You mean the same Doc Rivers that won, what, 15 games in a year? I can coach KG, Rondo, Ray Allen and Paul Pierce to 50 wins. Rivers is a good coach, but he couldn't do much with this garbage.

It's like they took two 'Wall' jerseys and stitched them together. Those 2s are spread too far apart, like a bad boob job.

Shakur definitely a positive so far. Remember the Celtics probably don't have much film on him or any scouting report. Other than getting blown by Rondo, he's actually stayed in front of him. Where as Nick is giving up penetration to Allen and whomever he's guarding at the 2.

Yeah the same Doc that took three team leading players and turned them into a title contender..

The same Doc that added an unknown rookie point and developed him into an all star.

Turned Big Baby in a legit role player and is managing players like Nate Robinson and Kendrick Perkins..

I like Doc a lot, but no coach is perfect. Flip can compete with the right pieces, and Doc can lead a team to the worst record in the league. Both of these coaches have proven it.

Buck said this was his first NBA game. Maybe he never got on the floor.

Doc is a decent coach. Let's not get carried away though... he's not responsible for Rondo's talent. If anything, he's clashed with Rondo, almost to the point of wanting him traded away.

If you want to argue specific ways in which he is superior to other middle of the road NBA coaches, I'm open to arguments... but you will need to include the weaknesses he evidenced when the Celtics spent a few years dumpster diving in the draft.

Whatever you say.
And Flip won a ton of games with KG. Allen, Pierce and KG are HOF players. Can't win without talent and smart players.

Bandwagon Celtics fans are a disgrace. You couldn't find them at our games when they were lead by Delonte West and Al Jefferson.

I miss Shakur.

Damn Celts have a nice bench with Daniels, Nate, Big Baby, etc. They could also start on Wiz.

Here's hoping for Dray to pick up 2nd tech. Well at least he's playing in pain. I'll give him credit for that.

McGee needs to get more shots on offense...it couldn't hurt.

As crappy as the Wiz have played defensively, it's amazing that they are down single digits. I kind of like the lineup w/o Blatche with RLew at the 4 and AT at the 3. Bring Dray off the bench.
