Getting my first glimpse at the new Celts. Very weird to see them
playing the t-wolves (ricky davis, al, gerald, craig smith!, telfair),
but it confirms for me that we did the right thing.
So many things to like:
- Kendrick Perkins now has Garnett tutoring him on the floor, instead
of him and Jeffereson learning together.
- inside! We are playing inside!! on offense - KG feeding perk, who is
getting more open looks. On D, there is Perk, KG, Batista
- ray allen's shooting - wow. Pierce now has no excuse to go 1 on 3
like he used to. He's never out of options.
- rondo finding the open man
- defense! lots of long arms poking the ball away - Rondo, KG, Pierce,
Allen, Posey. Starters diving on the floor (kg). How many steals will
they rack up? And, the steals lead to baskets! What a novel concept.
- garnett's leaderhsip - Pierce is going to have a tremendous year
because of this
- high low - perk to kg to Rondo out to Allen on the perimiter - boom!
This team is special. They are intense, very talented, and really good
defensively. They are going all the way. We'll put posey/tony allen on
Lebron; Garnett on Duncan or Nowitski. Hang up the banner, baby!!
