Bout to the point where I could just about care less.

I've been watching on delay so stayed away from the board to avoid spoilers. Caught up to real time now.

Figured the board would be in full melt down mode.

Without going back and re-reading everything in the thread, what's the common themes?

Too many pointless turn overs?
No rim protection?
Biyombo pulled down 20 boards last night?
Lamb is clueless?
Lin's super lose handles?
Kemba looking cowardly Vs a midget?

Every team needs an elite rebounder.

No they don't. Charlotte let theirs walk to Toronto.


Ouch, but true. On that contract too.

I like what I've seen from Frank though. People were saying he wouldn't translate weren't doing thei research.

Edit: Case in point, pretty sure he just got fouled...

seriously

if we wanted a center with zero range to rebound, defend, set hard screens, and be entirely a product of what the opposing defenses allow offensively then we should've kept biyombo

im not even mad, just laughing at it all

like the last boston game, Cliff has the offense run through whoever avery bradley is guarding. seems kinda stupid. what's the point of 'multiple playmakers' cliff talks about if youre going to initiate offense against their best wing defender? should be attacking IT or the bench wing that enter the game. but cliff doesnt seem to think in terms of matchups like that.

Cliff doesn't really do in-game coaching. He'll probably blame this L on the shootaround again

so far during this losing streak Scott Skiles has become my least favorite coach for leaving in his starters when Cliff inserted the scrubs down 20, James Harden became my least favorite star because all he does is create foulorgies, and Isaiah Thomas became my least favorite midget basketball player because of the ghost phantom push out of bounds

our best playmakers are at the same spots as their best defenders

and the one area of the court that we utterly neglect is the biggest weakness of their defense

i mean.... i'm one of the biggest critics of kemba here and even i'm not about to rag on him for this.
