Green is very talented but he continues to be green.  Not to say he can't turn it around (I think he can) but don't expect him to be a lebron stopper.

Our defense needs work.  A lot of work.

Lee is solid, if not spectacular.  Bradley is better guarding wade.

Sully will have trouble and may be relegated to the bench due to his defensive deficiencies.

Ray is an extremely valuable player that can cause havoc.  Too bad a lot fans did not appreciate it.

Pierce looks good; kg, not so much (but I expect it to get better)

Terry needs time to get comfortable.

Lebron IS the best player in the world.

If lebron plays up to his potential, there is nothing any team can do to beat the heat.  Their best beats everyone else's best.

Green is still a question mark.

Ray is still clutch.

If the defense doesn't show up, we don't win.

I think they need a stronger big man who can anchor the team while Garnett gets some rest. Those lineups with Bass out there at center look dodgy.

I loved what I saw from Lee, Bass & Barbosa.  Rondo and Pierce looked great as well.

Garnett and Terry didnt have good games

Green looks very rusty.

Rashard Lewis looked pretty useful for Miami.

Looks like he's going to be another weapon for them this season. Gives them another forward with size who can defend the four and knock down threes. Keep those small-ball lineups alive for 48 minutes a night if Spoelstra so wishes. Valuable.

That we should let Barbosa loose early and often.

Defense was terrible.  That is the singular most important take away.

Will it get better in time, or, will new personnel be needed (bigs).

The Celtics still need to find a consistent low post threat.



The team defense needs work and time.



The team either has to play a lot better or start looking to make changes.

Doc needs to stop relying on small ball with any combo of Green, Bass, and Sully as the lone two bigs.

We learned that this team isn't going to beat Miami by trying to play Miami's game.  We need to stay big to protect the rim.  As it was, this was a layup drill.

The c's need a defensive anchor when kg leaves the game *cough* Josh Smith *cough*

Bradley will help a great deal when he gets back
