Celtics 124 Knicks 105: Rollin’, rollin’, rollin’, though the streams are swollen. Keep them dogies rollin’. Is anyone gonna beat these Celtics? Ever? Is it too early to call them one of the best teams ever? Will it still be if they dismantle the Lakers come X-mas? Gadzooks, this team is good.
Hawks 85 Pistons 78: The upstart Hawks are for real. The upstart Hawks just handled Eastern perennial power Detroit. Mike Bibby was gettin’ giddy in the zone. Made all six of his three-point field-goal attempts last night. Big deal you say? Who cares you say? I say that ties not one but two records. Ties Al Harrington for going 6-for-6 on three-pointers in a game for the Hawks. Ties Trajan Langdon for going 6-for-6 on three-pointers in a game against the Pistons. Two. Two for the price of one.
Big Bad Bruins 6 Blues 3: The Bruins juggernaut continues. Five straight victories. 19-3-1 in their last twenty-three. 24-5-4 overall, their best 33-game start since the 1929-30 season. Old time hockey. Eddie Shore hockey. No really, Eddie Shore was on that team. You know who’s on this team? Phil Kessel. Kessel extend his points streak to eighteen games for the longest in hockey and the longest in Boston since Adam Oates had a 20-gamer in 1997-98.
Devils 3 Flyers 2: Who Needs Martin Brodeur? Since losing his first two starts in place of the Devil’s Wallpaper, Scott Clemmensen leads all NHL goalies with eleven big wins. El Diablo! Dios mio! El Diablo!! Two wins more than the next guy. Two wins more than runner-up Miikka Kiprusoff.
Need More? Atalnta Hawks, Boston Bruins, Boston Celtics, NBA, NHL, New Jersey Devils, Scott Clemmensen
