Without Andre Iguodala and Elton Brand, the Sixers were no match for the C's in New Hampshire tonight. Led by Ray Allen's 14 and rookie Semih Erden's 13, the C's destroy the Sixers 93-65 tonight. Shaquille O'Neal looked good in his first game as a Celtic, scoring 8 points and pulling down 2 boards in 15 minutes of play. But it was Semih Erden who really wowed and surprised tonight. The rookie from Turkey scored 13 points, blocked 2 shots and hauled down 5 boards. Marquis Daniels added 10 and 5 and Glen Davis 13 and 5 for a bench that looked pretty damn good. The C's now travel to Newark to face the Nets tomorrow night at the brand new Prudential Center. Tip-off is at 7pm. Here is a link to see the entire box score from tonight: C's-Sixers box
Tommy kept sayin he liked Semih's hands, which I thought was valid. I was pleasantly surprised. Score another well-done draft pick by Danny, this one a second rounder.
