don't worry about Paul thread

[wiley]

Okay, Paul hasn't got it going on offense.  Big deal.  He's good enough to help in other ways, and if we play well in other ways, it should be a non-factor.  He still has a load of things to do out there and can influence the game in any number of ways.

So Paul, don't get down about your struggles in this series, keep a smile on your face and lead us in any way that you can. 
Others will cover for you until the offense comes around....

Lebron is a beast.....just ride the beast as best you can, inspire your team and let the chips fall where they may....

he's not leading in any other department. pauls having an awful series, he shouldnt put a smile on his face. he can't stop lebron, he cant create his own shot. rondo is our leader on the court. paul cannot be considered the first option anymore. sorry

what like they did at the end of game 1  and all last night? 

[shuttles20]

exactly. this is just someone who is in denial. this is the playoffs. you better feel sorry for yourself. your suppose to be a leader and your doing s*it. terrible

I don't care how many points Paul scores. Just take good shots and play hard. Rebound and play defense.

Against the Cavs our best weapons for initiating offense is Rondo and Garnett. The offense needs to be run through one of those 2 for the vast majority of the game. Cleveland has demonstrated constantly that they can't stop those two.

Sure, I'm not worried about Paul I'm worried about our whole team.

I wish Doc would take Paul of Lebron Immediately. Lebron is going off and its killing Pauls confidence. Paul missed bunnies from the foul line last game. Run some easy plays for Paul and he will get going.

From listening to Paul's postgame interview,he's not worried about his game coming around.

....

It is a big deal. We're halfway through the series and he hasn't had anything better than an okay game. And that's being charitable. He needs to show up tomorrow or game five is going to be the end of our season.

Paul is too good of a player to play bad for too long. I have no doubt in my mind, that he'll leave his mark on this series.

[Drucci]

Well I don't know what's wrong with Paul (it looks like he is the one with an injured elbow actually...) but he has to step up right now because otherwise it's too late. I hope he has a big game tonight.

Paul Pierce will be fine. The man could've scored 30 Friday night, and it wouldn't have helped.

At the rate that the team was playing defense, we would've lost that game, regardless of what Pierce could've done.

Sure he hasn't had a good series. We need the man, but we also need the rest of the team to step up. The offense is there, but we waited too late as a team in playing defense on friday.

Masked profanity is not allowed here.

Have a Tommy Point.

[celticinorlando]

can't win without PP getting some points.

halftime score proves my point..sort of and nearly....

Look, this thread is to encourage Paul to play well in other ways while not scoring...instead of letting poor offense put his whole game in a funk (seems to be happening...)

So Let's hope he reads this post on his cell during the next timeout....
