Enough Exhibition

I hope everybody enjoyed last night's game. I certainly did. The C's came out like a blitzkrieg in the first quarter, implying to what startling heights this first unit could attain when things click. But that said, I've had it with preseason games. Even though this is a totally new team, and even though it is interesting to watch the jelling process - I am ready for the real games to begin. As the Fox pointed out last week, you can only gauge so much from Scal and Perk playing well in preseason. At the end of the day, these games mean nothing. We beat the Knicks by forty, big fucking deal. I'm sure Quentin Richardson had trouble sleeping. We simply have to start seeing these guys in real game settings. I get this antsy feeling every year, and thought it might subside some because of the mass changes this summer brought. But here it is anyway - five more exhibitions to go, and I can't wait for the real stuff to get underway.

Preseason or not, I was pretty shocked at how terribly the Knicks played. I mean, the Celtics certainly played well, but there were large portions of the game where things still looked muddled (as they should, since it's only the preseason). The Knicks, on the other hand, just looked abysmal. They seriously seemed like they didn't even want to be on the court. The craziest thing is that the organization is so dysfunctional that there's probably nobody even remotely concerned about this.

We think it has been firmly established in these first three games that Perk Is A Beast

this is what I'm saying, when all us celtic bloggers are reduced to this, it's time for the season to start.

Perk with the THUNDEROUS SLAM! And 5 fouls. Beastly.

Tim,

They give you six fouls for a reason: so you'll use 'em beastin' on somebody
