Another home game, another set of away announcers on League Pass. Why!!! :'(

try checking the other LP channels. I'm in LA and I have both away and home channels.

looks like Rondo's gonna get 10 assists in the 1st quarter.

Rondo 6 assists in the first 8 minutes

Also, Sully has 3 quick rebounds
Rondo is clearly still hampered by the ankle (as he should be). Out there solely to be distributor and floor general. It's pretty evident that he doesn't have his usual speed and quickness. But 1/2 Rondo better than no Rondo.

Sully can be very deadly in repetitive pick-and-pop action.

Nice quarter here - good energy for the beginning of a matinee game.

I completely agree, but in that case I thought it was a good double team because the shot clock was winding down and DeRozan seemed like he was beginning to get into a rhythm.  Raptors ended up with a long 2 at the end of the shot clock.

I agree in some regard, but I'm of the theory (other than a bit weak perimeter defense) we're constantly over helping on this team, which is leading to opposite bigs having dominating presences.

One of our biggest strengths has always been guarding teams straight up. The only player that should be helped is Terry.

What I don't know why we don't do more is give the ball to Green in at the 3 point arc (at the height of the free-throw line) and run an ISO for him there. He's had great success in that spot, either with drawing fouls, emphatic dunks, or finding open men for corner 3s.

Agreed, not sure why they don't do this every time he draws a slower footed PF.

I mean, with KG on the floor it's not like the 5 can cheat down to help.

I'd run it against just about anyone he has on. His size assures that the defender has to guard him close in the perimeter since he can shoot it from there, and he has a great first step.
