Our celtics are pretty bad after the starters- BABY, SCAL, AND TA- are players that other teams would not even play in thier rotation and you guys know it. House and Powe are ok as like 9 and 10th guys- The starters are beat down it's obvious to- Ray is playing way too many mins and rondo and perk are dead on the court- Paul is tired and holding back as well- So we BADLY need a spark!

So if we can all realize that we need a 7 and 8 off the bench- we don't have -and stop trying to justify that the others are fine- we can MOVE ON- and call for change- no it aint easy but .... NEEDED!
There appears one way to do such- we have to deal any youth we have- and any bench guys -anyone wants- yes anyone who is beyond our best 7 and 8 off the bench can go- and hopefully somehow get ahold of 2 bench players that can spark the team and be counted on- OR WE WILL NOT COMPETE in the end before the big 3 are finished- meaning top level championship runs in the next 3 years.

Reality check: It's been our starters blowing a lot of games or not getting it done in the 4th quarter in a lot of games over these few losses. Yes, our bench is bad, but it's not our only problem.

I don't think it's the starters fault- BECAUSE they get no rest and gainings from the bench- noone can come in and add 10 points hardly ever, noone can come in and stop another quality player on another team defensively- noone comes in and dominates the glass whatsoever off the bench- it's a long year and the 5 starters will have ups and downs and your right at times they have failed us but- they have nothing off the bench to add a boost to the flow of the game in my opinion.

Powe is a real player, it's just that the second unit does not get him the ball, he should be the first option with the second unit if Ray or Paul isn't out there.

I do agree that Tony Allen aful! Teams have figured out that he like Rondo can't shoot a lick!
