Someone Call Bill Walton

There won't be any chest-thumping, fan taunting, or boastful proclamations at the end of this West Coast trip.

No defense and no rebounding in the first two games was followed up by a turnover-ridden and poor-shooting performance in game three. Even the silver lining to the dark cloud of the first two games--the return of Ray Allen's shooting eye--disappeared in game three. KG, who earlier in the season often appeared to have an unblockable jump shot, now seems to occasionally encounter trouble shooting over players his size or slightly shorter.

The party is not over.

It's still only February.

But somebody has definitely introduced a few tainted substances to the Celtics 2007-08 bash.

Maybe somebody should call Bill Walton.

He ought to know what to do in these situations.
