Starting five will be Rondo, Bradley, Bass, Pietrus and Stiemsma.

I'd be lying if I didn't say I had some serious concerns about this one, but I guess I'll have to see what happens.

Gary Washburn: Doc Rivers confirms Pierce and Garnett are out to get rest, Stiemsma, Pietrus, Bass, Bradley and Rondo are your #celtics starting five about 28 minutes ago

I feel great.

The Vets are the ones who usually come out and play like they dont care when facing bad teams.

Now our entire lineup consists of young guys out to prove something.

I expect HUGE games from Bradley and the rest of our young guys, Bradley, Rondo, and Bass are BY FAR the best players on the court tonight.

I'm happy for the rest because they need it.
I hope they can win this game though and hope they show up for the Bobcats because the last time they took a team lightly they lost.

Great news. This is a game where rest is ideal. I hope Doc can find time to rest Bass too. Still concerned with Steamers foot. The kid is probably playing thru the pain. Go C's.

While Bass deserves to get the game off for rest as well, we just don't have the bodies to do it.  Stiemsma, Hollins & Johnson as your only 3 bigs is not a good idea.  Bass should be limited to no more than 20-25 minutes though.

this should be an interesting game for Rondo haters.  Let's see how he does with no Hall of Famers in the lineup.

But he has Avery Bradley and JJJ!

Even without his HOF teammates, you can't take this game as a measuring stick for Rondo because the Bobcats are so bad. But, FWIW, he has 12-2-7 for the 1st quarter.

Fantasy semi's -- I'm up 5-4 but Doc sitting PP & KG could cost me 100's of bucks! :'(

These are things a smart fantasy owner prepares for and expects.  In my league I traded Pierce at the deadline.  Most fantasy leagues have their playoffs during the last couple weeks of the regular season.  NO WAY am I getting stuck with a vet star who more than likely will be getting rest down the stretch.
