    I have been wondering why he did that too. He had a team that was very competent at running it. Had he adapted it, I think it would've been better for both sides. That is really a great offense. I was reading up on it in depth the other day and it's no wonder why it works so well.

    i get if he went to MN and had a young team that couldn't run it, but to go to a tean laden with vets that had more or less masterd it....foolish move.

    you can't coach what you don't know ...

    i also don't think the triangle offense works when you have a scoring big that posts up ...

    let bryant run the offense then. they had all been it for years...well, most of them have.

    but one of the keys is tossing the ball into the post

    we won 2 titles with bynum, gasol and lamar...but you're right that brown probably couldn't learn it quick enough to start the season

    also, if the lakers picked b shaw to be coach, we probably wouldn't be in this position

    A great rivalry and one of the most alltime I think with 20 playoff series. A must win for the Celtics to get this series over with for some rest. Let's go RONDO you are the leader of this now rock the house.

    Funny how Wade's knee/leg issues surface after he has a couple of shitty games. More unlikable by the day...

    i like how they dim the lights there. wish the sixers did that.

    i'm assuming they have some sort of agreement with the clippers that they have to have more lights on or something to make it seem like a different atmosphere than a lakers game?

    when games were at the forum, the crowd was always darkened...when they moved to this dump, they lit the crowd...i guess they' went back to low light at some point...honestly, until tonight i hadn't really noticed

    and the clippers light their crowd to prove they actually have fans :lol:

    yeah i figured they do it at staples to make it look like the old forum a bit. kinda makes it appear the game is on a bigger stage when the crowd is dimmed.

    the spectrum was dimmed like that too. i hate how the wells fargo is all lit up all the time.


    for some reason i pay close attention to stupid stuff like this. i even emailed the sixers and told them to dim the lights a while back. just looks cooler :lol:

    I thought it looked like Russell hit the back of his leg forcing it to buckle... :?

    Great game overall. That was down to the final shot.
