and does shane coach himself? Does he spread out the minutes? Blame Adelman if that's your reasoning. And i think Battier's excuse is legit one, hoewever, with the tmac drama everyone's feelings about "shutting it down" and "starting fresh" are already negative. If tmac had never been an issue everyone would just be saying they hope battier gets better in time for the playoffs and nothing else.
if you have watched games last couple of seasons you know where shane's offense is the corner 3s. how does he get that by running tmac on the high screen and roll with yao.....tmac then turns the corner which then shanes player helps out on tmac and he finds shane wide open in the corner but now they run that play and the guy guarding tmac is quick enough to stay with tracy thus shanes guy stays put which results in shane's lack of offense.
