If you are watching right now, wondering; why is this team playing so well without Ray and O'Neal? Is it because they are playing the Nets? The answer is no.

The Nets are really horrible, though...


They have beat the Mavs, Knicks, and Bulls recently.

It seriously displeases me to see Dooling on the floor at any time.


how much wood would a woodchuck chuck if a woodchuck was chris bosh?

Love the press, hopefully the bench starts doing this too.

I missed the first quarter have we been running this all game? With the starters and the bench players?

The Celtics second unit lacks scoring, Moore is a better scorer than Dooling. Moore should play over Dooling.

Wouldn't mind seeing Humphries in Boston next year to solve our ever present rebounding woes.

Full court press changed game complexity. I think it was Rondo's decision to press full court.
Where do you get that?

Pressing full court is a coaching call, something they bring out after practicing it.

Man, I would love to start Pietrus and Wilcox the rest of the season.

Wilcox I'd keep on the bench. Bass prototypical power forward. Pietrus however should def be in starting lineup.

I'm loving what Dooling is doing at this moment.
He was sitting on the bench.  ;)


Pietrus and Rondo = Sexy

"7ft PG. Rondo leaves and GUESS WHAT? We got a BIGGER point guard!"-Tommy on Olynyk

Moore is a better scorer than Dooling.

That claim isn't actually backed up by the numbers.

Doc isn't that creative. Plus Rondo has a lot of leeway on the court.

Would JO have fared any better against Lopez? Lopez is nimble so I don't think so.

Can someone explin why everyone hates Dooling so much?

I admit he has been cold from the floor lately, but he plays very good to great defense, is one of the few players running the fast break, goes to the basket well, is a decent passer, and has been getting some rebounds lately.

If he starts hitting his outside shot, I don't see a reason to hate him at all.

I seriously doubt that ETM is a better player in any way whatsoever to Dooling. If Dooling wasn't slumping, there would be no call to have his head.
