Regular Season Grade

Personally,i feel the team has done very good considering the bumps here and there this season.On the otherhand,i see management,Doc(coaching staff),and players all separate issues as far as how i view their performances for this season.I would like to see a poll for Danny separate from Doc/coaches/players,and vice versa.Great idea for the poll.

my first impulse was to give the team a B+, but then i thought about it, and i think B or lower makes the assumption that the first half the celtics were playing around “A” and then after these injuries theyv gone down a letter, but thats not the case, first half they were playing A+++ while on pace to have one of the best NBA records ever. Then came an onslaught of injuries we’re STILL in it for 60 wins. So i have to say, this season has been an “A” for me.

Good point, House Call. Management’s performance drags down the overall grade of the franchise. I’d give players a higher grade, to be certain.

to an A-. As a teacher I can tell you that a B+ is the most contested grade of them all.

12 and 19 game win streaks when healthy..still gonna win 60 games…A+ easily…

because no one can deny the domination that occurred before that horrible Christmas day match…and with a healthy KG (fingers crossed!) and maybe even a 75% Powe back in the line up, then your looking at A+, easy.

How in the world is it not an “A”? Only 10% of folks voted for an “A”. I find that unbelievable. The Celtics have done a tremendous job defending their Championship.

Doc has done a good job, the team has played great when healthy, I love the improvement in Rondo, Perk, and Ray.
However, Danny gets a pretty low grade for his work this year. The draft picks won’t be playing in the playoffs which can be excused due to the draft position. But I never liked signing POB over Birdman, he let Posey go(which I understood), didn’t aquire Nocioni when he had the opportunity. I still think Marbury can help, but Mikki Moore is one of the biggest stiffs in the league and he’ll be of no use in the playoffs. Plus he is the first Celtic since Blount and Walker before him, that really angers me and has me shaking my head when I watch. I have liked everyone from Pruitt to TA to Telfair to Green and Greene, but I do not like Moore at all as a player.

Coach Bo wouldn’t have signed POB. And Coach Bo would have brought in a competent wing to back up Pierce – points I’ve been making since August.

I guess I’m in the 1% because I think they’ve lost every big game this year. I know they’ve had a target on their back but losing to the Clippers and Pacers, etc. is just unforgiveable.

Then, every big game this year starting on Christmas they have lost. The Magic, the lakers, the Spurs, the Cavs are all the better teams and all think they can beat the C’s. Last year, the C’s tried to prove themselves to themselves and to the rest of the league. This year, especially the last 2 months they have just been skating.

We have lost that intimidation factor and the homecourt advantage. Maybe the C’s are good enough to turn it off and turn it on but as far as a grade for the year? C. Take away the 2 winning streaks and they’ve played 500 ball. Unacceptable. I’d have given them a D or an F if it hadn’t have been for Nov-Jan for the most part. Since KG’s been out they have sucked. I can hardly stand to watch them without KG.
