Delonte West told ESPNBoston.com on Sunday that his sprained right ankle is still sore, but he plans to play Wednesday against Indiana.
"There's still a little bit of soreness in [the ankle]," said West. "[I still] don't have my explosiveness. I've been able to push off of it; I can gingerly go through drills, but it's not putting that game pressure on it. A few more days should be sufficient (ESPN)."
If he isn't 100% then why the hell is he going to play. I just don't see Doc letting him go out there without his "explosiveness". It just seems like is stupid with the way the Celtics have approached injuries all season.
"There's still a lot of season left," said Rivers. "If Delonte didn't play a game this year, then played well in the playoffs, you would say he had a successful season. At the end of the day, be available at the end (ESPN)."
Exactly Doc. So, either West is making a bigger deal then he needs to about this "pain", or Doc will end up sitting him. The Celtics are getting healthier (knock on wood) by the day, and once they get everyone back they are going to be unstoppable.
