Lopez ...simply changes the game , the way our players play.....they hesitate play out of sorts, do all kinds of bone head plays avoid the paint ......when Lopez is in there
I ll say if we had Asik or Gasol or Hibbert or Howard .....on the Celtics we win the game
Otherwise ...we can't expect guys like Sully and Bass to have freakish Lebron James type game at will ......every now and then ...Green, Sully and smaller players can take Lopez or Duncan , or Howard ...but not on a consistent basis....not enough to win a title ....aye a few game a year
I knew we'd lose this game.......the panick, desperation , PP came back......all the stops taken back to win this game.......but with Lopez they will win best of a series every time .....
We an t winning a series without a serious center , No matter who the rest of the team is ....
Without a Duncan , Howard , Gasol , Noah, Chandler type ......we will never bet better than a fourth seed.
Or wait till a center accidentally falls into Boston.....About 2020
