Now, to be fair, I just got done with presents and Christmas brunch, so I missed the first few minutes. Maybe something happened on the court that turned everyone on the Celtics and Magic into members of the Charlotte Bobcats. But if not that, then what’s going on here? These guys are good on defense, but not that good. Look at the numbers:
Magic And Celtics: Are These Teams Drunk?
Team FG %
Orlando 9-33 27.5%
Boston 9-24 37.5%
Oof. Boston’s numbers are inflated by two lay-ups in the past minute, by the way. The teams have also combined for 25 turnovers. COME ON! Stan and Doc, do you guys know this is the first time millions of Americans are watching NBA basketball this year? You do, right? Let’s loosen the reins a little bit!
Whether it’s the defense or the mid-day start or... whatever it is, let’s hope Boston and Orlando can get this figured out. So far, the highlight of the afternoon has been the new Charles Barkley commercial with Dwight Howard.
“I don’t run, because I get tired.”
“I don’t lift weights, because they’re heavy.”
