Celtics @ Knicks Game 2 Preview


Everyone is talking about how the Celtics need to get KG going. It's true, but it's not the whole story. Listen, KG isn't what he was, he can give you some good games, but he is not what he is going to get you through these playoffs anymore. You know who is? It's Jeff Green.

Jeff Green had 20 points at half time last game, then he got tired and only scored 6 the rest of the way. Unacceptable, and it cost them the game. He needs to play aggressive all the time. They guy has the talent, he has wanted to be a key member of this team, now he is getting the chance and to be honest he kind of failed. He needs to step up. Imagine he he dropped another 15-20 points in the 2nd half? I believe he can do it, he has that kind of talent. If the Celtics suddenly have a guy that can drop 30 every game they become a scary team.

Garnett played in only five of the final 17 games of the regular season, my hope is that Game 1 was just him shaking off some rust. I do believe he will have a better night tonight.

The Knicks haven't held a 2-0 lead since 2000, and you can already hear some fear in their voices...

"Tomorrow we're approaching this game as a must-win," said Anthony, who scored 36 points in Game 1. "Here on our home court, we want to win this basketball game. We don't want to go back to Boston 1-1."

Sorry Melo, but the Celtics don't die easy, and I think they shake the rust off and take it to the Knicks tonight. Like I said from the beginning Celtics in 6.

Celtics win 92-88
Tommy Award: Green
Game starts at 8pm
