Bill Simmons does a good job explaining the terrible coaching performance of Doc Rivers last night. Rivers has this illogical stand against rookies. They make one mistake and they don't play for the rest of the game. He does this despite Al Jefferson being better than Blount and LaFrentz and that Antoine Walker actually might need rest. Marcus Banks and the rookies helped get the Celtics to the playoffs, and, now that the playoffs are here, they barely play.
If Rivers were coaching the 1980 Lakers would he have allowed Magic to play more than ten minutes a game? Would he have played Cassell and Horry in the Rocket's first championship?
