Match up stregnths? Match up weaknesses?
I think this game will go a long ways in telling us(the fans) were this team is. They will have to play a lot better than they did against Jersey.

This game stinks so far. Dooling looks hesitant. The 2unit has no go to guy. That's a good reason to have JON come off the bench and run some low post plays for him. Or at least do it for The Steamer!! -

KG and Bass both play so far from the basket, we never have any big man under the basket on the offensive board after a shot. -

To think that Boston had one of the biggest front courts in NBA history last year, before Danny Ainge panicked (when the C's were dominating the league) and blew the team up. They could really use some punch down low, they just don't have anybody. -

Dominating the league? What, the WNBA? Boston was a poor rebounding team last year and worse this year. If the Pacers had shot half decent they would be up 20+.
Blow this team up!! -

You have to think of the C's prior to Ainge going crazy on trades. That team that was in place was dominating the league. I am sure it has happened but I personally don't recall a team with the number 1 record in the league, trade for I believe 6/7 new players. That was insane. It completely destroyed team chemistry and left Boston to rely on a 50 year old Shaquille O'neal and washed up JON.

Posted by guyfromtexExactly right. Top 2 record in the league (or was it the best record) through the first half and then fell apart with injuries and Danny's trade. Shows that if you are not athletic (wow - we aren't!!!), then you better be big. We have no big man game underneath.
