I really liked what I saw in T Will in Game 5. He brought a calmness to the point position and didn't seem frazzled.

 He says he's been getting a lot of pointers from Rondo on how to pass out of double teams and where Kg likes the ball and the type of passes he like.

Hopefully, T will can be the back up pg that this team has been missing.

Around 1:20 Mark he speaks about Rondo.

I completely agree with your first paragraph, I like what I'm hearing in the second paragraph, and I feel the same regarding your third paragraph.

T-Will getting more minutes may mean less minutes from Bradley, but I'm willing to see that, because I think the overall result is better. Boston can't have more bouts of horrendous passing such as what we saw from Bradley in the first few games of the series. Besides that, as good a defender as Bradley is, he doesn't have the size and strength to hang with Felton, but T-Will does. Williams also seems like a pretty good rebounder.

I think what it really means is Courtney Lee going from 20 minutes in game 1 to DNPs in the two wins.

Is there really any doubt in anyone's mind that Rondo is a future head coach in the NBA and probably a great one at that?

Yes, Rondo has a high likelyhood of being a NBA head coach.

I don't see Rondo as a coach. I feel he'll be a private guy, like KG

I think Williams has a long way to go to be a rotational nba player.  And it is questionable whether he sticks in the league.

But besides is play yesterday, the one thing I really really like about his game is his rebounding (for a guard).  He, more than any other guard not named Rondo, can the ability to get inside and help some of our rebounding struggles.

I expect him to be in the Boston Celtics rotation full time by next season.

Williams was scaring the heck out of me everytime he touched the ball last night.  Screaming at the tv. 

I will say, though, that he seemed to bring an aggressiveness from the PG position on the offensive end that we hadn't seen in a while.  I liked that.  I just question some of his decision making at times.

That's pretty cool. TWill has always had the talent to be at least a niche player in the league, it was just the off the court stuff that got him into trouble.

Doc needs to give this kid more minutes; if he performs like that under the brightest lights he should do some great things on the road.

I think he could be a great coach, but he's too private for that gig and you know how he is about interviews..LOL

Definitely missed rebounding from the guard position. That was one of the main things I missed about Rondo besides his passing.

If he sticks with the C's, I want to see what a full training camp does for him.

  Can you imagine how *that* talk would go? "Now Rajon, you have to give serious answers to all the questions posed to you in the post game press conferences...  Stop laughing! I'm serious!".

His interviews would be dryer than Pops..lol. And his relationship with the refs would not be the best..lol. They wouldn't even allow him to talk to them at all.
