This Friday the Thirteenth against the Raptors no Ray,
With ankle swelling he is day to day.
55 years ago, Heinsohn a rookie, not his prime,
Cs won their first NBA title--double overtime.
Three games, three cities in seventy-two hours,
The Cs will need their fountain of youth powers.
Raptors Johnson is tough, Anderson from NBDL,
The latter is 29, wants to prove he can play well.
Cs slow at first, then KG block, Bass shot,
Pierce showing the three point shot he's got.
Q1 Stiemsma's blocks, Bradley cutting to the hoop,
Pietrus is energetic, Rondo-Bradley alley-oop!
Q1 18% shooting for the Toronto team,
Cs end it up 7, cannot lose steam.
Raptors' Kleiza is tough, plays with true grit,
Johnson huge dunk--missed! Cs' Hollins did hit.
'Quis got some minutes, Pietrus for three,
After a long rest, mid Q2 came KG.
7-0 run for the Raptors til KG's hoop,
Cs can't drop to the level of this lesser group.
Raptors didn't show much effort, crowd wasn't in the mix,
Cs starters had rest. At the half, Cs up six.
Cs were outrebounded by ten in Q1 and Q2,
Raptors playing with energy, Cs have to, too.
Q3 Raptors went on a run, Cs sloppy with the ball,
Twice as many turnovers, then asleep they did fall.
Q4 it was Anderson and Johnson--who?
Cs just taking jump shots, forgot what to do.
Cs down 15, halfway through Q4,
Pierce for three, Cs need stops and score.
Pietrus fell hard, on his back not his head,
Cs working, 2:50 left, Raptors now 8 ahead.
18-4 run by the Cs, too late methinks,
Must be the Friday the Thirteenth jinx.

1983 31st DRAFT PICK: DOC RIVERS
7 years as a starter, one year averaged a double double,
Doc played for the Hawks, tonight wants to cause trouble.
Because of a swollen ankle, Ray we will not see,
But he'll travel to Toronto to start the B2B2B.
Surprise tonight, a few minutes from Mickael,
After his concussion, hope he's hearty and hale.
Without Ray, Sasha--more minutes he'll get,
He's a tough player and a three point threat.
Early turnovers for the Cs, Smith always wants a hoop,
Bradley coast to coast, from Rondo alley-oop.
Brandon Bass with a dunk (!!) that was very "loud,"
Pietrus came in, extra love from the crowd.
Rondo stepped up his play, to the hoop or with a pass,
Running the floor, shooting well is Brandon Bass.
To end Q1 the Hawks' offense slows,
On an elbow from Hinrich, Pierce a bloody nose.

"WELCOME TO INDIANA BASKETBALL,". Coach Norman Dale

...COMING UP ROSE-LESS
Not inactive--so off the bench is Ray?
Didn't talk to the media after the game yesterday.
Doesn't make it much easier, as everyone knows,
That the Bulls are playing without Derrick Rose.
An aside: Dwight wants no Van Gundy, no Otis,
He was booed in Orlando, hard not to notice.
As a guy and a player Avery Bradley's a dream,
Off the bench or starting, wants to help his team.
On D, Bradley at point, Rondo at the two,
Only 5th time Ray off the bench, hope he's not blue.
4:00 left in Q1 in came Ray,
On Rip Hamilton, just like back in the day.
Each call Pierce doesn't get, it's interesting to see,
How on the next play The Truth makes a three!
Two great defensive teams, not so easy to score,
To start Q2 the Cs are up 4.
Now quick forward is Ray, he's on Deng, Deng on Ray,
Early 3rd foul on Stiemsma means Hollins to play.
Apologies to Jack Black, love Bradley's Tenacious D,
Plus the improvement in his offense Cs are thrilled to see.
Cs are using the mismatches, the Bulls seem out of sync,
The crowd's quiet and restless, don't know what to think.
Keeping Bulls' score low, Cs up 11 start Q3.
Bulls came out aggressive. Did Bass hurt his knee?
Foolish play and 4 Cs turnovers to start Q3,
Walking the ball up, too slow, then a tech on KG.
Cs standing around--jumpers--forgot what to do,
Bulls got their first lead since it was 4 to 2.
Pierce came in, tried to get things going,
Bulls had to play no D as the Cs game was slowing.
Cs 11 point lead's gone, Bulls up 1 start Q4,
RAY ALLEN FOR THREE, we need him to score.
8:06 left, Bulls' largest lead, 5,
Cs must regain composure if they're to survive.
Marquis Daniels didn't play but he was there,
Mouthing the words appropriately to "Livin' on a Prayer."
Ray's three was a two, he's still doing his part,
Still solid, from the bench or with the start.
With the Bulls defense the Cs could not hang,
Bulls win, all we can say is Luol Deng...Dang.

Usually the foul's on Stiemsma no matter what he tries to do.
31-12 the Heat were outscored in Q3,
Rondo controlled the pace, 5th triple double has he.
8:30 left in Q4 no April Fooling,
"Ray's three" from the corner by Keyon Dooling.

At the end of the game big hand for Brad-ley.

Stiemsma drew a charge from Haslem, something new,
Usually the foul's on Stiemsma no matter what he tries to do.
31-12 the Heat were outscored in Q3,
Rondo controlled the pace, 5th triple double has he.
8:30 left in Q4 no April Fooling,
"Ray's three" from the corner by Keyon Dooling.
Uncontested dunk after four dribbles-- by Pierce,
Celtic Pride today, ALL the guys were fierce.
Austin Rivers was interviewed about his one and done,
He's very well-spoken, you can tell he's Doc's son.
Stiemsma fouled out, an important part of Cs D,
At the end of the game big hand for Brad-ley.
Today the Cs did not run out of steam
Heat worst loss of the season, Cs played like a team.
