Um...You realize that i wasnt bahsing the team. I was proud of the team most of the year because we HAD injuries and still won 54 games. The only thing i said is that in the playoffs i felt we should have gone farther IMO.
How, I mean we got CRUSHED on the boards through out the entire series, a healthy amare and sheed is easily 14 boards pg and when you get zero from kidd, it's an easy understanding.. I'm not saying you were bashing that roster, I just don't think your looking at the entire picture..
They build the team to beat miami and overlook the bulls and pacers...To make matters worse, do you think we address the rebound issue..The bulls also clobbered us on the boards through out the season and KG (during the 1st rnd) avg a ridiculous 15 Rbs pg against us, and 8pg against everybody else during the season
This roster we have now is a straight MDA roster..WHY?? Cause melo talked about needing a second scorer..well, we gotta keep o boy happy..Instead of heading out and searching the basketball earth for a ben wallace or rodman like player, we looked at our struggles offensively in the playoffs and decided to add more offense, when everybody with basketball sense knows..in the playoffs REBOUNDING AND DEFENSE WINS SERIES
