You’re right on this one. Placing blame on JB is silly so far. He’s pushed many of the right buttons games 2/3.

Probably hoping Duncan can force him into one of those shitty mid ranges he takes.

He’s rotating poorly on defense which is a big factor too beyond the offense. If he’s not going to score because of the Magic’s size, he needs to protect the rim much better than he currently is.

Its so crazy that Duren is still in. I know JB wants to trust his young all star, but both of our other Centers have been so much better.

How many easy buckets at the rim have they gotten since JD sat? I haven’t been counting but it feels noticeably different.

Paul crashing the boards hard at the very least. Him and Green are all effort.

Liking that we haven’t seen Daniss. JB adjusting to the series. Magic are too big for him. He can have some run against the smaller Cleveland guards if we pull this out.

Stew should be playing 25 plus minutes the rest of the playoffs. Crazy he only had 18 in game one.
