(Yawn).
The Heat and the Celtics played Tuesday night in Boston.
All of the main attractions were benched (excluding Paul Pierce) all for different reason. From the Heat, Dwayne Wade was out because of his finger, Chris Brown because of his leg and well, LeBron James...just for rest. From the Celtics, Ray Allen for his ankle, Kevin Garnett for his hip and Rajon Rondo for his back. Doc Rivers would of liked for Paul Pierce to sit out for the same reason as Lebron but Pierce told Doc he wanted to keep playing to gain a rhythm for the playoffs.
Pierce wasn't need for this game though. Scoring a total of 8 points the whole game.
Doc even saw that Pierce was struggling stating “Paul was just - you could see he was struggling, also struggling with spacing, too. I mean, he’s used to Ray and Paul and Kevin and those guys spacing the floor. He spun one time, he should have been by himself and three of our guys were in his way.’’
The game opened slow with Celtics not scoring the whole 6 minutes of the game. But surprisingly they won 66-78.
