Delonte's D was awful.

>Gomes from the get-go!

>2. Rondo played just a few minutes in the second half.
>In his first 30 seconds on the court, he made a great
>dish off penetration for a lay-up, harassed the Minni
>point guard into turnover, then nailed a jumper. Of
>course, Doc took him right back out shortly thereafter
>and he languished on the bench for the remainder of
>the game. WHY? Were Delonte's parents at the game or
>something?
>
>3. Big Al looks a lot thinner than he did last year.
>And scores a lot more. Me likey.

>4. I thought the officals could look at instant replay
>to see if a shot was a three or not. Why wouldn't they
>do that for Ricky's shot at such a crucial point in
>the game?
>
>5. Maybe this has been discussed on the board already,
>but what are the chances Doc is back next season. I
>mean, he IS going to get fired isn't he?
