Celtics lineup tonight (vs. Florida)

I know there's an NBA thread, but this is seriously one of the most absurd things I have ever seen in professional sports.

Due to injuries to the following players: Wally Szczerbiak, Theo Ratliff, Paul Pierce, Delonte West, Tony Allen, and Brian Scalabrine, the Celtics have been left with the following players:

PG- Sebastian Telfair - 21
SG- Gerald Green- 21
SF- Ryan Gomes- 24
PF- Al Jefferson- 22
C- Kendrick Perkins- 22

with a bench of Allan Ray (22), Rajon Rondo (20), and Michael Olowakandi (31, the lone exception), and Leon Powe (22).

What is noticeable about this, is that not only are these guys young, but 6 of the 9 should still be in college, and two were on the roster to never be used, just fill out the numbers (A. Ray and Kandi).

Just thought it was kind of cool.

Now the question, how would a roster of:

Telfair-Rondo-Green-Jefferson-Perkins with Leon Powe off the bench do against Florida (assuming Gomes, Ray, and Kandi can't play) and the Celtics get two more replacement level bench players??

IMO it would be a very tightly contested game, which says something about both teams. Any chance these two could get a "friendly" against each other?

I would think Florida would win simply because they probably play better as a team.

also, Notre Dame could beat the Raiders b/c of their mystique edge, but only if they get to wear their green shirts.

didnt know telfair was that young, if what you say is true i should fade the hell out of the celtics as long as they have this lineup

The Celtics would win and I don't think it would be close.

Agreed. Under college rules, I'll say something like 90-55 final score.

ray is the celtics worst player probably and there is how many players on florida better than he was in college? 3 max?

Assani Fisher · #9 01-12-2007, 09:38 PM

and then also consider that Ray is now a lot better than he was in college. This game wouldn't be close. Boston would win 24 out of 25 imo.
