Jason Terry is not soft.
Courtney Lee is not soft.
Chris Wilcox is not soft.
Leandro Barbosa is not soft.
I think we've seen enough of Sully to know that, whatever his other weaknesses, he's not soft.
Jeff Green? Yeah, he's been playing soft.
But the rest of the guys who've seen the court are not soft players. All but one of them are veterans who've been through the wars and never been accused of being soft in the past. If these guys are playing soft, Doc needs to look at himself in the mirror for why that may be. Before he starts throwing the players under the bus, could Doc explain exactly what the heck was going on with the 09-10 team that went 27-27 for the last two thirds of the season. Was that team "soft"?

I agree that our players aren't soft (save Jeff Green), but we, collectively, are soft as butter right now. We don't:
-Get to the FT line consistently
-Put bodies on people and rebound
-Generally make scrappy, hustle plays
-Play tough defense and impose our presence - I mean two terrible teams in Detroit and Orlando looked incredibly confident against our defense, as if they were shooting alone in a gym
I literally yell at my TV, using choice words for our players and the way we play. I think you can out figure what those words are.
I love the C's, but we are soft. SOFT. Softest team in the league, possibly.
