[Aces McGee]

It's true that there are far fewer ways for Doc to mess up this year. He's going to be forced into a shorter rotation, which means guys like Rondo are going to get the minutes they deserve.

I still don't think he can x-and-o at all, though, and I hate how any fourth quarter where we have a lead turns into us standing around watching Pierce try not to dribble off his knee.

That's what seems to happen whenever they play Washington, anyway, which comprise most of the games I've seen over the last few years.
