perimeter players' league

[winsomme]

The dominant talk the last few years has been that the NBA has turned into a perimeter players league.

I hope this series is showing people that you can't win consistently in the playoffs if you get destroyed in the paint on a nightly basis.

The reality is that this series is a culmination of the entire playoffs. The Cs have gotten killed inside in every series and were limping into the ECF because of it.

If Danny can't figure out how to get this team stronger on the blocks, we are just going to keep hitting this same wall. We can't keep relying on Marcus Smart taking charges as the basis of our interior defense, and we can't keep giving up multiple possessions on missed shots because we can't get a rebound to save our life.

This is three seasons in a row that we can't rebound in the playoffs.

Agree that we need front court upgrades. Their style of play doesn't help the rebounding either.

Everyone who has watched this team all year knows that their biggest deficiency is a big who can defensive rebound and protect the rim. 

That was supposed to be Amir Johnson but he has been badly exposed in the playoffs as nearly useless.
