There's clearly something wrong with the way the Celts are approaching games all of a sudden. It's like watching Roy Jones Jr., the great, seemingly invincible boxer, suddenly get old one night- virtually without warning- and become a foil for younger fighters. The Celts continued to look old until the end of the third quarter, as you said, and were damned lucky to win that game against a depleted Warrior squad. I am not looking forward to Friday's game at all. I'm really afraid of what Orlando might do to the Celts, even though they have injury problems of their own. Hope I'm wrong, but the Celts are just going through the motions. Sharkey – that was an absolutely perfect description of the game.
