After every game, we'll take stock of how each individual performance affects the player's overall value. Starters Avery Bradley: Despite Doc's claims that Avery was "terrific for us," I can't overlook the 1-8 FG and 6 TOs. The 7 assists and 5 rebounds make his performance a push. Paul Pierce:  Best game of the year. He gave the game what it needed, and that included dominating in the 4th.    Ray Allen:  Played only 11 minutes because of the jammed ankle.    Kevin Garnett:  17 points on 7-10 FG. KG cannot be more efficient than that. Jermaine O'Neal:  3 rebounds in 27 minutes? Unfortunately, JO is what he is. Bench  Brandon Bass: A season high 35 minutes. Production was solid: 13 points and 9 rebounds. Mickael Pietrus: Also played a season high 35 minutes. Continues to bring punch on offensive (14 points) and defense (2 steals). Marqui...

After every game, we'll take stock of how each individual performance affects the player's overall value. Starters Avery Bradley: More good than bad for Avery last night.  The D on Nash was solid, he finished at the rim and he was 3-6 from 16-23 feet.  As much as I get on the guy for his long range inaccuracy, 50% from that distance is pretty good.  Here'...

Orlando was 11-4 and heading to Boston with two days rest.  The 6-9 Celtics had just played in Washington the day before.  They were also missing Rajon Rondo and Ray Allen, as well as BOTH their back-ups, Keyon Dooling and Mickael Pietrus.  Everything was pointing towards an easy Magic victory; which made what unfolded before my eyes last night all the more shocking.
