Minutes Played

[35Lewis]

As impressed I am with getting a good victory and keeping a team to 80 points, I am most impressed with the following stats:

Minutes
Pierce 27:37
Garnett 25:05
Allen 26:52
Rondo 29:47

As much as I was emotionally attached to the guys that were sent out, I am glad to see that Doc finally has a bench that he can trust so that he can get the Big 4's minutes down. 

Now that Delonte has returned I hope the team will consider giving Rondo a few games off to deal with either his physical or mental injury that seems to be plaguing him.  Arroyo has shown the ability to be able to set up the offense and run our sets fairly well (why did Miami feel Bibby was better than this guy?).

i wanted to start a thread about the minutes last night as well. even tho the second unit took over at the beginning of the fourth, i was pretty convinced doc would bring the starters back in midway through. he proved me wrong and let the bench finish the game. it worked out well. i just hope they keep this up on friday and saturday (especially saturday as it will be the second of a back to back)
