Doc can't make our guys play better.  He's called them out for not playing like they should but what else can he do?  The only thing I could see Doc getting complaints about is playing Baby too much.
Philly:

Anderson Varejao    Tiago Splitter    Matt Bonner
David West    Kenyon Martin    Brad Miller
Andre Iguodala    Josh Childress    Marquis Daniels
Dwyane Wade    Leandro Barbosa
Kirk Hinrich    Toney Douglas   + the legendary Kevin McHale

That bum Danny Ainge laid this egg., not Doc.

Remember, Danny may have laid the egg, but Doc scrambled it.

dannys egg has what it takes to be a golden one!

Everyone from danny down to eddie lecerte should shoulder some of the blame.  Which is kind of nice since rondo has been regarded as the DEVIL by a few posters here for awhile.  Doc should be sitting certain people who aren't playing good defense (ray) or team ball (baby).  Our vets the big 3 should be able at this point in their careers to say doc i need a break from practice and or game, i'm just feeling tired.  Rondo should do the same thing, hey i have a million small injuries delonte is back a day off would do wonders.
shaq should have lost 50 lbs before the start of the season
jermaine should have known (or our medical staff) what was going on with his knee LAST off season and had the surgery then! this one i can't get over
davis has to realize his value is as an energy guy off the bench first and foremost, if shots are falling and you are open, great score 20 pts but don't force it!!!  if he takes more shots than any starter but krstic its a problem
doc should be playing green a lot more imo
krstic should be studying the defense and have it down

if we hang another banner there is no blame period
i've vented, watch the game tonight in peace

Doc has proven he can win a championship so I think right now he's untouchable. He's like Jerry Sloan, unless he retires. He'll be the last person to take blame.

Blame for what?  Are we already out of the playoffs, and I missed it?

Haha, all I am saying is that the ridiculous blame being placed on guys like Rondo or the Perk trade is getting old...perhaps some of our recent losing should be blamed on Doc playing Baby too much and not using guys like Green in certain situations. All I'm saying is that it is ultimately Doc's job to keep this team motivated and interested, and the team does not look motivated or interested at this point. As many posters have stated, there isn't anyone on this team who is completely blame-free when it comes to our recent .500 basketball play.

I've had a radical idea. Let's not put blame on anyone until we're out of the playoffs. THEN, and only then can we decide whose fault it was. In my opinion, the reason we're playing so poorly right now is due to a combination of a lot of things. There's no blame to be had until we've actually screwed up and can no longer play in the 2010-2011 season.

It is hard to blame the coach who had a team with the 2nd best record in the league have that team completely reworked in the middle of the season when there is little opportunity to have the type of practices needed for such a radical change.

Yup. Have another TP from me.  ;)

No blame until next year...when we have healthy players (if possible) and they all went trough training camp and are not playing up to their potential.
