GARDEN PARTY

RAY ALLEN FOR THREE, what better start,
Stoudemire jump ball, JO showed heart.
Rondo got a poke right in the face,
What do you have to do to get a foul in our place?

It was a Q1 of runs, each team had a lead, 
Pietrus for three, kind of offense Cs need.
Factoid of the week, speaking of offensive yield:
'Melo's lowest season ever, 40% from the field.

Bradley's D, along with the heart of KG,
Toward the end Q1, KG for three!!
10,000 defensive rebounds, 10,000th that's right, 
KG, third since counting, made his tonight!

A Harvard player, 50 years since there's been, 
The Knicks have him, he's Jeremy Lin.
At last we see Rondo (puffy eye) and Bradley,
Watching their defense, gotta love them madly.

(An aside: things for the Magic not as grand as they'd dream,
For detrimental conduct Baby suspended from the team).

Knicks were aggressive, Chandler,  Lin, Fields and 'Melo,
Cs need more offense from that Pietrus fellow.
With defense by the Cs hardly part of the mix,
Cs at the half only down by six.

The whole game the Cs played five against eight, 
It's an understatement to say the refs weren't great!
Ridiculous calls every single game, 
Especially if you wear the Celtics name.

Wilcox, Bass doing well, KG looking for his shot,
The game is better when unselfish he is not.
Never underestimate Cs, they define hustle,
They'll roll on the floor, for the ball they'll tussle.

Tied at 79--as chippy as could be,
Cs took the lead on RAY ALLEN FOR THREE!!
Then RAY ALLEN FOR THREE, starting to score, 
Another smooth move, he shot back door.

Tight at the end, the Captain, that's P, 
Clock winding down, Paul Pierce? NO three!
Insult to injury, refs added seconds to the clock, 
Such good defense by the team run by Doc.

Woodson on the Knicks' bench, this is no baloney, 
He might get the job currently held by D'Antoni.
