Celtics (5-9) at Wizards (2-13) 1/22

[Marcus13]

We should be happy with a win today guys, calm down.  We're missing two of our top three players.  Most teams in the league would struggle given that circumstance

[Who]

I really like Nick Young.

I think he and Rondo would be great together in the backcourt.

I don't like how little he gives other than scoring ability. 

I think he could become neutral on defense.

Man-to-man defense is much improved from his early years. Team defense is really poor but playing on a high quality defensively orientated team could help him grow. I like his chances of becoming an average defender after some time in a good environment.

Quality scoring punch + average defense ... with negative contributions via very poor passing and rebounding.

Wow, Pierce has been huge today!

eh...not the kind of player I would like on my team, I prefer Pietrus over him

[Eja117]

just fyi...the Patriots are on

[snively]

You know your wing situation is weak when Jordan Crawford guards Pierce in crunch time.

[Marcus13]

Wow, Pierce has been huge today!

This is a brilliant performance

[mqtcelticsfan]

Pierce with 33/7/10 tonight on only 14 FG attempts. Definitely the reason we're in this game.

[snively]

Wow, Bradley.  I take back my kind words.

[Marcus13]

Disappointing that even without Rondo and Ray how useless KG has been

[ManUp]

Wow they just let KG walk in there.

[Marcus13]

Washington is just too poorly coached to close a team like us out.

We're winning, today

I'd like to have some scorers / shot-creators with Rondo.

If the Celtics can't find enough high quality offensively gifted All-Star caliber talent to couple with Rondo ... someone like Nick Young could end up being a valuable alternative.

Likewise for Orlando and Dwight Howard. Facilitator (Dwight) with scoring role player (N.Young).

I don't even know if it's really the coaching. The players just all seem to have very low bball IQ's

3-0 Patriots
