This is the second time in three games that I have not seen him on the end of the bench (in either dress clothes or in uniform).  Tonight would be a perfect night for him to be activated, as Giddens is in Utah, Cassell in dress clothes, and Garnett inactive.  Anyone know anything regarding his status?

I am pretty sure he is there.  He may just be sitting on the floor or something (they lost significant bench room this year to some more really expensive seats).

Does anyone else think that Walker got suspended by the Celtics due to the incident with POB?? he was not on the bench and POB took his place on the active list. Huhmm....thats my guess.

I have actually noticed him quite alot going crazy celebrating and hugging everyone ala Posey.  I found it encouraging.  I didnt notice him tonight however.

POB probably got mad at him for waking him up at practice.

I apparently missed it too. Also, I thought he got sent to Utah with Giddens.

I read somewhere that Doc said he was going to use the first 15 games to establish his rotation. Walker should start to see some PT in a week or two.

Also keep in mind, Doc has a tendency to sit his young guys early in the season. It happened to Powe, Gomes, Rondo, DWest etc. Bill Walker is probably getting the same treatment. Right now he is paying his dues and putting in work on the practice court. He'll get time soon.
