Big Baby Saves the Day

What can you say about Game 5 of the Celtics-Magic series? Big Baby stepped up down the stretch when he had to, Paul Pierce made an unselfish play that most superstars wouldn't have with 2 seconds to go and really carried the Celtics for 3 quarters scoring 27 in 32 minutes despite the refs doing all they could to foul him out, and the Celtics made this a series in regaining home court advantage. I couldn't be happier with my Celtics, they've done everything I wanted them to do. Play with heart and defend their title despite all the injuries. I'm so proud of them. Let's hope they've got a little more in them for the remained of this postseason.



The Bruins also staved off elimination by beating the Carolina Hurricanes in convincing fashion Sunday night in Boston. The Bruins finally got back to the style of play that made them so successful this season. I really like where they are right now. Another do or die in Carolina tonight, let's see if they have what it takes.

By the way how was Scott Walker not suspended for punching Cam Ward in the face at the end of Game 5? It was one of the worst cheap shots I've seen. Hopefully the B's will use it as fuel on the ice rather than retaliate. They need to focus on the game at this point if they hope to come back. Let's go Boston.
