DJ's FT shooting has really been tanking after a much better start

I can't stand looking at Isaiah Thomas' face. Dude is a Mayweather fan.

Celtics fans that tried to invade our place. They can go home and take the L, their Beat LA and MVP (Thomas) chants with them. Putos.

That was a great turn around. It was not looking good in the 3rd quarter (at least midway through). The defense in particular really stepped up. An added bonus was they shut up all of those Celtics fans

We are in real trouble when neither Blake nor Cp3 but Jamal freaking Crawford are setting the tone in offense. Luckily, it has been paying dividents for the last 2 games.

I think JJ is fatigued. He is almost 33. I think doc should rest him for a few games

Every team can use another guy to get going once in a while. Blake and CP have brought the consistency and stability in offensive production, so it is nice to have someone else giving that extra. It's not going to be Jamal every night, maybe another time it is Redick, or Austin, but it is nice.

Does JJ get that excuse on this team though? Jamal is older than him, and he's not that much older than CP and Mbah.

JJ has to expend a lot of energy running around off of screens to get open. Also, Crawford is a little bit of a physical freak to still be so quick at his age

I don't know if I buy it though, unless he comes out and says it's fatigue, I doubt it. Last season he struggled a little to start the season, nothing related to fatigue there he was just struggling a little. He then shot 49/46/97 the last 20 games of last season. Altogether in his last 59 games last season he shot 48/48/89. Kyle Korver a similar guy had his All-Star season at 33 years old.

I'm not saying 100% he couldn't be fatigued, but I don't know if that would be his own excuse. Maybe it is, I don't know, but it seems like Paul being out made it harder for him to have good games as no one could set him up the same way. That caused him to go into a bit of a slump, and now he's trying to dig himself out of it.

JJ was awful without Paul giving him open looks. I don't think he is fatigued, he can run around the court for days. I think his confidence may be down and his rhythm is a bit off as he looks out of sync.

cp3 is an outstanding passer and just as important he is a willing passer. he gets the pass to jj at just the right time. so I believe this is a huge factor and hopefully he will get going. they need his shooting to be a threat.
