've seen this season:

down by 26 pts late in the 3rd quarter and the Nuggs' PA is playing the "defense" chant

How long is Nene out? He seems to be their most important player outside of Billups.

Melo is productive, but oddly doesn't seem to affect them much when he's there or not there.

It was a horrendous stretch BECAUSE we beat you. Not the other way around.

Even though we played without Brandon Roy and you guys were healthy with no excuses but "we lost to other teams too" ???

Gee, would this mean that Oden's fouls aren't completely the PGs fault on penetration?

I don't know who said they were completely the PG's fault. They are a combination.

Who cares.

Celtics are the best and always will be. Learn to play defense.

Celtics > Cavs > Magic >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> Lakers

Von Wafer > Kobe

Thus you fail.
