SL Game 5 (Celtics: 92 vs NJ/Phil: 79)

[ParticleMan]

I don't think you can judge guys like Giddens and Walker in SL. In SL, Scal can look like a worldbeater (or his shorter alter ego Coby Karl), but Rondo and Big Al can disappear. SL is a terrible place to evaluate NBA potential because they aren't playing against NBA level talent or athleticism.

TA is a very good player if he's healthy and getting consistent minutes. But he can't stay healthy, and he struggles when given spot minutes. Can Giddens/Walker unseat him? I dunno, but I wouldn't read much into the SL performance.

Scal is what he is, but should we also give a chance to someone like Kevin Rogers? You also have to factor in potential.

Maybe we will make a trade and all this will sort itself out. But I suspect nobody is going to give us anything enticing for our junk. We're just going to have to figure out who to keep on our own.
