Delonte West did not participate in this morning’s shootaround and is not expected to play tonight, according to A. Sherrod Blakely. West (sprained ankle) and Shaquille O’Neal (old as hell) are both considered questionable for Game One against the New York Knicks, though Danny Ainge has said Shaq will play in that game.

“We’re planning as of right now of [Shaq] practicing Thursday or Friday and being ready to play for Game 1 of the playoffs,” Ainge told the Boston Globe a couple days ago. “I have every confidence that he will be ready and play in the playoffs.”
