Did you see the first several minutes of the Orlando game? I love Nate in his role of the bench, but can your eyes see how this team performs without Rondo. In your blinded eyes can you what Rondo does for this offense. He is the offense.No more moronic threads about such Nate is better than Rondo! We all want the same thing here. -

Nate cannot buy a basket right now. Pierce has to be the point foward because Nate just can't do the job. Get well soon RONDO and Dwest so Nate can do what he does best-SHOOT THE BALL versus distribute it. -

Yup. Nate colder than ice. KG down hard. Should have given it up to the trailer. Less chance for injury. -

I wonder where they all are? All 5 of them must be having an "I hate Rondo party". Rondo has huge weaknesses. But anyone that says Nate or West is better? Wow. -

Nate stank big time against the Magic. Can't question his effort, but when he's off, he's really off. The limits of his skils and talents were exposed in this game. Nate doesn't deserve to start over Rondo. Inconceivable. -

No more needs to be said. Nate is an off the bench guy who when he gets hot is invaluable. Rondo is the gas that makes this engine go, get it. Ray and Shaq cannot get shots in this offense without him. Please Rondo get back this week. -

If you're referring to Dudder AKA Puddin he is a troll who disguises himself as a C's fan and creates dissent amongst real fans.For the rest of the idiots who subscribe to what a troll is preaching, newsflash meatballs defense matters more than offense... especially in crunch time. -

I think once Doc knew that Nate wasn't having a good game, he should've went with Quis. Nate played a poor playmaking game today but no big deal. -

Well, Bias, I often agree with you but not on that point about taking Nate out for Quis. Daniels stunk it up an he's a black hole with the ball. He holds it and stagnates the offense. When he's posting a smaller man, he looks good, but otherwise, he really kills the offense (and he did that today).We ALL have talked on this board about not having a back up point guard. Today it showed. We got away with it most days when the big 3 are hitting. Today, only Garnett was hitting so it showed more. -

Nate is not a NBA point guard ....period! Let go of the crack pipe for those of you who think he is. -

And Kirk, how can you hate the way Doc coaches his point guards when the result is Rondo......a player most people did not think would be this good and valuable. That kid has grown tremendously under Doc's guidance.Today we lost the first game in 15 games. Happens sometimes. I'd say the REAL reason we lost is because we didn't blow them out early when Howard was out and out big men bobbled passes and missed layups. Both O'Neal's and Baby but especially Jermaine! -

Nate's a shooting guard. Our back up point is West and he's hurt so that leaves Bradley and he's clearly not ready! -

Still can't figure that one out...Nate was an absolute liability today (offense/defense) while Quis was playing well. The thing is that it is not just this game. Throughout the winning streak Boston had been doing well hiding Nate (giving the point responsibilities to Pierce, help defense, etc.) but let's face it guys he just isn't very good. He'll give you spurts and some folks will blow it up when that happens and paint him out to be a basketball god. Unless Boston is content to wait for West to return, DA is goingn to have to try and pick up a backup pg. -

In Response to Re: To all the we are better off with nate than Rondo bashers:The offense should be run by Nate or Daniels or Bradley. Rivers is making a mistake running the offense through Pierce. We had the same problem when Rondo was healthy, and Rivers would run the offense through Pierce in the fourth quarter, and then the offense would stagnate.
Posted by Kirk6
We tried with Nate. It was horrible. Bradley? You have got to be kidding. Its like playing 4 on 5 with Bradley. Daniels doesn't do much better. Make sure you teach Doc some coaching when you attend the game. I am sure you can give him some pointers. -

Nate will play better, but Rondo needs to get back real soon or our record will come down to earth quickly.The good news is the Magic are terrible and will offer little in the way or resistance in the playoffs. Shaq is the difference this year for Dwight who is very careful around the big guy.Next time when Ray and Nate are non factors Doc needs to look for Baby over and over again. Baby will score or get to the line. -

Rondo better stay healthy after he comes back. This team will struggle against the Miami's and Orlando's. He is essential as this BB finally seems to realize. -

They're not trying to say it. Some are saying it. Nate is a valuable member of the team but he's no pg and certainly no starting PG.
Losing to Orlando is no fun but really doesn't mean much in the big picture. When we get over the injury bug, this team should really be something. -

DUDDER and his lap dog Puddin tried, but their ignorance in the attempts to do so were and are laughable and I pity them as 'fans' of this team. -

Give it up puddinhead, the Celtics will not / do not win #18 without Rondo.
