Boston just shoots too many jump shots. And Garnett keeps passing up hook shots and layups and passing the ball to lesser players like Perkins.

That just plays right into Cleveland's hand. This has been their pace all night. Imagine now if LeBron just explodes for 10 or 12 points...this game would be over. I just can't ever understand KG. Nobody on Cleveland can guard him yet he keeps shying away from scoring.

Why are the Cavs in the game EVEN after Lebron is playing poorly.

Simple and what Ive been saying FOREVER.

Great Fundamental Defense
Great Rebounding

You do those two things and it doenst matter HOW poorly you shoot or how badly the superstar plays.

thats how the Bulls won titles man. Jordan had bad shooting nights galore. But his team still won titles because they coudl ALWAYS rely on their defense and rebounding EVERY Game.

Espeically the 2nd 3 peat wiht harper, Jordan, Pippen and Rodman.

Defense and Rebounding is a constant and will alwasy win you championships.

Thats why I question whether LA can truly win it all.

Im not confident in those two aspects of their game, and when that is the case, you can NEVER count on a team and be confident they will win.

This series SO REMINDS Me of the Det Cav series a year ago.

I remember telling ANYONE who would listen.

Boston is getting ZERO penetration and taking all jumpshots....JUST like Detroit last year.

Damn, Boston (win or loose) need to loose this shooting mentality they have. It won't work in the playoffs, trust me I'm a Raps fan I know.

If shots not going in, take it to the whole. Like Pierce just did.

Just don't see how a team with KG, Pierce and Allen can go into this type of drought.

**** Pierce realizes what he's supposed to do on an off-shooting night.
