We saw the Celtics beat the Nuggets 105 to 89 in our 6th game of the season (we’re 5-1 in wins attended thus far and the C’s are 17-4 overall).
It was a weird game in consistency of play quality, but also because we had to go late. We went first to a work party and then caught a cab to the Garden and made it before the end of halftime. We were glad not to miss the game, because it felt like we hadn’t been to one in so long, but going late is not in our style book. We feel pretty lucky that we work/live so close that we can be there in time for tip-off on a regular basis.
We were sad to note that once again a team’s star player sat out for our game – no Carmelo Anthony. That’s 3 games/teams/guys now, and always a bummer.
The highlight of the night was 28 points for Ray.
Gino was making his way out – but the PTB didn’t find it appropriate after double Ts were awarded to Baby and Nene. So then we had to wait until the end of the game. It’s always weird when they show Gino when the game is OVER – obviously the game is “in hand” … it is over. Oh well. Here are a few pictures from Game-Over-Gino-Game-Really-Over.
