Usually there is 2 good quarters a game... trying to guess which they will be is the hard part lol

Thank god I didn't watch the game by the looks that you guys "whimpered" over the lost lead, lol.

Dang, lol. What's up with KG? I know Boston is on an easy roll right now, but he hasn't chugged down a lot of rebounds as I anticipated lately.

he doesnt need to, honestly hes on a Duncan style cruise through the regular season at the moment... best part about it is they are still winning, he does make a huge difference when hes on the court, but theres enough help for him to get some rest and not use up all his energy in games against lesser teams.

i for one am happy to see KG go for 15/7 nights and get the win, that would have never happened here

Well another disappointing game. Craig Smith has played like junk for the last 2 games after that career game he had. Telfair is absolutely abysmally bad scoring the ball. Richard is apparently allergic to rebounds, and McCants is worthless when his shot isn't falling. Our young guys need to step up. Jefferson is getting the job done though, thank god. If he develops a better passing game he's going to be great centerpiece.

Jefferson needs to work on his D more than anything

Good points in general, but specifically, I want to note the McCants one. The sad thing is, early this season and even late last season, he was doing other things. Last season he couldn't shoot worth a damn, but he was hustling on both ends and doing other things. This season, early, he was scoring AND doing those other things. But I think you're right that the rest of his game has suffered with his offensive struggles. And that's the worst thing for a player to fall into, because nobody's jumper is always on.

Mccants can play some pretty good D, and did so on Durant...

he has been a little off lately though

Good enough. I guess I am so used to seeing those 22/11 kind of numbers.

That's true, indeed.

Did he? Excellent. I only saw the first quarter or so, then had other things going on. Glad to hear he stepped up last night.

Hes not too far off, and im sure he will go through hot streaks, while at the moment hes definately just cruising through.

rediculously efficient too

Brewer was on him a lot more, but Mccants was playing some pretty impressive swarming D on him, getting in his face regardless of the height difference... needs to get much more consistant though

I think McCants would be alright if he knew his role on the team. He has the tools to become a good player, mainly good scorer, but he needs to get consistent minutes to become a more consistent player. Part of the problem is the coaching, but part of it is also that ne heeds to get his mindset focused on every game.

Personally I except him to continue to struggle for a while unless some of those things mentioned above will change.
