'Giddy on the subject of his bench'
Last night could have been a disaster for the Celts.
It wasn't. The bench was
simply great. It was a highly encouraging evening, even while Big Baby's fight was highly discouraging. Leave it to
Doc to put Glen's woes into perspective:
I’ll make this point: Baby’s not a bad person. He made a bad mistake and he made a bad judgment. Unfortunately it only takes one second or five seconds to make a mistake, and you have to live with it, but he’s not a bad kid. He’s growing; he’s maturing. Obviously he has some ways to go, but we want to help him do that. ... I really feel that’s part of my job, to help him become a better person and not put himself in ways like this.
I fully understand why Wyc and Danny are upset. The suspension is a rational I'm-Not-Going-To-Pay-Someone-Millions-Of-Dollars-To-Act-Like-A-Fool response to stupidity. But they need to take deep breaths, listen to Doc and move on for the sake of the team.
