Tired of seeing Sullinger chuck up the three

This is becoming like another toine situation.
Toine had a far superior handle and better quickness. And Sully has a better bball iq.

Besides being undersized power forwards, they are completely different players. Even the three point shot. Walker used to shoot so many bad threes. Sully takes most of his within the flow of the offense.

One guy that has really suffered from the Rondo trade is Zeller.   He should not be starting.
Struggling on offense and not even doing an average job on the defensive end.   I rather start KO again

I am now much more onboard with Smart's development path. It's becoming more clear he is working on pure PG skills and 3 point shooting. I expect next season he will work on his inbetween game which should feed off of his improved handles.

the similarity between the two is, they both can try to score in other ways than chuck up threes.   That last sec shot by Sully, was that necessary?

PAss it to a guy that can shoot it better than you, is the smarter play.

He keeps talking about lets stop playing "hero" ball. Yet he is the one trying to be the "hero"

He needs to play the way he did back when KG, Pierce were here.  Making his impact felt under the rim

I mean if the way he playing is not his choice than CBS needs to fix things.

Well this is what happens when you bring a numbers guy in to run the team. The numbers say mid range shots are less efficient then 3s and shots in the lane. Players like Sully and Smart who could have nice mid range games, get lost in the offense.

Has everyone calmed down about Crowder?

The offense looks so stagnant without Smart.

Stevens would had forced Garnett to stretch his automatic long twos to threes.

You don't enjoy watching AB turn the ball over repeatedly?

Does Griffin release the ball on his way down when he shoots? There is something funky about it that I just can't put my finger on.

What's the commentators problem with Stevens' age?
Is this the 45-years-in-the-League-never-got-passed-the-wconference-semi-finals complex in action?

He floats backwards when shooting and his shoulders look really tense.
