He needs to turn it up on the defensive end in those situations. Also gives him opportunities in transition.
I think thats dangerous too breh. To me that gets him more focused on another thing except scoring. Obviously he needs to defend, but I don't want that to be his mindset.

Again he tried that in the finals against the Mavs. Just pick his spots, play heavy mins while guarding the one of the best scorers on the other team, etc.

He wins big when he has a scorer's mentality...who just so happens to play make. When he doesn't he and his team are extremely vulnerable.

@Gil Scott-Heroin was real quiet when the Cs were getting punked at home :mjpls:
That's why you let things play out instead of jumping the gun. :mjgrin:
Speaking of which...could the Wizards have won without Wall. :jbhmm:

:mjpls:
That's half the reason why I said the better team made it through, because the Celtics are more balanced than the Wizards - especially on defense. :mjgrin:

You think the Wizards are holding Bron Bron to 11 points on 4/13 shooting:mjgrin:

The Celtics aren't worse off without IT on the floor. Plus Smart is a starter.

They have way better depth due to Ainge's roster management.

Wall has only had a decent backup once in his career and that was Sessions. Andre Miller's final days were also fun to watch.

But the Wiz don't have a PG off the bench. Maybe Satoransky becomes one.

That and LeBron needs to realize fukk the other guys having big games. He needs to have a big game as well or be better.

Just like against the Mavs when he was watching Wade cook :ehh:....thinking I'll get mine eventually :yeshrug:

Then look up and oh shyt I can't turn it on :picard:

Don't fall in love with dishing out a bunch of passes to shooters shooting 3s....Especially against Golden State. :dame:
Which is why I hate when folks downplay LBJ's help. During that Miami 2011 finals Wade was getting his own. Sometimes LBJ ball watches when another teammate is balling out. LBJ has an adequate set of roleplayers on this Cleveland squad. He had too many forced passes that lead into to's.

I think at times, going to the "LBJ was just trying to get his teammates going " logic is a copout. His teammate played perfectly fine, on their own will and volition, LBJ was just too passive and had dumb turnovers. LBJ still has potential to pass mj imho. If they blowout Boston in game 4 and 5, all this all be forgotten.

But it's a bad look for lbj.

Wall > IT :mjgrin:

LeBron was due for a bad game. Morris/Porter would have held him to 15 :mjgrin:

Wizards win by 8 :mjgrin:



Wizards with game 4 at home would have been :whew:

I love IT but he is a liabilty on defense against this team. Not saying theyre better, because theyre not, but his size is just mismatches galor..

Props to the celtics for taking the challenge and competing especially on the road. I expected them to try but not to win. Hats off.....
