Reposting what I posted in the comments on the front page under the front page game preview:
pre-game notes from Doc From Doc:
Scal will dress tonight but will not be playing. He is progressing but is still not ready to play, which is unfortunate becuase this is a perfect matchup for Scal. Last night, the Celtics would have went with Shelden regardless because the Cavs are so big
Big Baby- still has not addressed the team but according to Doc, “plenty of time for that”. Baby is not at the game tonight. Doc said he was dissapointed in Baby’s mistake but says hes still part of the team. also noted that parents get dissapointed with their kids sometimes, but they’re still part of the family. Baby is still part of their family. Has no idea what Baby’s fine is, or if there was one. He said he is no part of that and hasn’t had time to even think about it.
Had good words for Shelden. Find the player in him that was there in college. Great opportunity on this team. Starting to understand what is needed of him. Terrific elbow shooter and rebounder. Needs to learn the Celtic scheme (needs to be more of a help defender instead of sticking on his man)
Lineup at the end of the game last night, according to Doc is the best lineup at that time. Unless he needs Perk for defensive purposes. Also noted a three big guards lineup.
A lot of respect for Larry Brown as a coach. Notes how much attention to detail he gives to the point guard position. For anybody who didn’t know, Doc played for Larry Brown for a short time. He said he opened his eyes to the little things at the guard position.
Rondo has his hands full tonight with Felton and Augustine. Two different types of guards. Rondo has established himself as a guard that opposing guards measure themselves to. He is no longer the guard measuring his ability to other guards.
