Well, seeing as I wrote that the Celtics should breeze through this one earlier in the day, I owe Bobcats’ fans an apology. The Bobcats controlled the game and the tempo throughout. There wasn’t a Celtic who played well tonight, so we’re skipping the grades.

Kevin Garnett only scored five points on 10 shots, so we can’t talk about him making history or anything of that sort. But, the silver bronze lining in this one is that Paul Pierce got some rest, at least.

Gerald Henderson scored 35 points tonight against Boston. This was the 5th time a player has scored 30 on Boston this season.

Instead of talking about how bad the Celtics were tonight, I’ll let twitter do that for me.

Forget Miami, the Celtics need to avoid the Bobcats at all costs in the playoffs

Celtics finished the 1st with Green, Terry, Crawford, DJ White and Shavlik Randolph. Latter three the 18th, 19th and 20th Celtics this year.
