Rondo definitely needs to be starting. He's playing incredibly right now, and Doc's doing the right thing by playing Delonte at the 2.
Now if only Doc will start playing Powe. He will need him tonight, as we go up against the Piston's big froncourt. Rasheed, Nazr and McDyess are very good big men and they will give Jefferson and Perkins a hard time. Scalabrine has been playing well, and I'm glad to see that. But that doesn't give Doc the right to forsake Powe.
I don't expect a victory, but I hope to see more positive signs.

Detriot has played done to the level of competition some nights and not handled their business...... IN reality we have no chance to win tonight unless they feel sorry for us.

Celtics are playing hard but Detriot is too much for them. It looks like Detriot is trying to take control of the ECF standings. THey are going into pre-playoff gear while the Celtics are stuck back in early season.

Any word on Paul Pierce's health? they just said pretty much what was in the paper. That his elbow was swollen and he was running a fever over 100 and they drained the elbow and they are giving him antibiotics for the infection. They did say that it wasn't related to the surgery he had in the offseason. They didn't know how long this would set him back.
