everytime i see kg shoot he bricks his shot. whats the deal? why doesnt he post up anymore? its so incredibly frustrating. How many times has he got fouled this year compared to last year? He isnt trying to draw fouls, those free throws could really add up...

One play that was really frustrating yesterday was when he got the offensive rebound, then dribbled out of the paint only to shoot a wild fadeaway instead of just dunking or taking it hard to the rim.. That's when I realized... KG's gone!

KG hasn't had a chance to brick, he hasn't been shooting!  The Mavs game was the first time all season he has looked confident with his shot. How many years has that shot been money?  He hasn't lost it yet, all he needs to do is keep taking it.

Nobody likes bricks, but all great players go through slumps. I agree he's not posting up as much as we've seen him in the past, but I think he's deferring a bit to Jermaine, and I also think he's more motivated to post up when his jumpers are going down, though that may seem contrary.

this is one of the most frustrating things i've seen from the Celtics this year. KG is one of the most versatile post players in the league. he has a plethora of post moves to keep defenders on their toes, but he refuses to bang on the block anymore. we should run our offense through him in the post if we can get him to take more shots. it would do wonders for Rondo, Ray, and PPs offensive games.

he was short on his shots....no lift ...can't jump , won't grab a rebound with PLEASE TWO HANDS , no run out on break.... he aged 10 years in 6 months.

Look Garrnet got "OLD" really fast .... he was moving in slow motion........it hurt to watch....and PP looked brain dead and confused... >:(

This is all about HORRIBLE habits coming home to roost.

Its hopeless discussing KG with basketball watchers but you coaches out there know he has always had poor rebounding fundamentals. He also is a reluctant low post guy who actually is an exceptional low post guy when he tries(See Rasheed Wallace.)Well now he is on a team that desperately needs boards and low post players and of course he can't do it. And even with the injuries, all that had to happen was for him to try, ie, block out your man, actually try for a board, go into the post within 8 feet, make a move. His ridiculous bluster fools very few folks now. He has his dough so I think he really doesn't care but if his legacy really crashes he has himself to blame and no one else. Its not too late, I keep thinking, but it seems he just doesn't want to snap out of it or change
