An emotional meteorite, Ronny has played some incredibly valuable minutes this year for our team. His arthritic knee, however has had him on the bench resting for almost half the season. He's made some huge defensive plays for us in big games with his impeccable timing and quick reactions in the paint.

Have we ever needed him more than we need him in this series? No, we haven't.

Certainly the strongest of our front court players, Big Shel can be effective through physicality and pestering of his opponents. He gives up 70 pounds against The Big Smegma, and that's when we'll need his physical capabilities the most.

Jared Jefferies

Heralded as a 'defensive specialist', Jefferies has had no better opportunity to prove it than the one forthcoming. He is our longest defender, and while we all want him to guard Rondo, that's not really a reality. We need his size against Boston and if he can't bring some sort of disruptive presence to Boston's interior offence, he'll be more of a burden than a boon as we sacrifice offence in his presence.

We give up so much size and weight. There is literally NO real advantage for us at the 5.

All we can ask is for total effort and a penchant for toughness.

This is a huge advantage for Boston. The can rake up fouls at will and really disrupt any form of interior defensive presence against the 'stunted' Knicks
