Celts lose to Hawks 97-86, didn't see this one so I don't know what went wrong. But it seems like the Hawks came out and played a better second half.

Just like the Lakers-Nuggets game, but the Lakers didn't even show up for the third quarter.... Eight points in the entire quarter???

Celts lose to Pacers 113-104. I'm getting tired of this "tired legs" excuse, which they seem to be using after every loss.

The Celts probably do have one of the oldest starting fives in the NBA...

Lakers fade in the second half for the second straight game, losing to the Rockets, 101-91.

Come on, we're ten games into the season and you're tired???

EDIT: Lakers were out-rebounded 60-38, even though the Rockets had no player taller than 6-8.

No effort, no heart, no win...

I think we're the fourth oldest team. The thing is right before the start of the season someone said the beginning was going to be tough because there are a lot of games over a short span. But it seems like the team is using that as an excuse, especially since we easily beat Utah after a three day rest. But I don't buy into the excuse because everyone knew the schedule beforehand and it's the players (and trainers, to an extent) responsibility to be in shape. It's not like we're the only team playing games on consecutive nights.

I gotcha.

I feel the same way after the Lakers got beat down by the Nuggets after routing the Suns the previous day...

Lakers defeat the Pistons, 106-93... Lakers tried to blow the lead in the fourth, by taking their foot off the gas.

Kobe scores 40 or more for the 100th time in his career.

After days rest Celts beat Golden State 109-95. On friday, what should be a good one, against Orlando.

They weren't back-to-back games, they had last played on Saturday against the Pacers. They have today off and next game is tomorrow.
