Rondo, Sullinger, Barbosa out for the season
Wilcox, Green coming back from heart surgery
KG, Pierce both on the verge of spontaneously exploding and managing them
Terry, Lee, Bradley all up and down all season
Playing COLLINS significant minutes at center
A rotary door of role players coming in and squeezing decent minutes out of them
Consistently great, no good, great, timeout play calling and end of the game adjustments
On top of that, this team has been horrifically up and down all season, going on great streaks and then going on big losing streaks. Yet through it all he managed to get these guys to keep fighting, even with guys constantly falling and needing to be replaced. The defense has pulled itself together and become elite even with a rotary of new players constantly being filled in all season.
All this and we get a respectable playoff seed?
Just like how Belichick should have won COTY in 2008 without Brady, Doc should at least get some consideration.
