It just sometimes Green comes to play, sometimes he doesn't.Well, since January... 49% from the field for 9 points off the bench. Good month.That is a good month, but he had two months where he shot 41 and 42%. Sometimes he plays, sometimes he doesn'tyeah well everybody has to show up every night now. no more dogging it not earning that fat paycheck. I know, if the guys out there had been playing as hard and with as much focus and intensity as the are now all year we'd be a top 2-3 seed right now.Exactly.I'm a little confused how fans are glossing over the fact some Celtics weren't giving this effort before the injury.That's completely false.Bradley was giving you effort every game, Lee was giving you the effort every game, Sully was giving you the effort every game, KG was giving you the effort every game, Terry has given you the effort we want from him for a while (simply missing shots), Green has been off and on, but he's been quite productive in since January.Bass and Pierce are the only question marks for me, but there's a reason why the bench has been quite consistent this month with small dosages of KG inserted to balance the big man rotation out. Rondo's been giving you effort every game as well. If he's fair game so it the rest of the team. You don't think the guys are running harder on the break now, or moving around more/faster on offense, or showing more focus on defense lately? You haven't noticed any more energy than usual the last 2-3 games? Heck, even if you can't see it Terry actually *said* that the wings were going to run harder so they could play more in transition.Lol, rondo didn't give the same consistent effort as the guys the other poster named. Do you watch the games or do you just read the stats afterwards because that's how it seems with some of your comments.

I don't think it's floor spacing. It just sometimes Green comes to play, sometimes he doesn't.

But one thing doesn't go with the other.

I said the guys the poster named played with more consistent energy than rondo. I didn't say they didn't sometimes sleepwalk when rondo was pounding the ball for the whole shotclock. I also didn't say rondo never played with any energy. Hes just had more nights where he looked disinterested than most.You wanna talk about credibility, you lost that completely when you tried to say rondo played with energy every night. Anybody who watches the games knows that is far from the truth.

It's hard not to like this version of Jeff Green.Yeah. It's just hard at this point to pinpoint what makes Jeff Green play well and what makes him disappear. I don't have confidence on any given night predicting which Jeff we'll get.Maybe it's selective memory, but I do feel like he's had good games more frequently lately compared to the beginning of the season. It could be that he's still gradually working his way back from the heart surgery, and we can expect to see him become more consistent over time. But with Jeff Green, I'm not going to get my hopes up too much.
