OF (GAME) THREE I SING


In this series, one thing Doc's said very much, 
On every offensive play KG must get a touch.
During the pregame with Donny a sighting of our pal,
The guy Tommy Heinsohn loves, tho he's a Bull--Scal.

Hollins was an accomplished high jumper in the PAC Ten,
As an NBA player needs that inner leaper again.
When the Cs won the tip the fans got loud,
Iguodala's steal and score ignited the crowd.

Sixers started juiced up on a 10-4 run, 
Bass finally hard to the hoop four minutes gone Q1.
An 8-0 Cs run got them a two point lead,
Young and Holiday getting what the Sixers need.

Pierce hard to the hoop, smacked the glass after the dunk, 
Twice! Just he and Rondo no shooting funk.
Pierce: more points than Game 2 just in Q1,
Ugh, Williams for three when the Q clock was done.

When Pietrus is in this building in his mind  he must see, 
His concussive fall--hooray, he made a three, a three (later a three).
Q2 Cs 28-10 run, all of the Cs are scoring, 
Ray, Dooling, Pierce, Bass, Rondo,KG--not boring!

For a time in Q2 the Cs could do no wrong, 
11 point lead at the half, Rondo finished strong.
The beat goes on for the Cs to start Q3,
KG is still hot, Pierce (cheap rhyme) for three!

Few Cs turnovers, love Rondo's coast to coast,
He, Pierce and KG are scoring the most!
Rondo's hitting his bank shot it looks like at will, 
Fast up the court, seems everyone else stands still.

All the Cs were involved, even Hollins was in it, 
They know it's important--this first away game to win it.
A moment of glory for this Sixers group,
On a Williams to Young alley-oop.

Cs dominated in rebounds (!) and points in the paint, 
Same team as games one and two? Oh, no, they ain't!
Tonight the Cs caused the Sixers nothing but trouble, 
Rondo, Pierce and KG each had a double double.

To get back home court advantage the Celtics did their part, 
Love the resolve of this team, they play with all heart.
