please fill me in (down here in Vol land) about kevin garnett's condition ............ i understood ainge to say "some soreness around the knee."
so which is it - a thigh bruise or more problems with garnett's knee ?
(not that garnett's absence is any justification for this team's bipolar personality)
From what I understand, tenn_smoothie, it's just a thigh bruise for KG. Doc wanted to keep him out as a precaution from what I understand.
thank you.
now, about that Garden bipolar syndrome .......... has there been any explanation for this team's lack of effort at home ? if they were also up & down on the road, it would make more sense, but these home performances border on the bizarre.
i have two thoughts ...........
rondo, with the title and some recognition, has lost just a little hunger and gained a little of the wrong type of arrogance.
rasheed wallace is not good for this team's chemistry. not meaning he's a bad guy in the locker room - but he has some negativity to him and a certain type of selfishness - not on the court with the ball, but just sorta, if it comes down to it, he's not a "if you go, we all go" type of player. remember his quote, "the only people who i care what they think about me is my wife and kids." in the end, sheed ain't an ubuntu guy.
Yeah I wish I could explain the play at home this season myself.
Now as for Sheed..well he's Sheed. I really believe in the long run he will prove his worth. Throughout his career, his teammates have loved him.
From the positive side, at least he is listening to Doc more. He has seemed to have shifted his game from the three-line to the post a bit more.
And I think Rondo's played well last few weeks, IMO. Him and Pierce missing a few shots this game.
But so far...gotta give credit to Perk and Ray Ray.
