Celtics were dominating with Shaq. We beat the Heatles if Shaq didn’t only play one game, they couldn’t beat that lineup.

Agreed, first part of the season when Shaq was Healthy, they were good. Rondo was adept at feeding him near the hoop.

The one questionable play was where he left his man to double team the ball..left his man open who hit a jumper.

Not sure what happened there..assuming just a mistake but maybe he was told to do that?

Overall though, his defense has been solid.
Nothing wrong with having a different opinion - as long as it's done respectfully. It'd be lame if we all agreed on everything :)

Joe really more assertive this season.

JT's going to have to play more disciplined now.

76ers already tanking so they can get AJ to go along with VJ.

Those two guys better keep shooting because the D is atrocious

Our starters don’t matter, Joe said, it’s who finishes it.

This is what I was afraid of when people were talking about starting him. He disappears for too long in games. And he's not athletic enough to be a playmaker on either side. Boucher really should be starting.

I'm with Boucher Starting, and Hauser coming in as a microwave.

I'll take Boucher, over those two.

Just give hauser time to get in his groove. I like Boucher starting but he’s a good spark too. Change of pace from the bench.

that is a relief then, thanks


It’s not unserious at all. Look at White’s numbers prior to the Celtics and his first season. I guarantee he will be inefficient again this season

Ugggh.

Queta needs to get out of there, and don't commit the Offensive.
5 Fouls.

Queta = Fouled OUT. Less than 2 mins, in Regulation.

We can't afford to go to OT.
