FINALLY!! Sounds like Pierce hit some big shots, and loved the break-away dunk by Green. Back-to-back close games vs Dallas and SA on the road, capped off by an historic win!! Very nice confidence boost for this team.

Rondo was incredible. Our point guard had 14 REBOUNDS and 6 assists and was a big reason we had a big lead early. So how does Doc reward that great play? He sits him for the 4th quarter. He very much deserved to be out there at the end. He played very, very well and should have been out there to finish the game. What does that do to his psyche? He did a great job on Parker and when Doc sat him is when Parker started to take over. We should have had Perk in there at the end as well and it never would have been as close. We won tonight in spite of doc's coaching and not because of it.
I honestly don't want to trade any of these kids away. We have stayed with them this long and I really want to keep them together. We have the makings of something very special and with a high lottery pick to add to them, I like what we have.

I don't see Doc's fascination with Ray. Don't see him being a part of the rotation. He is a short spot-up 2. Already have West and Greene (and Allen and Wally) at that position.
Rondo with 12 rebounds? Wow!

What does that do to his psyche? I bet it hurts his feelings. I don't understand why people are so quick to blame Doc and coddle these players like they are fragile little boys. I understand Rondo should have been out there, but poor Rondo. If Rondo is a good player this will just make him want to play more and keep improving. If it hurts his feelings and he rolls over and dies he shouldn't be out there anyways. I dont get it. People are complaining that Doc is forcing Pierce to play and is going to hurt him. It's the same thing. Pierce is a warrior man. Get over it. He's a "basketball player" and a good one. He should play if he can. If he doesn't want to and really can't he won't. Doc is not forcing him to do anything. I don't mean to be an !!!GREENIAC!!!, but it's stuff like this I just find funny. Anyone that has ever played sports really should understand this stuff. Enjoy the win. Stop complaining about Doc. I guess i'm just not like that. I'm enjoying watching thsi team and I support all of these guys, and it just sucks coming here and reading people nitpicking all the time. It's the same thing with listening to WEEI and the media in general. I don't even listen to WEEI anymore because those guys drive me nuts. I understand Doc does some silly things, but it's like everything he does is the wrong thing. Of course Doc has nothing to do with the emergence of Al Jefferson. That must be someone else. This team is playing pretty good basketball of late. Give the guy some credit. ROndo has been playing major minutes lately and did a great job pushing the tempo and the C's pulled out the win.

We now clearly have a top 10 team in the league. Easy now. It was a great win, but this still a team that will lose close to 60 games. But I agree, things are going in the right direction. We just got to lose some games at the end of the year and guarantee us a top 5 pick.
