We were fortunate enough that we made some pretty important threes but yeah it was a total mess with just Giannis out there. As I said in the GT we gotta find one more ball handler/shot creator from somewhere because you need at least 4 guys on the floor now that can create against these top defences.
Yes. So many possessions where Dame/Giannis are clearly exhausted, we spend 15 seconds dribbling in place, have a near turnover after a panic pass and throw up a terrible shot (with no one in place for an offensive rebound) Just absolutely wasting possessions. We’re not going to get away with that garbage against Boston.
What’s frustrating is that when we’re purposeful about getting into our actions quickly we normally get good shots. But if the defense only has to defend for 8 seconds instead of 20, and you do that 5-10 times a game more than what is necessary, you’re going to drown in bad math over time.
