It looks like the big 3 aren't playing tonight...

This means Scal is getting MORE playing time! :)

And I predict Vince Carter is the next "star" to whine about Billy Walker...

well this is the first time that my schedule will get in teh way of a celtics game this season. I won't even get home till half-time.

And sorry Celts but I going to keep up watching the Office regularly. That's on at 9.

Last year there was an extreme amount of games on Friday. I hope that's the case again so I'll be able to see them the first time they are played rather then on tape :o/

No Big Three tonight. Giddens is getting the start along with Perk, Powe, Rondo, and Tony Allen.

yeesh, I like the baby lineup over what it looks like the Nets are throwing out there this year.

Caught this of ESPN today, http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ysv3v7uX ... ew/?tab=my

Harris is a quality young pt, but I love how a tiny white streetballing Brit (oxymoron?) gets a fadeaway over him and then outright Rondo's him.

Semi-surprised Giddens gets the starting nod. If D.Miles/O'Bryant get pt, they should be able to do work against the chairman and lopez.

Pruitt, do your thing to ensure that Sam is right where he should be in an assistant coaching position/emergency player option (didn't we suit up a latelate 30s Dana Barros from the coaching ranks a few seasons ago?)

Tony, Powe, Giddens are in the starting lineup replacing the BIG 3. We'll get a long look at Giddens, which will be good.

Scal is the MAN! The Celts turned the game around due to his steady leadership on the court... and did you noticed that he filled out his stat sheet nicely and besides... he is +14 for the game so far...

We are keeping him...

Scal is a very good defensive player! And we look much more organized when he is in the game. If he could just hit the open 3`s...

Scal had a good game. A few offensive blunders but all in all a very good performance.

I really enjoyed this game! It was nice to see the young guys...
