Chicken or the Egg?

Doc wants to rest the starters, but the bench doesn't produce.

Or is the bench not producing because they aren't getting any PT?

It's tempting to say that the bench just stinks. But if it does, then it also stinks in getting Leon Powe shot opportunities, because he had -0- field goal attempts for the second time on the trip. Not wholly unrelated, the Celtics bench had 1 assist. Overall the bench was -26 in 50 minutes of play.

Let me check my notes.

The bench needs a big with some length.

The bench needs a wing who can score and defend.

The bench needs a quarterback, preferably a point guard.

Funny what happens when PJ Brown retires, James Posey jumps ship, and Sam Cassell is forced into coaching.
