OT: Solid game from Kemba vs Lebron's Lakers in rout

[Travelman6]

This is special because it is the first time a Kemba-led team beat a Lebron-led team, as hard as that might be to believe. Though with how horrible the Hornets were and the fact that he only plays Lebron twice in a season, maybe not that hard.

Not his best game by his standards of course (because he is just THAT awesome) but a fantastic performance none the less from an amazing Husky, Kemba.

In 30 minutes he scored 20 points on 8-13 shooting (2-4 from 3), 7 assists vs 2 turnovers, 4 boards and 1 steal.

Overall 139-107 rout, really enjoying this Celtics team, they are so fun to watch with Kemba leading the way and just THRILLED he is finally playing on a winning team, where he deserves and we will see him carry the Celtics when the playoffs come.

Well said. Worried at the start but his unbelievable tip in after the steal seemed to turn things. Not his best game but solid and gets to enjoy today because he played a big part of the win.

Stat of the day.

Kemba was 0-28 vs. Lebron until last night.

Hopefully people can stop freaking out about the Cs. Everyone back healthy for the first time in weeks and they wreck the Lakers.

If the Celts can't get up to play the Lakers in Boston then there is something seriously wrong
Kantor is an absolute offensive board machine - too bad his D is so bad
Kemba still looks a little rusty but there is no concern with him at all
Brown and Tatum just keep getting better
Never a fan of the Hayward acquisition

The Hayward acquisition was 100% a love letter to Stevens. He’s a good player and is better than last year but will never be the same after his gruesome injury. I like him but he’s completely disposable.

Sounds like someone who didn't watch him much with Utah . . .
