I am NOT willing to throw in on this series, but we've got to do some things differently:
1. Find people who will attack the rim. Bench those who will not. That goes for Pierce. Either get to the foul line, Captain, or sit down.
2. Give Perkins a warmup jacket and bury him on the bench. I'll go with Brown and Powe before I'll watch another Gerald Green-like stupid performance in the middle. And I'll take it a step further: Perkins should be traded in the off-season. We cannot win a title with him.
3. Remind Rondo of his role. MOVE THE BLEEPING BALL FIRST, SHOOT IT SECOND. Allen, Pierce and Garnett are shooting options. You are not.
4. Keep up the defensive intensity. It will pay off eventually.
