Sleepless Nights

There are a few tired eyes in Boston this morning. Late last night, the Warriors dropped the Celtics 119-117 in what was possibly the most exciting game the C's have played this year (particularly if you're a Warriors fan). This one went past 1am ET, and ended on a mind-boggling, heartbreaking Baron Davis jumper as time expired. Paul Pierce had hit two free throws with 6.5 seconds left, and Tony Allen's lockdown D seemed destined to send this one into OT until Baron did that thing he tends to do.

KG was much better tonight, if still a bit tentative, going for 17 and 15 in 31 minutes of work. Ray Allen poured in 32, and Pierce added a nice 23-5-5. Tony Allen played big as well, chipping in 18. Not much you can say about this one; it was wild throughout and, predictably, ended wildly as well. It also struck me as rather terribly officiated. This is only the second time the C's have suffered back-to-back losses this season, and given the nature of the defeats it's been tough. I don't know, there's probably other stuff worth commenting on but I'm seriously sleep-deprived. Things don't get much easier with Phoenix on Friday, either, nor any earlier.

yeah, talk about sleep deprivation,i'm feeling it. its hard to get too down about these last two games, hopefully the tide will turn...it might just take a few calls.

Sleep deprivation?

Did Jeremiah have a game out west?

Hard to explain Rivers, an NBA "coach" being the only human being in the universe who didn't know Davis was going to take the last shot otherwise.
