Not sure about our offense

Umm right now our back court is Kidd and brewer. How the heck does our offense don't improve with 2 penetrating guards, who also can hit the open shot???

Like they say in boxing "everybody has a plan until they get hit in the face." Thats what those teams did to win.

That will be this teams ultimate downfall. They can't control their emotions.

i think its less about emotions, more about the offense having no system ... it's all very ad-hoc... a back to the basket scorer would help

That was a big non call at home. Down by 5 , with 36 secs to go. If they called that 5 sec violation it could have been very different. We could have made it one possession game.

Yeah Guard Play killed us tonight. And Melo succumbing to mind games by Garnett

Best way to defend melo is by being physical with him, Even if you get into foul trouble it will mess him up for the rest of the game mentally. Once melo is mentally gone he reverts back into last year melo.

On the bright side we could be the Fighting Irish losing 28-0 at the half of the BSC championship game.

Its very concerning. Celtics also played mind games with Melo to make it even worse. We really shoulda had this.

The offense is fine when we have a point guard who can run PNR. We dont have that right now and its a big staple in our offense...

I think we were up for the challenge tonight..we just lost. Sometimes you just lose with no blame. Celtics play'd extremely hard and the refs let both teams play. Pierce hit some tough shots and Melo didn't. He might have been fouled on some of those shots but he was playing so emotional and reckless the refs weren't gonna call that. Amare looked good on offense which was encouraging. We definitely missed Felton in a game like this. If not only to get the ball up in a quick manner. Prigs was brutal.

I agree. This team will continue to play .500 ball until they can fix their defense.
