LeBron and AD dropped the ball on that one. I can't comprehend what they were thinking after they crushed Houston by leaving Russ open all series.
With Russ at pg we have no choice but to play him at C until AD is back. Russ cannot be on the floor with a non-stretch big.
How can you have a "star" guard with attempts like this routinely? [MEDIA]
If Monk, Bradley, Melo etc. are off, Vogel needs to give him a look sooner.
Apparently, he's averaging 15.9/8.3/9.3/4.9 tov on 38/23/62 shooting vs top 4 teams in both conference (12 games total) Once the transition game...
I'd trade him for anyone. Just need him off the team
Him, Bron and AD can be a trio of elite scoring efficiency. Russ needs to focus on just setting those guys up.
Lebron was mad that Handy distracted Bradley from receiving the inbounds pass. The audio is below [MEDIA]
It sucks that we can't get him a rest in the 4th. Those entire 12 minute shifts kill his legs.
If Lebron and AD play like they are capable, we might be able to salvage the season.
He fits amazing with our starting lineup. He's our second best scorer.
It's useless. The eye test shows what he can do. He was part of stupid lineup combos where Melo was targeted over and over. +/- a lot of the time...
There's certain lineups that just SINK us and the coaching staff needs to step up and pull certain players if they don't have it. Melo should have...
He needs to take all of THT's minutes.
Yeah teams can just stick a big on him and he can't get by them in the halfcourt. Some of it is fatigue but most is just age.
If he's not barreling to the hoop for a layup, he has absolutely nothing in his repertoire.
Yeah, for sure. I have no complaints on his play. Just his influence on personnel. Still an amazing player, especially if he's fresh.
Great sharpshooting but damn.. he always looks exhausted down the stretch and has to launch threes. I wanted more of the pick and roll with him...
Good overall game but he's gotta hit Russ here. It was stupid to pass it back out. [IMG]
How many open lay-ups does he miss?
