What the crap!?

CELTICS LOSE TO CLIPPERS, PIERCE DISLOCATES FINGER SEVERAL TIMES, NO SCALABRINE = BIG NIGHT FOR ZACH RANDOLPH

When Zach Randolph put in a garbage putback in the final minute off of a typically horrendous set play for the Clippers, I missed Brian Scalabrine. Scalabrine, a world away getting neurological tests, heard a thousand voices scream, and then suddenly fall silent. We all know, it's just a fact- that if Brian was there, Randolph would not have made that shot and the Celtics would have won. Why? Because Brian would have been softly humping Randolph in the post the entire game, and Randolph would have been wheeling back to punch our doughy hero in the jowls in the final seconds instead of calmly laying the ball in to give the Clips the lead.

This was one of those games where you watch it and then get pissed off that you wasted the time. First of all, the game starts at 10:30 at night, so when it's over you go straight to bed- pissed- and then go through the list of things you could have done instead of watch the Celtics botch a game against the Clippers. The Celtics shot a nice percentage from the field and hung tough on the glass, but our boys were turning the ball over as rapidly as Steve Novak was chucking up bricks for the Clippers. Steve Novak only shoots. He plays basketball like somebody that's confusing the "pass" and "shoot" buttons when playing NBA Jam on an alien controller. What a goof.

In the end, however, the Celtics are going to lose some more of these games this season. For whatever reason- and I'm sure everyone has their own theory- the Celtics are much more likely to have sloppy execution on the offensive end this year. This game featured 21 turnovers for the C's, meaning they turned the ball over roughly 25% of the time on offense. The Clippers had 11 turnovers and 17 more shot attempts.
