Others have mentioned this previously...but I cannot understand why, in any close game near the end, Garnett is not the first option.  He is money on the shake and bake turnaround baseline J but rarely seems to get the ball in the late scenario.  His passing ability out of the doubleteam should make it an absolute necessity, no?  
 
James Posey is rapidly ascending my chart of favorite players.  I knew he was a good defender but did not realize his shooting ability.  Having Garnett, Ray, Posey, Pierce and Rondo out there, if the ball is dumped into Garnett, pretty much assures a wide open shot somewhere if he kicks it back out.
 
What's with Perk and the technical foul?  Shaddup and play son.
