he knows defense can keep them in the game. it's up to the spurs to make their shots. but they haven't faced manu in the third yet.
I think teams are hitting a solid % against the Spurs because the Spurs allow a lot of points in the paint without a secondary shotblocker for the Spurs

Uh no, but the defense isn't as bad as you think.
I've seen alot of games where teams are making some tough shots. Can't do anything about it.
Take a valium.
Yeah 2007 was a great examp..... Oops.
Well, lets hope this coming second stretch of the season they make the necessary adjustments.
Exactly, this is a game where I fully expected the defense to step up. They are playing a nice game all around (energy, offense, decision making, adjustments) but I keep wondering when they are going to pick up the defense.
The number 4 ranking is not accurate. That is not adjusted for pace. Like Pop says, look at opponents FG% and look at defensive efficiency. We drop big time.
no, the number 4 ranking is adjusted for pace, that's where I got it..we rank 4th in defense per 100 possessions..we're behind Boston, Cleveland, and Orlando..
I agree about the opposing FG% though, that needs to go down..
I don't think there is a team better than us defensively outside of those 3 teams though..LA isn't better defensively, Houston has fallen off, so has Detroit..
I think the D will kick up in the 2nd half of the Season and in the Playoffs because Bowen will see his minutes go up.
That's the kind of thing you say against scrub teams. Are the Spurs a scrub team?
Is he supposed to kiss their ass?
That D-Bag Barry Brother, "Celtics are losing b/c of the hard hit from the Lakers loss, just like last year"
Stuart Scrub: Coming up, circle jerk from the MSG!
Here's hoping we pick up our D in the second half.
So the Universe revolves around the Lakers?Dont worry guys. Whenever the Lakers beat the Celtics, the C's usually go on a 6 or 7 game losing streak. You can thank us later...
You have to be the gayest poster on this site. You know very little about basketball and are like a whiny girl. It is called a discussion, I am not upset, so why do you always have your little remarks. "Drink Drano, take a valium..." Grow up and maybe more people would enjoy your company.
Mason started well on D but in the last month or so he's always late on rotations
manu will go el pollo loco in the third.
Lakers fans are a joke. Win a championship or STFU already.Dont worry guys. Whenever the Lakers beat the Celtics, the C's usually go on a 6 or 7 game losing streak. You can thank us later...
if the Celtics are losing because of "the Lakers hit", that's pretty pathetic for a championship team..it makes no sense..I realize it happened earlier in the season, but it would be sad if it's attributed to that..
Mason was definitely good earlier in the season..he's been poor with Tony and Manu in the lineup..
he definitely has more ability than he's shown lately..the problem is defensive chemistry..he still has bad tendencies from his days as a Wizard, who were always a poor defensive team..
everybody needs to remember that we're 10-1 when Bowen plays 25 or more minutes..he leads the team in defensive +/-..he's a big difference maker..
Too bad they beat the Knicks the night afterDont worry guys. Whenever the Lakers beat the Celtics, the C's usually go on a 6 or 7 game losing streak. You can thank us later...
Pretty good first half. The defense for the Spurs has to pick up though because their offense isn't going to sustain. Bonner will likely dry up and with the Celtics trapping Parker, the Spurs will have to make offense later in the shot clock than they like.
Good start so far though . . .
It think it had more to do with chasing the 72-10 then the lakers.
Bonner driving the lane like 3-4 times already. Who the he thinks he is? lol
unfreaking real. Gotta love it.
It's going to be a tough night for Tony, but it's fine!
The Celtics want to dble team him? Fine!!
Tim and Manu are gonna eat them up!!
As a reminder, New York is the center of the universe.
And Kobe.
