Road Woes


Tonight the Celtics look to end their road woes tonight in Game 4 against Cleveland. They got punched in the face in Game 3 and for the first time this postseason got blown out. Tonight is a big game for the Celtics. I don't think we have to do any changes strategy wise, it just comes down to more effort and more intensity. They have to rotate better defensively and that's all effort.
Pierce and Ray Allen have to play better offensively. They need to make shots. Pierce needs to go to basket strong early and by doing that that will open up things for Allen to get some looks at the basket. Tonight I think the Celtics get their first road win on the road tonight and go up 3-1. I think Pierce and Allen will finally play well, KG will be KG, and Rondo will play much much much better than he did in Game 3.


In the shock of the century, former USC guard OJ Mayo has been linked in allegations that he has accepted cash and other gifts from a sports agency. It was just a matter of time before something like this came out. The thing about situations like these it doesn't really affect the player. It affects the school most because they end losing scholarships while the player is off in the NBA making millions. ESPN did a big time piece on this whole situation and the guy that was giving Mayo the money pulled a "No comment" which usually means "Yes, I'm guilty" in the world. I'm interested to see how this thing turns out.
