The Luck Of The Irish - A Boston Celtics Journal

yeah i sent lefrentz to charlotte with 2 others for okafor and 2 scrubs. this dumped alot of salary and got me a good player that i inturn sent to orlando for howard and battie. i like the team just the way it is now and wont make any trades til the deadline when i try to trade for a draft pick or 2.

I was thinking of trading for Okafor because I am a big Huskies fan.

I will have the Pacers game up soon.

Or Hamilton? he went to UCONN didnt he?

Fourth Quarter Propells Pacers Over Celtics



After coming off a season opening victory, the Celtics looked to start the season 2-0, but first they had to go through a tough Pacers team.

After the first quarter the Pacers had a 10 point advantage, they led 32-22. Jamaal Tinsley was in foul trouble early though, commiting 2 fouls in the first 2 minuets.

In the second quarter the Celtics came back and ended up taking the lead 57-55. The Celtics were down by 12 points at one point. Paul Pierce had 16 points, 2 rebounds, 1 assist, and 1 block. He was 6/7 from the field and had a 3 point % of 1.000.

In the third quarter the Celtics maintained the two point lead tha thtey had. By the end of the quarter the Celtics were already in the penalty.

In the last quarter the Pacers pulled away and won the game by 10 points. The final score was 106-96. The Pacers came back from a 7-point deficit and ended up winning. They went on a 7-0 run to end the game. Jermaine O'Neal was the player of the game. He had a double-double.

I was thinking about Gordon, but with Banks and Payton at the same posistion I would have to trade one of them. And I don't know if I want to ship Payton away, and I don't think that the Bulls would except Banks.

Yea, Rip went to UCONN I wasn't even thinking about him. Good thing I post a dynasty, lol.

I decided to sim two games they were both wins. The first game was a 94-89 victory over the Knicks and the second game was a 106-96 victory over the Trail Blazers. From now on I am going to play a game and then sim one so I can get through the season quicker.

Bobcats Upset Celtics In 2OT



All of Boston was frowning when Paul Pierce went down with a leg injury with just 6:08 left in the first half. Pierce did come back, and he almost won the game for the Celtics in many instances.

With just 1:31 seconds left Paul Pierce tied the game up with a 3pt, but Justin Reed's last second shot didn't fall.

Even in overtime Pierce had a chance to win the game but he missed the jumpshot.

Finally with just seconds left in the second overtime, Pierce missed a shot.

In his Celtics debut Emeka Okafor had 8 points, and 2 blocks.

Thanks for checking in and for the comments. I think I did well in this trade too. Thanks.

Paul Pierce,55 points, wholly smokes thats impressive even in double ot nice dynasty. trade is alright, not too realistic. but if the huskies are your team i cant blame ya. you ever think about an all uconn team? gordon, hamilton,ray allen, emeka okafor, Jake voshkul? idk about big jake at center maybe im not thinkin straight about who you could put at center or power forward other than him

Thanks for checking in. I know I forgot to post this but towards the end of the game Pierce was the only one capable of scoring really. McCarty, Davis, and Okafor all were fouled out by the middle of the first overtime.

As for the all UCONN team, who knows. One trade may lead to another and before you know it I may have a lineup full of Huskies.

I think the trade is unrealistic..but its all good its your dynasty ..gj so far...so far I like the pics out of all the dynastys...they are really clear good job keep it up!

Thanks for checking in Future, just wondering, are you the same "The Future" from Madden Mania?

As for the trade, I know that the Bobcats would never trade Okafor but I couldn't do anything with LaFrentz and his salary was amazingly high, plus, I love my Huskies.

lol well like I said its YOUR dynasty do what yah want..thats just my feeling but its still good nonetheless

and yeah Im the same Future

Yeah, I know that is what you said but I was just saying why I did the trade.

hm.... nice stuff... good pictures too
i'm using the celtics in my fantasy drafted dynasty on the ps2 as well.

Nice trade dude, I've been following this one and its good to see Paul Pierce leading from the front. Good luck for the rest of your season.

Glad that you have been following this from the start. I never expected to get this much feedback because I was new to the boards. Thanks

your dynasty looks to be one of the best this year. you've got a devoted reader here.

just a word of advise from a fellow celtic dynasty user. you need to move the ball around more and find the open man. i noticed you only had 3 assits after the 3rd.

on another note, i like that you are starting walter. guy is my second best player right now(behind pierce) and i still got him coming off the bench after 8 games. i am trying to leave jefferson in the lineup but i might have to bite the bullet soon and let walter get the spot, he clearly has earned it. tell you one thing right now, if i ever use another dynasty i will trade for walter right away.

Thanks for the reply. Right now I am thinking that Pierce and Walter are the only ones who can score. I have to cut down on the fouls if I want to be succesfull.

C's Win A Squeaker


Okafor is looking good so far.

Tim Duncan vs. Emeka Okafor... Who do you think would win that match-up? Tim Duncan, the two-time league MVP, right. Think again. Okafor completed his second double-double of his career against the San Antonio Spurs. Duncan had a double-double of his own by getting 14 Rebounds and 25 points. Mannu Ginobilli had 26 points, the most out of both teams.

The final score of this game was Celtics 90-89. The Celtics won thanks to a slam by Walter McCarty with just 9 seconds left.

I simmed the next game against the Sonics. I won 199-91. The Celtics are doing good so far this year. Atleast in the dynasty
