Celts look good!

I had a chance to watch over half of the game Friday night versus the Nets,
and I came away very impressed with their tight half court defense.  I also
was very surprised (and happy) that Pitino didn't have them full court press
the whole game, like he did everywhere else that he has been.  He seemed to
have them to full court only once in awhile in the last half of the game,
and it seemed to work well.  Also, something that has been discussed a lot
recently is that if you shoot well, you will do well.  Even if you play
great defense, you still got to put the ball in the hoop more than the other
team!
