Be glad you're not seeing more Sullinnger!

You'd be in big trouble if you were seeing more of him! BIG TROUBLE!

Ya, he is good. But as soon as Lopez comes in he goes silent. Notice that?

Man Portland. This is no way to close a game. under 4 mins and back to back sloppy turnovers.

 

[WhiteMamba]

Blazers sweep the Celtics on the year.

Blazers 112 Celts 104

Portland didnt look sharp closing this one out. But did just enough.

Lopez has 3 and a fraction more years of NBA experience than Sullinger. That has to make a difference.

 

[Brahmsian]

Celtics end up being the only 1 of 3 Boston pro teams to lose tonight.

Bruins won 1-0 in San Jose and the Patriots advanced.

Bye for now.

Sully will benefit from the addition of a solid center

My first time I have got to watch him for a full game this season.

I am impressed. Another year or two and yes, a Center and he can do his thing more effectively.

Boston has a very bright future with him on that team. All these draft picks, Rondo, Sully, and Boston will be right back where they belong in a couple years.

Nets trade I have maintained since day 1 was a fantastic move for the C's
