Not to be Outdone...

An oh-my-gosh game is when the 11 o’clock sports anchors talk about your performance with such over-the-top exuberance that they barely have time to point out that, oh, by the way, the Celtics won. An oh-my-gosh game is what Allen had last night. His shots were clean, precise, as though computer-generated. He wound up with 23 points, but that’s just bookkeeping.

What Ray Allen was last night was other-worldly. And if he keeps this up - with Kevin Garnett and Paul Pierce continuing to shine, and with young Rajon Rondo [stats] continuing to muscle in on the press clippings generated by the Big Three - then we could be on the cusp of witnessing a winter wonderland of historic proportions by this team.

I love the Celtics as much as the next guy.

But let's postpone the histrionics until the day after Christmas.

OK?
