Another game, another opposing big man having a field day in the paint against the Celtics. They need a defensive presence down low in the worst way.
First things first, you Greek?
Now to your comment. Sure, that was part of the reason we lost.
But I do not think it was the main let alone the only reason.
We really had a poor offensive performance and had Thornton not had his best game so far, this could have been really ugly. Bobcats (sic) are a bad team, we sucked at offence and we were not punished hard, just bcs they are so bad. If we played against say the Cavs like that, oh the pain!
Second, our D overall was not good. It's not like our perimeter D was good, at least as far as I can tell.
Also, plenty of silly TOs like Rondo getting the technical foul, Green's travelling.
Overall, IMO many things went wrong not just this one.
