Guess there was nothing good said? Nothing about off season moves or rotations or anything? Nothing?
Listened to it after todays game on way to work
Not much was said other than
*Biggest thing going into Game 5 is how Ben's going to feel, fortunate its not a tear, hamstring injury hurts your jump, acceleration, pushing off. Needs Ben healthy for us to have a chance. Held out of shoot around to avoid any risk of further injury. Admire Ben because of he is a tough tough young man, has played through all bumps and bruises and wants to pay.
*Hosts bring up Tyrus's wild moves and moments u see him u say NO!!! Pax says he says that about every player! But he says Tyrus has made big strides, still learning process, 3rd year 22 years old trying to become a very good player, had confidence to try and take the free throws in game 4. Has played very well at time during the series and has helped us
*Noah had 2 set backs the ankle injury at summer camp, and the eye rake injury in training camp, slowed down Noahs conditioning. Once we made commitment to play consistent minutes he has played with alot of energy and got in shape. Talks to alot of teams around the league, alot of teams want him because of his enthusiasm for the game & winning & he fits in attitude wise with every team. All he cares about his winning
*When asked if he wants Rose to be more assertive, said yes but we have to remember he is a 20 year old rookie and what he has done now is remarkable. Point guard position so hard to learn. Tony Parker didn't start well eventually became a great PG has done well already. Is very disciplined wants to get others involved. Still learning. Knows he will get better & not a finished product. Once he gets the nba concepts will be a great player for a very long time
*Most important key to winning series will be stopping Rondo. He puts alot of pressure on us. Have to find a way to wall him, Boston do that to Rose, big men sprint back know where he is to wall him. Also not letting Ray Allen have such a big game and also getting a healthy Ben Gordon
