    Garnett receiving the pass close to the bucket while he's moving, Hayes can't do much against that. Shoulda known better to start the post up 1 foot in the paint against Chuck, cuz you'll end up with NO feet in the paint. Or flattened.

    Yes, to play Hayes for TMac's defense and Wafer for TMac's offense. Results:

    a) TMac can take a long rest until he's fully recovered mentally/physically. We need a healthy TMac for the playoff; and b) in recent games, the team seems playing tigher and more intense defense without TMac.

    The second time they got the rebound you could just see Garnett say "oh no. Not another one! Give it to somebody else!" lol

    Check Chuck's stance when he is defending the post. He's low and keeps his legs spread apart so as to maximize his low center of gravity and still be able to move laterally. He doesn't even extend his arms. This is post defense 101. Most guys still think post post defense is played with the upper body and they are wrong, wrong, wrong.
