Daaaaaaaaaaaaamn

The Celtics completely schooled the Sixers last night. In every way, the C's dominated Philly, and coasted to an easy Gino-accompanied win.

It wasn't a terrible first quarter for the Sixers, scoring 16 points to the Celtics 22. But, nothing went their way in the second quarter. The Celtics started with 11 unanswered points to open the second, and finished the half 46-28, holding the Sixers to only 12 points off of only 4 made FGs. The Celtics pushed the lead even farther, ending the 3rd 73-47. By this point, it seemed that the Sixers were behind an entire quarter's worth of points, BECAUSE THEY WERE!

The bench finished off the Sixers in the fourth, pushing the final score differential to 102-78. Every Celtic who stepped on the court scored, Scalabrine suffering a vicious Flagrant Foul from Speights late in the 4th, but still contributing 4 points to the Celtic effort. A 180 degree turnaround from their last game, the Cs dominated defensively tonight, and made Philly feel the pain of the Championship spirit in Beantown.
