Here's an interesting tidbit: The Celtics' 21st game is against Portland.

The first 10 games Miles is suspended for, and then it's 10 more games until his contract is put on Portland's books. But the 11th game (and the first game Miles can play in) is the second of a back to back, so he may not play. So that would mean his tenth game might come against Portland...Just to rub it in the fans faces. Wow.

This team is way to stacked

Rondo/ House/ Pruitt
Allen/ Allen/ Giddens
Pierce/ Miles/ Walker
Garnett/ Powe/ Davis
Perk/ Patrick

I guess Darius will have to play minutes at the 4 so Perk and Garnett can play the 5 for some time

why can't he play at the 3 position? the rookies walker and giddens aren't guaranteed any time on the court right now.

JR Giddens and Bill Walker both want to play now tho!

JR is 23 and he doesn't want to wait till he's 25 to get respectable minutes. Who Would?

Why do you think Bill Wlaker stayed in the draft. He could have been a lottery pick next year if he stayed in college.

Tony Allen wants to restart his career.

PP and RA are prolly happy tho that they don't have to play 35+ minutes game anymore in the regular season!

I don't know about way too stacked without Posey.  If Miles applies himself he takes TA's spot almost immediately once he comes back.  No team that has Tony Allen as a back up anything is that stacked.
"Take this down," said O'Neal. "My name is Shaquille O'Neal and Paul Pierce is the (expletive) truth. Quote me on that and don't take nothing out. I knew he could play, but I didn't know he could play like this. Paul Pierce is the truth."
