December 26th, 2006 D-West Wins Starting Job Back

Delonte West

Celtics third year guard Delonte West has won his starting point guard job back. He will start tonight in Denver, and it will be his job until Doc tells us otherwise. Hopefully this is the big confidence booster that brings Delonte back to last year’s status, where he was consistant, a fan favorite, and most likely the 3rd best player on the team.

This will, of course, moves Sebastian Telfair (who has started in all 25 games this year) to the bench with the second unit. Maybe that will turn out better as well, with the younger players alongside him running and bringing energy. That fits Sebastian’s style, so maybe when Pierce gets back, Sebastian will have a lot of success with Wally Szczerbiak and Gerald Green alongside him on the wing.

Good luck and congratulations, Delonte!
