Chemistry doesn't make you rotate better on defense because your knees are at 60%.
There is no mystery as to why we are bad... the anchor for our defense can't move laterally. This has a domino affect on our defense. Rondo used to get away with going for the steal but now he can't... but he still does.
Teams come in hungry because we are wounded and we talked so much trash the last 2 years that every game is a revenge game.
