What would you rather watch:

A blank screen or Gary Tanguay and Donny Marshall at halftime?

The blank screen would be more informative.

This Rondo + Pierce + Bass trio hasn't produced for Boston today.

Problems in the starting lineup.

A problem tonight. But in general I like the rotations / roles on the team. I'd keep the starting lineup intact a while longer.
I wonder if that Wilcox for Bass swap would give that unit more of the balance it needs.

Been saying it since last season, glad to see you coming around to the idea :P

We need GREEN back in the GAME..Pierce TOO SLOW
Yeah, too slow up and down and too slow with his decisions. No fluidity.

I liked what Jeff Green was doing better. I would Pierce a quick hook in the third if isn't doing better to start the second half.

It's really a joke that Lin gets more calls than Rondo....like really
Lin looks for contact (offensively) more than Rondo does.

Exactly.

It was in the thread I posted the other day.  Rondo plays passive and lazy during the regular season to protect his health.

I think he avoids contact, so he doesn't go to the free throw line to brick shots. That is the single flaw that really compromises his game. If he had confidence at the line, he'd be a monster.

Ohh, that is a nice idea! And keep Sullinger on the bench so that there is a weapon in the front court when KG sits.

Right on. Let Sully keep improving and take over the starting 4 spot. If you can trade Bass for Robin Lopez, Dalembert or Koufos/Mozgov+Anthony Randolph this team is set for now and the future. Don't trade the young pieces, their value will only get higher and higher.

That said, the Jet/Lee/Green/Sully/Garnett unit is playing great. Loving it!

Go Celtics!!!

Sully is not looking like ROY but MVP of the team.

Eventually the bench will play more min than the starters. Sully, Lee, Green trio have been phenomenal

Can Sully get 20-10 tonight?
When you lose, the easy part is to see who gives up. Giving up is very simple. You basically take your stuff and walk away. To continue to work and to continue to compete is one of the most difficult things, especially when you really don't have anything - KG
