BOSTON -- A very entertaining first half of basketball is winding down with UConn clinging to a 42-39 lead. The Zags cut the lead to one, 38-37, on a Jeremy Pargo three-pointer with just over 4:00 left in the half and now trail by three with 2:36 left in the game.

. . . With Thabeet on the bench, the Zags are having much more success scoring in the paint.

. . . Lucky the Pathetic Celtics Mascot is also here today. Not a big fan of that little leprechaun.

. . . Dancing Celtic Big Baby (Glen Davis) just appeared on the video boards. Dude's got moves.
