This the worst effort I've seen from the team this year.

Worst half all season I reckon. Boston plays the way every young team should play. Coincidentally we don't play the same way.

Dude wtf are you talking about, Zeller can shoot. Let me guess if he just let him have an open 10 footer without contesting you would have just copied the "he's a lazy defender" post you already have on your clipboard and pasted that for your post.
No, running with a hand up is one thing. Flying at him, leaving the ground is stupid. If he beats you on a 10 footer so be it.
There's literally a thread on this board complaining about him doing exactly what you're suggesting he do. He'll never win with y'all.

Time to watch Steph. I shall check in in the fourth.
We need a KG type player to put the fear of god into our guys. Very content with whatever way the game goes. Win or Loss.

Are you saying it's about quality of players and not effort? That's crazy if so.

Leaving Pau Gasol or Boogie open is different than Tyler garbage heap Zeller.

By the way, he never left the ground and did in fact close out with a hand up on Zeller's strong hand. But hey let's not let facts get in the way of an over the top rant.

If KCP is hurt, no playoffs. If KCP is ok soon-ish, I'm still very worried about a slow slide into the battle for the 8th seed.

There's a Kardashian marathon on E! I really didn't see the play, just not a fan of Dre's game.

Big shout to Boston's sweep kids for allowing that to happen. Round of applause.

We get destroyed by big shooters all of the time. Remember Jon Leuer going off for 20 in December? Or Meyers Leonard dropping 17 on us in November? Last game Brook Lopez killed us with his shooting, too. Drummond cannot give people these shots, they are all NBA talents.
