“Like the coach always says, we’re not going to have a problem scoring the ball, our biggest issue right now is the defence. We have to get better. We cannot afford to play four quarters like this, especially at home in front of our crowds. We have to keep working on that.”

DeRozan is signed with Toronto in the Atlantic Division through 2014, so the Celtics should be seeing plenty of him over the years — unless the Raptors trade him away like every other good player that goes through Canadian customs.
Toronto Raptors rookie center Solomon Alabi said Wednesday he's returning to Erie to play for the BayHawks.
“We couldn’t get any defensive stops,” said forward Amir Johnson.
“We’ll have to get Andrea touches but at the same time, DeMar’s going to have open floor to play with.”
The lack of shooting touch turned out to be a double whammy for the Raptors, who seemed to get far fewer calls from the officials than they normally would.
