This season is reminding me more and more of 2013-2014, which as we all know was not a good season. Something has to change. I don't like our culture right now where we simply try and outscore opponents.

[blink]

So, once again another game decided by our poor defense and ridiculous lack of rebounding. It's still early in the season, but at what point does management finally do something about this rebounding and interior defense/presence issue?

Well we were a top 10 def last year with similar (maybe not as bad) rebounding issues.  Maybe as our def rounds into shape it will get better?  I am just grasping for straws.  Unfortunately, we don't have good rebounding bigs.  Until that changes, we are going to struggle.

I remember when people freaked out, because I suggested trading Rondo for a draft pick that could end up being Andre Drummond.   I was ready to blow it up and go young.

wow you must be the man

We have too many players that can score, but can't defend, and can defend but can't score. Throw in that we're really undersized everywhere, and lack rebounding.

Again...small ball is ok, tiny ball isn't, not in a league loaded with talented size.

Danny needs to realize its time to make a move to correct this.

No it's just funny that logical opinions often get labelled "crazy" here.   Sometimes, I like to hold up a grain of sand and hold it up to the sky as it obscures 10,000 galaxies.  It’s a useful exercise in perspective.   I got ridiculed for advocating trading Rondo for Steph Curry too.

I was just reminded of it as I saw Drummond beasting on us tonight.

He's developing nicely.  He's a half year older than Marcus Smart.  Will be interesting to see how much better he gets.
