Celtics vs Clippers Preview



Tonight the Celtics go against Lob City and Chris Paul. There is a rival between CP3 and Rajon Rondo. We have seen Rondo and Paul go at it before when he was in New Orleans and I see it carrying over.

PF B.Bass 12B. Griffin 21.4
C K. Garnett 14.7 D. Jordan 7.3



The Celtics just played a really tough game against the Lakers who have 2 7 footers and now the Celtics are playing another team that has 2 good big men in DeAndre Jordan and Phenom Blake Griffin. The difference is, both DeAndre and Blake aren't as skilled offensively and can be guarded. Yes, Blake and DeAndre will probably have a couple of vicious dunks with the Celtics only having KG and Greg Steimsma as their only big men. But I can see KG, Bass and Steimroller playing their bigs tough and knocking their offense out of whack. Ray Allen and Paul Pierce should be able to roll over the Randy Foye, Mo Williams, Caron Butler trio on both offense and defense. But the game itself will come down to the Rondo/ Paul showdown, in which we have seen Rondo be able to really get after Paul in recent history.

The biggest factor will be how tired the Celtics will be after last nights tough game. I would like to think they have some energy and be able to pull this off. This is a complete homer pick, but I got the C's in this because I hate CP3.

Celtics 94-85
Tommy Award: Rajon
