> Wednesday will be game twenty, so here is my brief review of the first 
> quarter season.
>
>  Coach has done a good job; indeed, the troika we know of Doc, the defense 
> guy and the big man guy have been outstanding.  If good students make good 
> teachers, then good players are making good coaches.  Particularly nice to 
> see:  Doc not jerking Rondo around or even Davis; instead he's counseling

>  The Three:  B+ grade.  Garnett gets the A, while Pierce and Allen get a 
> B.
>
>  The Two:  Perk and Rondo each get a B+.  Both have fit in well and shown 
> improvement.  Rondo may even deserve an A, since his shooting has matured 
> so quickly.
>
>  The Vet Bench:  B+.  Posey and Dr. House are A students; couldn't ask any 
> more of them.  Tony Allen is an Incomplete again; wow, he's got talent, 
> but we wait again.  Pollard had some good games but is hurt now?  Anyway, 
> he easily gets a B.
>
>  The Rook:  B+.  Davis is really impressive and did well in escaping the 
> blocks by Big Ben.  He has pushed around some big and tall men while 
> rebounding well, setting monster picks and showing good help defense.  He 
> might even get mention for the All-Rookie team if he continues to get 
> minutes.
>
>  That's enough. Others are better at in-depth player evaluation.  At 17-2, 
> everyone passes.  Cheers, Gene
