\"Doc<\/a><\/p>\n

Every morning, we compile the links of the day and dump them
\nhere… highlighting the big storyline. Because there’s nothing quite
\nas satisfying as a good morning dump.<\/em><\/p>\n

“One of the things we made clear is that you’ll be playing [based] on
\nyour defense,” Rivers said. “If we made anything clear [Monday], it’s
\nthat you can make 10 [3-pointers] in a row, but if you’re not getting
\nstops, you’re going to come sit next to me. That’s the way it has to
\nbe. We have to get back to thinking of ourselves as a defensive team.”<\/span>

ESPN Boston:\u00a0 Doc Rivers: Enough Talk<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n

Taken at face value, this is great.\u00a0 It’s a strong message to send to the team.\u00a0 “Play defense, or sit.”<\/p>\n

However, this is Doc Rivers we’re talking about here.\u00a0 He’s notorious for saying one thing to the media and then letting that slide come game time.\u00a0 I don’t know if he’s just telling us what we want to hear or if he just forgets once the ball is tipped… but I’ll throw this in the “I’ll believe it when I see it” pile.<\/p>\n

If Doc sees a guy get burned a couple of times because he has just decided to stop playing D… then he’s got to sit.\u00a0 If he doesn’t, then this is an empty threat.<\/p>\n

By the way, when you look at that quote and you see “you can make 10 3-pointers in a row, but if you’re not getting stops, you’re going to come sit next to me”… do you think that was prefaced by “Hey Rasheed”?

Coming up, Page 2… where I need your help shooting a commercial<\/strong><\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

ESPN is bringing their RV to All Star weekend and I want to go there and shoot a Red’s Army commercial.\u00a0 Now… I’m sure the INSIDE of the RV I’m gonna see is not like the inside of this one.<\/p>\n

BUT…<\/p>\n

That doesn’t have to stop us.\u00a0 Let’s all put our heads together and see if we can come up with something.\u00a0 Hopefully I can shoot something quick on Friday and cut it up before the end of the weekend.<\/p>\n

Shoot me some ideas in the comments.<\/p>\n
