TA needs to make like Cassell and keep on the bench.

y'all make it sound like we won this game b/c TA was on the bench.
but keep in mind that Perkins was on the bench as well.
ergo: let's keep Perkins on the bench the rest of the season and keep starting Scal in his place.
 

Comparing Perk to TA is like comparing a hard working guy who plays his heart out with a turnover waiting to happen.

Not to throw cold water on the POB love but his offensive rebound and put back was against......nobody. His man wasn't anywhere near him. Anyone who's played high school and up could have gotten that rebound and put it back in easily. Also, on his defensive rebounding, his PF and SF were out hustling and out jumping him for the ball on a couple of occasions. He set lousy picks on the offensive end and his shots were bad and rushed, except for that put back.

He played 5:30 against the absolute worse players that a very mediocre NJ team has and he had a whole 2 rebounds, 2 points and 2 missed shots. And that's it. So WOW he ran the floor well and was able to catch a ball and lay it in with no one within 5 feet of him.

I didn't see anything good except that one play on Boone on the defensive end that he didn't get a block on because the 24 second clock ran out first.

yea, i didnt get that one. i think donny was going for the "from an experience at the NBA level" analogy and missed.

When i think TA on the court, i don't think "wow, this guy is solid mentally"

Just becuase he's still a little bit twitchy and questions himself still, give him a month of NBA playing time he'll be a fixture in the rotation.

You just know that a raft of TA is dumb metaphors and tongue in cheek posts are now on their way after this gem of a quote!!

"I don't think Walker can take the place, mentally, of TA.", this probably means that the Celtics only want to play someone with TA's basketball smarts. I wonder if that "Rain Man" guy is available?
