I agree GregB. I feel like we get killed on the boards when Posey is at the four.

The problem is we don't have the personnel to do that. Our rotation is thin in big men and Doc understandably doesn't want to use Powe or Baby with Perk because of spacing reasons. With the way our offense seems to b predicated on the drive and dish you want as few players in the paint as possible.

I honestly like how our offense and defense looked with both Powe and Big Baby out on the floor at the same time. Doc is scared to go back to this because he has some sort of problem with giving Baby minutes because he hasn't earned them in his mind. He has some sort of problem with Big Baby and I don't know what it is.

Q-Ross at the buzzer!

What's up with Tony Allen's shot?

I am sorry but until KG is back. You have to suck it up and play those 3 guys together. I am one of the biggest proponents of Inside/Outside combos. But not at the expense of rebounding and interior defense. We gave up a bunch of offensive rebounds that ultimately cost us the game last night.

Why was Posey so mad?

Banks2Pierce · Post #28 » by **Banks2Pierce** » Thu Feb 7, 2008 1:19 am

I think he feels that he got pushed.

GregB · Post #29 » by **GregB** » Thu Feb 7, 2008 1:19 am

He got tripped out of bounds and didnt get the call. Yet any semi close play against us is resulting in a foul so far.

Whew. Nice dunk by Powe.

ClipperDomination · Post #31 » by **ClipperDomination** » Thu Feb 7, 2008 1:22 am

Powe with a very nice slam.

Banks2Pierce · Post #32 » by **Banks2Pierce** » Thu Feb 7, 2008 1:26 am

One of those games where you have no idea what the call is when the whistle blows.

This team just is not playing well right now, especially defensively. Garnett's health is this teams MVP right now.

Sam I am is playing like a punk, and getting abused by Rajon...

that play reminded me of when TJ Ford got hurt earlier in the year, by accident, by al hortford.

GregB · Post #36 » by **GregB** » Thu Feb 7, 2008 1:39 am

Sam isn't making any friends in Boston. He prob doesnt enjoy Rondo destroying him off the dribble.

still want cassel n ow?

Post #38 » by **canman1971** » Thu Feb 7, 2008 1:41 am

Sam is probably trying to increase the chances that LA won't want to keep him around.

I really hope so...tough love I guess

Rondo >>> Cassell

Sam's definitely not doing himself any favors here. If he ends up here he's going to have to apologize to Rondo now and he's gonna have to sit behind Rondo who's a blossoming star.
