Have the Celtics finally come to their end? Was Game 7 the last game with the Big Four and their coach? Nobody knows what could happen but that tragic Game 7 loss to the Lakers was a deal breaker. The Celtics showed no life in the final minutes and just lost focus on what they had previously set their minds to. To win a championship.
But, that didnt happen. They took the loss in LA and went back to Boston empty handed. No trophy, no celebration, and soon maybe no coach. People say that Boston must be crazy to fire Doc, but Doc Rivers has finally has his end with the Celtics. He has lead his team to some amazing playoff runs but in the end he didn't come through this time around. He had some awful subbing in Game 7, (but it also didn't help Perkins was out) and the lineups never seemed to mesh together on the floor.
Along with Doc, there is also Ray Allen. Ray choked. Thats all you can say. Truthfully he put up some awful numbers except for the ridiculous Game 2 with all those 3's, but when it came down to it he didn't deliver. Now, Boston would be crazy to get rid of him because Ray IS one of the all time greats, but the management in Boston could be crazy enough to do so.
Do I agree with getting rid of Doc and Ray? No...not neccesarily but if they do, the Celtics will be a whole different team and who knows if that new team could ever make the Finals again... With Rondo leading the way maybe they can...Maybe even Nate Robinson will step up...Nobody knows, but the offseason will soon reveal what is in store for the stuggling Celtics...................

Will Rondo even be enough to lead the team to victory if the older players can't pull there weight? They need a second leader.
I agree a second leader is necessary! But the question is who will step up!
Paul and Rondo will lead. The Celtics are not done!
Go Celtics!
