coming back from injury

[rollie mass]

with crowder out and jerebko and a portion of kelly back,the bad portion
playing into shape means tired legs,awkward moves,poor timing and a altered shot and timidity on boards
so celts down two players that are crucial for defense a switching power forward who hits the three and spreads the floor and crowder
 then with kellys game you might as well play 4 players on offence and on boards useless
its not kelly's fault
its what happens coming back it not just injury time  its the negitive value coming back
 just is tough to watch

good points. i noticed with olly that he still passes well, sets picks, etc. but his shot is not falling the way i expected.

then again, the upside, such as it is, is that everyone should be ready for the playoffs and the rust should be gone. plus, some rest time now could be beneficial later on.

ha, ha...for this thread i am playing the "glass half full" role.

the last two games he has had trouble closing anything near basket -blocks and walks and some very poor inside passes not chosen but forced by his inability to finish-i am not criticizing but reporting unpleasant circumstances
-these guys are highly tuned athletes but miss 14 games it takes time to get game legs and back to automatic-i only hope jeerbko has not reinjured that injury from detroit-on a better note roziers defence is getting better-massimino used to say" down and dirty" can't imagine how many hours of lateral movement and up and back
-we had to play down for 40 minutes of full court pressure man to man help defence-it was like modern day ice but unheard of in 1965 no zones-and you never heard communication back then-help right ,help left watch the screen  pure intimidation
