My goodness, Mike Sweetney was carving out Mark Blount and totally owned him. WHY ISN'T PERKINS PLAYING?!!! This is so ridiculous. I have been a Doc Rivers supporter all this time, but even I have to question his decision to omit Perkins from the game when Blount is looking so weak out there.
I don't care how much Blount scores. I counted at least 2 rebounds he gave up that led to an easy putback shot for the Bulls. And a countless other Sweetney scores that Blount just couldn't prevent.

I agree. The Bulls are dominating inside and Perk would help there. I just don't understand Doc's coaching. Perk wasn't in foul trouble and was playing very well and yet he sits and Veal plays and jacks up outside shots everytime he gets the ball.

I don't mind Veal being out there. He hustles to grab loose balls and he, at least, plays with some physicality--unlike Blount.

Delonte has a slight concussion and won't return. Banks starts the second half. Nociani hits a 3. Ricky hits an outside shot. Sure hope he is heating up. Chandler hits a jumper. Bulls break up the pass but it goes out of bounds off Bulls. Ricky misses a jumper. Duhon hits an open 3 from the corner. Pierce misses and Sweetney rebounds. Bulls miss and get an O rebound and Chandler hits an open 3 from the top of the circle. Doc calls a time out.

In a way, I'm glad we are struggling. I'd rather Ainge feel pressure to do something to spice this team up.
