So many forced shots by IT, the most worthless 20 points ever. Too many turnovers, too many drives to the paint and getting stuffed. Our spacing on off is so bad. IT isn't a player that can put the team on his shoulders in the playoffs. He is being game planned for by the bulls.
Stop it. You apparently can't critique IT right now (or ever).
That's not what I'm saying. He did force some shots up. You want to know why? Because the next best player that can get their own shot up is Avery Bradley. The entire defense focuses on him and nobody else and he has no other firepower beyond himself to make runs. He's this entire offense and I hope he sits in game 3 and 4 so that the Bulls can beat us by 30 each game.
IT isn't a good defender, but he is not the reason we are losing. If anything he's the only reason beyond Smart that we are even staying in these games.
Man's putting up freaking 25-30 points per game in the playoffs after his sister just died and you still blame him for everything.
