Re: Grade Current Celtic Players
Pierce = A+, he is finally everything he should have been, a team player and a leader on and off the court. Thank you Paul.
Wally Sczerbiak = B+, I know he's injured and it's effecting a play but it is so obvious to me what a better fit he is with Paul. He's also not anywhere near as bad of defense as was said and he sees the floor very well. I like this match.
Raef Lafrentz = C+, Raef has not been as consistent this year as last but he's playing better lately and he ALWAYS trys hard even when he's not playing that well.
Delonte West = B, Delonte has done much better than I thought he could but I still don't like him at PG. He does not know how to run an offense. He can do all the little things though that are great and he has a good attitude. Doesn't dissapear as much as he used to but still does it sometimes. Would like him to be a 6th man.
Kendrick Perkins = A, Perk changes the tone of the game. Guys do not want to go inside on him and he doesn't let them. He's only 21 years old, this is a sign of good things to come.
Ryan Gomes = A, Ryan has been phenomenal since getting consistent minutes. This kid is a keeper, how he lasted to 50 is beyond me. I have no complaints, except that it took a rash of injuries for Doc to put him in the freaking games.
Tony Allen = D, I know he's injured but that was a non-basketball injury that he got from being a bonehead and man he's not been himself at all. I think he's done.
Orienn Greene = C-, I don't get the fascination Doc has with him AT ALL. I know he's a rookie and he could turn into a decent back-up but right now he should NOT be playing the minutes he is, he makes me nervous.
Al Jefferson = C+, Al has not done the things I expected of him this season pre-injury. He's had games and flashes but I want to see more and until I do I can't rate him higher.
Brian Scalabrine = D-, sorry but this guy is a 12th man AT BEST and why he continues to play over ANYONE is beyond me.
Gerald Green = C+, I rating him even though he's gotten little chance. He didn't get into our rotation like Webster did in Portland but that one game that he got serious minutes he put on a good show. He's got a positive attitude and I expect good things out of young Gerald in the future.
Michael Olowakandi = B-, should be playing over Scal. I know he's on rental for the season but he's not horrible. He's played well when he's gotten minutes and has been positive about the team. To sit him when we play Shaq and Perk is injured in favor of Scal is stupidity at it's highest. Scal is not a young guy needing minutes either so it can't be justified that way either.
Dwyane Jones = I, this one I have to give an incomplete because I've only seen about 2 minutes total from him. Seems like a good kid, don't know if he has a future or not.
Dan Dickau = C+ before injury, Dan was not the starter before getting injured and he wasn't playing as well as we had hoped but he CAN run the offense pretty well and he remained a TRUE team player even when he wasn't getting minutes. He's a good guy and I wish him well trying to come back from a very serious injury.
