That's where the game was lost.  I lost the count of how many possesions we wasted, trying to isolate RAllen on MWilliams or PP/KG even Wallace on whomever.  It was totally ridiculous how we stopped moving the ball on a desperation move by MBrown.  The guy was clueless and we showed him an out.   >:(

I am still fuming.  Can't believe we let this one go....

I thought it was a good move by Brown.

It's interesting... a lot of cavs fans don't think that Anthony Parker had much to do with limiting Rondo in the second half. From some of the Cavs blogs, it seems like what worked was a combination of Rondo picking up his 4th foul, the cavs making buckets so not many opportunities for Rondo in transition, Mo putting pressure on Rondo's defense, Shaq in the paint giving those hard fouls, and the Celtics mysteriously taking the ball out of Rondo's hands and putting it in Pierce's ice-cold hands.

Mike Brown shouldnt be given any credit either way on the move. It was the Celtics that ruined their own game plan... You really think Anthony Parker can contain Rondo? Rondo really wasn't given the opportunity to play against him because Doc took the ball out of his hands and stopped feeding KG in the post. For what reason I have no idea.

I don't think the move stoped Rondo's production - at least not in the way it was desinged to do.  The Cs just got sucked into playing Isolation for no other reason than say...Ray is taller than Mo.
