wow big al is looking incredible to me right now. You can really tell he's been working hard this off-season. Awesome stuff guys.
Wow that was an impressive lead pass to Gerald by Rondo..I don't know about bench.. I think Perk should end up in the starting rotations with Gomes, Pierce, Wally, and Telfair/West.That being said I do like Perkins and Jefferson together and Ratliff and Gomes compliment each other nicely as well, so you never know what's going to happen.. can't wait to see what Doc ends up doing.EDIT: Al can run the floor now too! He's really looking great right now.
<div class='quotetop'>QUOTE </div><div class='quotemain'>Al can run the floor now too!

I was talking about how I didn't think he would be able to run the floor well in another thread. I stand corrected, he looks great right now.
Hoooooly sh*t Gerald just flew out of nowhere to clean up that rebound.haha cant wait till that one is on youtubeOne thing I like about this offense is something Tommy noted, that Telfair and Rondo will push the ball after not only rebounds, but made baskets too, and they always have the ball back up near the top of the key with 20-21 seconds left on the shot clock. Getting the ball back that quick will get them a lot of cheap baskets, and give them more time to set their offense if they so choose to do so.
Hell even Olowokandi has looked pretty decent tonight. Blocked a shot, gotten a few nice rebounds.EDIT: He's played like 6 minutes and he has at least 8 or 9 rebounds.
Lmao, Boston kept there Starting 5 in threw the 3rd Q just a few min ago they took it out...ROFLJames didn't play much at all nor Hughes.
I think one of the Cavs bigger weaknesses is shooting. They don't really have too many guys who can shoot at real high percentages. That'll be a weakness for them, but it won't really affect their playoff chances, I still see them as a playoff team. The kids have been pretty impressive tonight so far.
cavs are obviously a top east teamits just the preseasonlebron and pierce would be going at it running up the scoreboard and making shot after shot if this game was in january

Obvioulsy LeBron will be their top scorer and carry the offense night in and night out. I just think that in the playoffs especially, they're weak supporting cast will end up being their downfall. They really need more jump shooters off of the bench. I hate to get this high off of a pre-season game but the Celtics have played completel awesome tonight. Gerald had multiple spectacular plays. Rondo and Telfair both looked great. Big Al looked like a new player with the same post moves, so much more fluid and quick. Hell, even Kandi impressed big time tonight, if he can pull off a few more of those types of games I'd expect to see him on the roster and hopefully he can make an impact.
