I LOVE that Cleveland is getting stomped by Golden State.

Boy, when shots aren't falling we just aren't a very good team, and it doesn't help that they're making all of their shots. Same story over and over.

And this is magnified when you have few guys who can get fouled and get FTs...and you as a team give up a ton of FTs in return.

who is a good team when their shots dont ball? if the celtics can hang in there for now they can come back.
I'd say a team that doesn't need to rely on jumpers for their offense.  go in the post as well as drive to the basket.

case in point, Smart scores in the post

Sometimes you can just tell from the tip when the Cs are going to lay a dud. Jacking up deep contested threes 8 seconds into the shot clock, not looking inside at all, allowing offensive rebounds every other possession... can't put a finger on it but I'm curious it any of you guys ever notice this. Just some kind of vibe.

This is why IT, as good as he is offensively, doesn't need to start. He's just going to be abused when they focus on attacking him. This will happen every game in the playoffs.

Boy, Smart has turned a corner finally!

Just tuned in: yikes.


Can't trust this team to make shots at all.

Smart is making good shots around the rim. Looking for his offense in the paint. This is what we've been waiting for and he's doing it every game

In addition to not hitting shots, IT's getting abused defensively. They're running every play through his guy.
