Michael McClellan of Celtic Nation has obviously never seen the Matadors.

Doc loves Powe?? Sign of sure doom for Powe. Powe will either be cut or inactive.

From the ESPN article about Batista:
Boston coach Doc Rivers, however, was quick to pick out the newcomer’s weakness. He’s playing well, said Rivers. “He’s extremely physical but he’s more offensive-minded than defensive-minded. He’s going to have to reverse that. We need him to be a rebounder and defender. We’re not worried about our offense a whole bunch.”

 :D ;D ;D

Does anybody take Rivers seriously when he talks about defense? If Thibodeau isn’t allowed to implement a coherent NBA defense, I’d guess one would interpret Rivers’ diatribe as Batista had better learn to chase guards on the perimeter.
