I feel like your 2 best players play the same position and your interior defense is the main issue. You can hide defensive liabilities at the guard position when you have good interior guys, like the Celtics do with Ray Allen and Eddie House. It's just way to easy to drive and dish, drive and dunk, etc. You can get anywhere on your team.

Offensively, the Raps are great. You have the 5th best offense and the worst defensive team in the league.

Wallace was excellent, but Rondo triple-doubles and plays 44 minutes with more steals than turnovers and no fouls.

That's some pretty good playing right there.

Bargs and Bosh, while both talented, will never work. Neither is a good enough defender to compensate for the other. Bargnani's inability to grasp help defense is pathetic. Colangelo has been trying to put a band -aid over the team's lack of interior D for the past few years, and needs to be fired. The one time he tried to address it by trading for O'Neal, he decided to fire Mitchell because he kept benching Colangelo's binky.

The signing for Turkoglu was hilarious. The signing of Triano was even more atrocious.

Thanks for your input guys.
I think Bargnani and Bosh can work together. Bargnani's man to man d has drastically improved, his help d is still poor, but he can improve it. I agree about the Turkoglu signing though. Horrible. And no, your wrong about Jermaine. We HAD to get rid of him, even though provided us with some interior d toughness. Hopefully Reggie Evans can provide us with some of that when he gets back.

Good win. Great game by Rondo. Rasheed was amazing. 29 points, 8 rebounds, on fire from the line and on 3's and clutch shots when we needed them. Great to see Wallace play this well.

I've been saying for years that the biggest missing piece on the Raps is a Perkins type center. They need someone inside to play D, get boards and bring toughness. The Raps would be smart to make a play for Haywood this summer.
