I don't know why you guys are complaining about Elmer Fudd's cousin like you've never seen him 'ref' before. This clip says it all for me, even more so than ejecting Duncan for laughing, because this is just...there are no words -
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tLwMl0dfEXoStill, we didn't lose because of the official(s)
tonight, even though OKC committed 7 fewer fouls and attempted 9 more free throws. We lost (I say that like I'm on the team lol) because of our inability to handle a zone - plain and simple. Rondo was awesome, as usual, but I didn't see any kind of adjustments made against the zone until the game was already out of reach. At least Young got to play and hit his only shot
. Yes, he had lapses on defense, but how many minutes has he played this year - 10, lol? Don't poo-poo on Morrow, either. That guy is a great shooter and has had a number of big games in his career. He could really be dynamite off their bench if he gets the time consistently. All I want to know is when did Nick Collison transform into Matt Bonner? Seriously, Collison has drastically altered his form to be a somewhat higher release point than that of the Red Rocket. He's not the shooter that Bonner is, but still. Sigh. It's disappointing, but not unexpected (to me, anyway). There was also a 3 day gap between games, which is kind of odd this time of year, but whatever. On to the next one.
Jeff Green is coming back to Earth, btw. Shhhhhh! Don't tell anyone (sarcasm)!
The only positive from this game was our 28/8 assist to turnover ratio, or 7/2, or 3.5, for those of you who automatically reduce and simplify fractions in your head (me, for some reason, haha, cough, cough)
