Also your infallible logic strikes again, what does EVERY player do when someones about to dunk or get an easy basket? Oh that's right they foul them. Have you watched more than 3 minutes of basketball in your life? I'm surprised you even know who Red Auerbach is with how outlandishly ignorant some of your statements are.

House isn't diffusing any situation by putting his hands on McGrady, if you think that, refer to your opening paragraph.

Ok well maybe I am more pissed off at the fact that he didn't get called for it. Maybe that is why I got so pissed off at him. I know that people when they go up for the dunks, people foul them. I am not some stupid piece of shit that you like to assume I am. I have been watching and playing basketball for 11 years. I think I know what and what not to do. Like I said, maybe I didn't look at it as great defense, just kind of thought it was agressive for not getting a foul call. If you know what i mean. If had been called a foul, I probably wouldn't have been pissed off about it during the game.

And Eddie was trying to diffuse the situation, he just did it in an unorthodox manner.

If by unorthodox, you mean completely stupid, and without thinking himself, then yes, you'd be correct.

I'm tired of chasing my dreams. From now on, I'm gonna ask where they're going and just meet them there.

Ok I apologize for my stupid reasoning. But being a die hard Celtics fan, when something like that goes on, I normally take the side of my team. I apologize for my useless defense lol. I promise it won't happen again.

If they win 30 games this season, I will fly a Celtics banner over my usual Raptors banner for the playoffs.

Memphis winning 30 games is a possibility, don't think it will happen. But there is a possibility. Eastern Conference is going to be tough this year.

Just going to say that I am really happy that I just got tickets to Celtics vs. Hornets on December 12th, sorry just needed to get my excitement out.

Speaking of the Hornets, they were killing the Wizards 74-47 last time I checked.

I feel bad for the Wizards, there team is a walking Rehab clinc for athletes this year.

On the other hand, I don't feel that bad.

Barring injury or the best two weeks of practice of his life, Curry will not be a starter on opening night. Instead, Mike D’Antoni’s starting five appear to be set: Chris Duhon, Jamal Crawford, Quentin Richardson, David Lee and Zach Randolph."

Nothing goes right for Curry
