Josh Smith, please do the following: play hard defense, rebound like an animal like you did in your first game, take soft short shots, dunk, and pass to guys that are moving to the basket IF they're there. These are some of your strong points. Please, do NOT do the following: bring the ball up the court when there is a guard nearby, bring the ball up the court if Harden is on the court, try to lead the offense, shoot long shots, make passes that are easily picked off. Play to YOUR strengths, not other people's strengths. Thank you.
The only way we're getting to get better, sadly, is a PG who is smart and understands what his role is since McHale won't do anything to get Beverley to play smart...
Sit Ariza and Dwight for the rest of the half. How can he screw up the minute allocation this badly, it isn't very hard.
