Poll: I don't mind losing as long as...

[coco]

I'd like more KO and Sully

Are you happy with the effort?

What would you like more of?

You can vote for any two options.

....or add yours

Lee has been atrocious and there was a blatant lack of scoring toward the end. The answer seems obvious - Marshon Brooks. Don't trust Crawford and Wallace is not a go to scorer from 3. Lack of 3pt shooting is biggest weakness so far.

Lee has been atrocious

I thought Lee looked good at times last night.

6-11 for 13 points.  I hardly think he was the reason we lost.  Anytime you get double figures from a guy off the bench it is a good thing.

We could not score because AB is not a PG.   I think AB played a decent game but he could not lead a horse to water when it comes to starting the half court offense.


They played great in the first half last night.   It will be hard to win games when they are close because right now we have no go to guy.   I was very pleased with the first quarter and second quarter.    I don't mind losing I had a blast watching Vitor.

I agree with this.  Lee was fine last night and I don't expect that we are going to look back on the season and say that Lee was the problem.  And even if Lee is the problem, Brooks is definitely not the solution.

We could not score because AB is not a PG.

I think you are being too hard on Bradley.  Miami has won two championships without a prototypical PG.  The problem is we just are not that good.  I think you will see when Rondo come back and we are still not that good.

Half court we struggle because of his lack of skill at PG.   I agree we don't have point forward skill guy like LeBron.   But MIA is an extreme and not the norm.   Just watch how badly we looked in the fourth.  AB is a great defender and ok at offense at the SG  but he does not cut it at PG, period.   Things will be better with RR back but we looked lost with every one but Vitor hanging on the perimeter.   Some of this is on Stevens, too.   But we don't have the horses.   Do you recall how well we looked at times with Pressey running the offense.   I think AB is a better player than Pressey but Pressey is a better PG.

So far this year with Bradley or Lee at PG, we have played fairly well for 5 out of 8 quarters and played pretty badly for 3 of eight quarters.  Bradley was -3 against TOR and +9 against MIL.  In fact at times with Bradley at the point we have looked really good (20 point lead).

Bradley is not the "answer" and he is not going to be our savior and may well be best suited as a 3rd guard combo guard but he is also not the problem at this point.

More of KO, More of Faverani.

We need to see what our youth can do.  I think we know Sully's game, and he's a keeper and needs minutes out there.  I want to showcase Humphries and Wallace as well for any trade takers, but I also have the patience to just wait out the contracts if the right move doesn't present itself.

Ainge has us setup perfectly, IMO.  Just a matter of getting our youth experience.

please add to the poll....

consistently more ball movement and less jump shooting in the half court offense.

that is what killed them. they moved the ball well early in the game and then got lazy in the 4th quarter.

you dont have to have a pg to have players making the extra pass and cutting to the basket.

Wow .... 2 games , and only.  EIGHTY to go 

With this sorry team we are just going though the motions
