One more disabled player and we'd qualify for disaster relief. What is the attraction to this type player?

You mean Delonte "Always Hurt" West?  No thanks, I for one am glad he is gone.   Never ready when you need him and always nursing an injury I much prefer Dooling.

At some point you have to inject youth into other positions.

If you want Doc to play young players more, you should take away veterans so he has no choice but to rely on youth to win.

Nice to see Delonte get a chance to be in the starting line up and have a strong game. I thought he would be back; but perhaps it was a Tony Allen like story, playing behind Rondo and Ray. I guess Danny likes Marquis better than Delonte. Plain and simple.

No clue (but tp for a good chuckle).

Danny clearly gambled on getting talented players last season that had injury questionmarks, and it backfired horribly as the team basically fell apart physically.

I think Quisy and JO are enough of a gamble.  I'll take Dooling.

Bradley, though...I'm looking forward to forgetting about him completely.  I've already almost completely forgot about the crap guards that we watched play for this team...Shammond Williams, JR Bremer, et. al.  At least most of them could shoot.
