- no matter what, the starting 5 of the Celtics are intimidating.

- celtics get more applause than the foreign laden Raptors

- is it just me or don’t the baskets look higher in Italy…

- to me, bargs looks thinner, not bigger.

- delfino could be the darkhorse.

- bargs has the hot hand…swish swish swish

- garnett to perkins under the basket is just typical of the MVP type player garnett is.

- bosh stuffs garnett onto his ass.

- refs calling a lot of travelling violations. No surprise that Violet Palmer is on the floor.

- Rondo is impressive. Good court vision, smooth stroke. He must be salivating thinking he gets to feed Garnett.

- raps 5/12 from 3 nearing the end of the half.

- garnett reverse stuffs….and screams.

- garnett outjumps Bosh and 2 other raptors below the basket and slams it home. Ahhh…some things never change in Raptorland.

- boston 43 - toronto 40 at the half

- raps shoot 38%, are 5/12 from the 3 and 5/9 at FT. Bargs has 3 fouls. Welcome to 2006…er 2007.

- garnett as a double double at the half.

- NBA tv commentators are trying to pay dues to the Raptors, but the love for the Celtics is overshadowing.

- bargs puts it on the floor against garnett. Nice move, draws a foul.

- bargs getting physical with garnett on the defensive end….but picks up his 4th.

- KG is definitely the star of the game, schooling almost every Raptor that they put on him.

- oh oh…pierce has his fadeaway going….

- would it surprise you if I told you the Raptors are getting beaten on the boards? thought not.

- Rasho with a nice block. I love Rasho. He’s my man.

- TJ feeling some hot fingers.

- Garbo has been nailed to the bench.

- garnett: 19 pts 16 boards at the end of 3.

- 70-68 Celtics at the end of 3.

- Tony Allen comes down on his hurt knee and limps a bit afterward, but is fine.

- Moon and Baston on the floor with 8mins left.

- Moon with a nice smooth outside shot. The commentators are all over Moon, love the guy.

- Baston looks as expected: a 10th or 11th man at best.

- Big Baby looks great on both ends of the floor….still Big, but moving well.

- juan dixon is working hard, trying to win it on his own.

- Raptors had a chance to win it, but Dixon’s shot is long.

- 2 more chances for naught.

- Boston wins 89-85.  Great exhibition game. Good crowd.  Looks like they enjoyed it.
