Like how Wafer disappeared in the 2nd half? Great idea, Rick.
He didn't say it was. He meant 11/53 is 21%.
The answer is defense. The problem is that Adelman can't make them play defense.
He needs to stop the bricklaying and go back to what he's been doing all season, which is drive to the basket.
Same here. Good offense is always pretty (see Phoenix), but you can't win a championship without defense (also see Phoenix).
As much as everyone hates JVG, there's no denying that we were consistently one of the best defensive teams in the league with him. When we...
Hey, they're slumping, too. There's always hope.

That's my boy! :D
That brings me back to my original point. Artest has played under Adelman's system before and liked it, so it doesn't seem logical that he would...

If Artest hadn't taken on the scoring load against Utah, we would've lost that game, too. Maybe if the offense would work like it's supposed to,...
If Rafer was calling out people, he definitely wasn't calling out Artest. Artest has been playing through his injury like the beast he is.
I've been asking myself the same question.
Classic "I'll call a timeout when we're down by 17" Adelman.
My thoughts exactly. Instead of rewarding the bench for getting them back in the game, he brings out his overpaid starters and gives Yao the last...
