Odd game. Bogus flagrant in the 1st killed our momentum and a bogus flagrant in the 3rd gave us momentum.

Since he got floor time. You do know that players need time to get their game going right??


I watched Vujacic in LA for years. He knows the triangle -- period.

He's shooting 51% the past 5 games.

He's the kind of guy you want on your bench.


He's a shooter and that's always been his game. He just needed to get enough game time to get adjusted back to this game. If he can keep it up it would be a big help. He actually plays better defense than you'd think to.

Vujacic, for what he brings to the team, is much more part of the solution than part of the problem . . .

No we don't

Yep. Knicks were up 9-2 when they got called for their bogus flagrant and celtics tied it up soon after. Knicks were down 59-53 when Celtics got called for their bogus foul and now it's tied again.

At least they evened out...

He is NOT a PG! No instincts for when to make the pass.

so you agree with my other thread then, that our guards suck

Gallo is NOT a PG, he is a better player than Jose and can run the triangle since it doesn't require a pure PG

Gallo is not a pure point guard, never has been. He doesn't have true pg instincts. However, he defends the position a million times better than jose and is not afraid to shoot.

Hopefully we won't see that lineup of Seraphin DWill Lance Sasha and Grant again this half!

No Breen had it wrong. Lopez had a off 3 sec called and then Bradley missed a jumper.

I disagree. I like how he is playing now but 2 or 3 good games does not erase 40 other bad games. We could have had someone useful in those games.

Minus Jose, the flow is quicker, and the back four defense is a little better

We need a real point guard sooooo bad. We don't have even close to a real one on our roster. Grant needs a ton of work so right now i can't say he's that guy.

he is afraid to shoot... he has passed open shots all the time...how many attempts does he have today

Exactly. I hope he turned it around bc we can use him, but you can't excuse how bad he's been up to this point. He started the first 10 games and was the worst starting sg in the league.

He's been useful in many other games. Hasn't been consistent for much of the season, but maybe he's finally found that consistency a little bit? He'd be a very valuable player if so.

Celts look like they are becoming unraveled and losing composure. Like it.

Had that been Jose, Thomas would have turned the corner on him

Fellas...we are dominating the boards tonight...even Gallo has 8 already!
