I wrote this in the strategy thread, too, but while I'd obviously like KG to be out there, I'm excited that some of the young guys who we drafted (or acquired on draft night) and have watched develop will get extended minutes and an expanded chance to show what they can do. I feel, without any justification of course, like a proud parent at how these guys have improved as Celtics; and I'm thrilled to imagine what a can of whup-a** guys like Powe, BBD, and Rondo may be about to unleash on people and teams that are counting us out. (Let's not forget that having a healthy Ray Allen in the playoffs will be nice, too.) While the odds are certainly against us, I think this is a team that has learned something about how to win, and I'm looking forward to seeing them come together, play their hearts out, and give us, and themselves, a playoff run worthy of the Celtics name.
