Scouts know everything about every player in the game. By the time we figure it out they are already moving on to another player. It's up to the players to implement it. But let's do whatever we can to take the blame off the players and blame the coach's and the scouts. We have the best team in the league if our coach's and scouts would just not be so stupid.

There is a slight possibility that the plan was to force Milt to beat you. There have been times where I have forced penetration by guards because they make poor decisions when they penetrate. As a fan this is difficult to know. Maybe the scouts missed it. Maybe the coach's went over it before the first game, and then in anger reiterated it in the film room and still the players didn't follow. Maybe that particular coach/scout told his team to go under the screen in the past and Palacio killed them. Maybe they were worried about being forced to switch. Maybe they were worried about creating bad habits by having their players relax on screens and go underneath them(a Marbury trademark by the way)All these are possible plus a million other scenarios that we have no way of knowing because we are not in the locker room.

Every announcer, analyst, scout and coach's through the media have told TT to drive to the basket. For 8 years coach's have been telling TT to reobund more. Yet he still doesn't rebound and it's taken him almost 12 games to start taking the ball to the hoop instead of settling for jumpshots. Yet you think the players always listen and implement what the coach's and scouts tell them.

The pick and roll is the most difficult play in the game to guard. Why? Because no matter who is running it, there are so many variations and counters to your defense that if they run it right you cannot guard it. The NBA had 20 years to figure out how to guard Stockton and Malone, yet they never did. You'd think no matter how good they were someone would have figured it out in 20 years.

OMG, its Milt Palacio. If you can't make adjustments against him while playin 2 straight games, then as a player, you are really really dumb. Or you are not getting the correct advice. This is an instance when it is easy to adjust. Palacio is terrible, one of the worst backup PG in the league, and you know why? Cause he can't shoot at all. Why in the world do you go over sceens or switch? Or trap him? This is just simple team basketball with a coach. You see somethig and make adjustments. The fact that no adjustmen has been made, and the fact that the team is routinely unprepared for matchups, as in it took us 2 and a half quarters to double team O'Neal against Indy, same with Garnett.

You have to be flexble and ready to adjust. In the NBA a team can't play the same way every game, against every player. Habits have nothign to do with this.

You should be able to guard a Palacio gype scrub when you have 2 gams to get it right. Thats it. About as simple as it gets.

My guess is that the Knicks and Toronto and had bigger fish to fry and probably didn't spend anymore than 30 seconds on Palacio in the screening room, but again we have no idea. We can only speculate.

Yea leaving Bonner open(Got him on my fantasy team) when he's shooting 62% from the field is idotic. Some SCOUTS

If you had MJ putting fear in your opponent by driving and dunking making madd shots Steve Kerr is the last person along with Paxon that you are worried about.
