Im right here.

Cassell on West.
NOt a good matchup at all for Boston.
West is too quick. This was evident in
other games.

Rivers just does not trust Rondo.
But Rondo's defense is so much better.
The Cavs can run an offense through
a point guard with this matchup.

[quote=pgardn]Change their offensive strategy to what?
===================


"I have a really dumb suggestion.


Let's allow the point guard on the Cavaliers to bring the ball up and run a play...if we have one. Let The FROZEN ONE then run around trying to loose those 2-3 man teams guarding him.

Possibly there will be an open man or even James might shake loose.



I know this goes against all accepted basketball logic.....but just for the heck of it."

Very good D by Cleveland.
Points scored by Celts after it
mattered.

Lebron did a good job spreading
the ball around. And he actually placed
himself in good spots to get other people
open. He spaced himself very well
without the ball
This is encouraging.
Joe smith could not miss.
Z was on fire and showed
his dazzling speed on a pick and
roll with Lebron.

And Daniel Gibson showed again
why he is not a point guard.

Your PG had the mudman Sam Cassell on him.
Better hope Doc keeps that going.

The D was the key.

He played excellent d.
And he moved the ball around well.
Ran a pick and roll.

This is called patience.
THis is not an offensive scheme.
Reread my discussions with Horse of Course
about Lebron and spacing and driving head down.

Read mine about getting the ball to other players who can't shoot....and not running the offense through him...and then read the box score for Cleveland-----what game did you watch????

Lets not forget when they took him out they
went from 25 up to 18 up at somewhere around
the speed of light. Could not even get the ball
down the floor.

do you realize how nice it is to have a guy
in the game that you can inbound the ball
to that just goes up and gets it in a crunch? how much
trouble this immediately gets a team out of?
Lotta little things he can learn, and a lotta
little things he does very well that go unmentioned.

If Joe Smith has 3 more games like this...
And Rondo sits out and West does not
have to work bringing the ball up
the floor a lot of good things will happen.

I look for Rivers to reinsert Rondo to reek
havoc and forget about his offensive mistakes...

for a little while.

Does the box score mention the lob passes to
Lebron saving turnovers? Is there a category for
that?

You are too kind.

To yourself.

I am trying to stay above the 33% level posting ratio

The well known Pillgarden/Mortonsus stat that should
be in the boxscore.

"The D was the key."
=====

Oh ya....the Cavs held the Celts to about the average of the first 2 games.....but scored almost 35 above their average for the first 2.



I can't debate with headless horsemen...see ya latah.

Thats why you watch the game and dont rely
on stats only. That is the best defensive game
Cleveland has had in the series. I dont care about
the junk points. There is a diff. between playing
good D and the other team just shooting poorly.

The Cavs did a much better job on Cassell, on almost
every other player. Garnett will always get his on a team
that does not rely solely on his offense.

Their offense was much better.
They had an operational PG as I said.
Pray for Cassell again. And Joe Smith
playing way over his head.

The guy is unbelievable....

Beyond unbelievable.

the junk points.

I don't either....73 is pretty junky--I like 108 better...much better.

Oh...tonight the Celts 40% was not the same as their other 2 40%ers.....what's the word for beyond unbelieveable???


Somehow I was more impressed with our offense for this 3rd game.


The Cavs did a much better job on Cassell, on almost
every other player. Garnett will always get his on a team
that does not rely solely on his offense.

Lost in minutia.
