I would like everyone on here to write that same letter to Rondo, PP, Perk, and a whole host of other Celtic players who aren't giving the effort that they should. If you have watched Sheed throughout his career you'd know that he plays this aloof style. I would like him to box out on the weak side a bit better and not let guys like Varaejo continue to get weak side rebounds and put backs, but the guy has switched from only chucking threes to a lot more shots in the post.
He shot 215 threes through the end of January and then only 35 in Feb and only 17 through the last game. That is about half of the threes that he was shooting prior. Everyone whined about it and now that he has changed this everyone is still whining. Maybe you just have a personal grudge?!
Blame Sheed all you want, but the main reason we aren't playing well this year is the starters. THEY are the ones who should be getting the nasty letters.
Well, to state the obvious, Rasheed isn't THE problem, but he has been a big part of if. That much is clear. Why are we to give him a free pass for the first half of the season when all he did was shoot 3's? Why are we giving him a free pass now just because he's shooting less and still not hitting?
If you watched Sheed his whole career, he was always, at the very least, a strong defender. This year, that is simply not the case. He's pretty much been useless offensively and defensively not much better.
Rondo may have instances of laziness, but he is having a career year. Ray has a higher FG% than the championship year version of himself. Paul is shooting 46% (better than last year). Perk is averaging a career high in points and FG%. Rasheed has just flat out been a liability out there. Do the starters go through points when they have been lazy and bored? Sure, but overall, I think we all agree that outside of KG, everyone has played decently well. Certainly, no one has been nearly the disappointment that Rasheed has been. Unfortunate really, we have him for two more years too.
