Celtics (51-22) at Spurs (57-17) 3/31

The Krstic injury is a non factor. He was a terrible player and was a trainwreck on defense, his stats also were bad and he brought no intangibles to the team.

Anyone from the D-League can fill in at his playoff role as 3rd string center.

Baby/KG can play minutes at center if needed also.

I repeat again, Krstic was a scrub that brought nothing to the table, no defense, no toughness, nothing.

He reduces the minutes for the O'Neals, how is that not important? They are 36 and 39.

With no Krstic, If JO and/or SHaq arent available in the playoffs, a real possibility, were looking at Troy Murphy in the playoffs. Ouch.

Krstic was struggling but he played pretty well tonight. The real Krstic is probably somehwere in between this past week (pretty bad) and what we saw in the first 7 games with him (really really good). What he brings on offense and offensive boarding, could be very valuable in the playoffs in a reduced role.

Two minor thoughts:

1) Loved Green taking it at Bonner and making him a liability.  I'd love to see more of that.  

2) Didn't like Baby on Duncan at the end of the game.  My first thought was "where is Jermaine?"  And while that may come in time, Doc really should've put KG on Duncan.  This notion that 7-1 KG (and that's his real height) isn't a center and thus should guard power forwards even when 6-6 BBD is in the game is absurd.

He just doesn't like Krstic. Live with it, man. :\

Also, I didn't love Ray playing 41 minutes.  I wouldn't liked to see Doc be a little more creative and get West or Green some of those minutes.  It's no wonder his shot is off at times with the number of minutes he's playing.

He's just a pretend Celtics fan. Don't worry about him.

Can we trade Megatron to a Lakers board or something?

Did his fellow Laker trolls give him his 136 points on 1280 posts?

[Megatron]

Im sorry for the negative posts about Krstic, I just dont think hes any good and he makes this team worse.

Its in my opinion that if Shaq and Jermaine both regain consistent health, Krstic would be a 3rd string center at best, and those are easily replaceable, and if we just needed a big body to commit fouls, we could cut Krstic and sign a D-Leaguer.

TP. I've been wanting to say this for a long time. Whenever KG and Davis out there, KG must switch to center! Why does Doc refuse to switch, and let Baby get owned in the paint against 7 footers? Boggles my mind.

Big Baby is very good against big centers, who can't shoot as good as Timmy, because he can keep them out of the paint. But it would have made sense to switch tonight.

And Rondo! I bet if Rondo had a SINGLE TURNOVER tonight, he's gonna call him out for it!

Am I the only one that could care less that Krstic got hurt?

I could care less, but only because I know what that phrase means.  We need quality depth up front, and Krstic provided that.  Hope he can make it back for the playoffs at least.

Great win - this team continues to step up against the elite teams in the league.  Once we got the ball moving, we out-Spurred the Spurs.  I hope we play them in the Finals - a lot less pressure for a lot of reasons.

hahahahha!!! i was waiting for this!!! yeah, i could care less too!
