  Every time Doc puts a couple of guys that are not in the mid 30's in the game with Rondo we start to get into transition and go on a run.

This lead evaporating is all on the starters. It was them at the end of the 2nd and now to start the half that has cost them.

This starting five has become a jump-shooting-mania-a-thon whenever Rondo doesn't push the pace or takes over them game.

I think I have changed my mind regarding this team
I'm going to cheer them on and I'm going to be positive and not dwell on the anger like some, but this team is cooked. If they have to jump shoot all the time now because they haven't got the energy to take it to the paint, what is going to happen in March and April when the condensed season catches up to them.

Nick, don't you think a few line up changes fixes a lot of these problems. I truly believe that Danny has given Doc the pieces. When certain players are injured, we see it.[/size]

No. I don't.

He's been forced to use all sorts of lineups because of injuries and yet, Moore takes jump shots, Johnson takes jump shots, Pietrus takes jump shots, Dooling takes jump shots, Stiemsma takes jump shots, and even Daniels has been taking jump shots even though he is a bad outside shooter.

Wilcox, Rondo and Bradley seem to be the only player that goes to the hole.

That's not enough and there's nothing Doc will do that can change jumpshooters convinced their next outside shot is going in to stop taking outside shots.

At least some of the jumpshooters run the floor like gazelles.

We still have a chance to pull this out.  We took the big run from the Bulls, and Rondo getting wilcox involved, ray waking up.
This is a winnable game.  cmon guys

What kind of up and down game is this? I saw we were up in the 2nd, came back later and we were down 51-35.  I now check in and we are only down 56-51.

[nickagneta]

No one wants to say it but the biggest mistake Danny made in the last few years along with not resigning Tony Allen(I CAN NOT BELIEVE I JUST WROTE THAT) is sign JO to 2 years for $13 million

[BASS_THUMPER]

[Chief]

I'm not saying JJJ is not making defense mistakes but Boozer is killing everyone and it appears Doc is taking it out on the rookie.
