As fans of the greatest team in the NBA, Rudy must stand up and take some heat for this. 1. Teams have caught on to our one-on-one offense and have decided to zone up on the strong side of the ball, For example, we pass to Cuttino on the wing and watch him dribble the life out of the rock as teams rotate the big man away from no score Cato to Cuttino 2. Our pick and role D is autrocious, we continually let teams in the paint for easy scores and assists. Force it baseline and rotate like the Lakers or every other team in the L 3. Our rebounding sucks, we need more effort from Fato and KT, and should go with a big lineup. Let Walt bring the rock up, Cat at the 2, Torres at the 3, and Eddie at the 4 with Cato or Willis. 4. Kenny Thomas could hit a jumper in the gym alone and if I see that spin move again, I'm going to throw up. Greg Anthony ripped him clean. Start using Eddie now, play Kenny off the bench
I didnt want to bash Rudy this year, but he does deserve blame for some of this. It is his job to fire up the team and has not done so twice in the last three games. I also think he should have figured out how to guard a damn pick and roll by playing against the Jazz so much. However, I dont know how anyone can dogg KT. He is our best player rite now. Playing him off the bench rite now would not be a good idea. Let Griffin have more minutes, but at the expense of Cato and maybe Rice.
I agree. If he's as displeased as we are about the losing, Rudy needs to start acting a fool in the lockerroom, suit up himself, whatever to get these guys to get it in gear. So what that the offense is gone without Steve and Cat?....now would be a great time to develop the defense. It's showtime for Rudy...you know the saying, "(expletive) or get off of the pot". All eyes are on you now, Rudy.
I totally agree with you R0ckets03. KT is awsome so far, but i do badly want to see Griffin playing more. I want him to have a big share of the minutes. only thing that is left is to have the young guys develop. BUt take from non-husseling players, such as CATO, or RICE. WHat has happened?
