GAME 11: CELTICS 102, SUPERSONICS 83
Celtics 102, SuperSonics 83
Recipe for a Sonic loss: getting badly outrebounded, having Rashard Lewis shoot horribly, shooting bricks from everywhere and beyond the arc, having Danny Fortson get into foul trouble. It just wasn't their night, and it's sad for me to think that a team that's being run into the ground by Danny Ainge just beat the Sonics, but the Celtics were overdue to actually hold a lead in the fourth quarter for once, and the Sonics were way overdue to lose, and shoot crappily in the process.
Peek at the boxscore: Ray Allen 21 pts/6 ast/1 stl (7-16 floor), Rashard Lewis 12 pts/5 reb (4-13 floor, 0-6 3pt), Luke Ridnour 3 pts/5 ast/3 stl (1-5 floor), Reggie Evans 6 pts/8 reb, Antonio Daniels 16 pts/5 ast/2 stl, Nick Collison 8 pts/4 reb, Danny Fortson 6 pts/4 reb
In the Jerome James Watch, JJ played a grand total of 9 minutes, and made one of the two shots he took. He ended up with two points and a rebound, using one foul in the process. Way to go, Jerome. What a great signing that's turning out to be, huh?
Of course, the Sonics, or any team for that matter, aren't going to win many games when they shoot 35.9% (28-for-78) from the field and 5-for-23 (21.7%) from downtown.
