No Post Offense

A great second quarter, but it is becoming painfully obvious that the Trail Blazers have NO inside game. They didn't post up a single time the entire second quarter. LA made one phantom attempt but that's it. This is something to watch down the road. Granted, the team runs a motion offense but it can't count on outside shooting to carry them all the time...when the shots go cold, leads evaporate or deficits mount as teams go on huge runs fueled by long rebounds and fast breaks...see first quarter. LA and Travis are able and should be forced by Coach Mac to post. B-Roy can and should do more of it as well. I'm tempted to boycott my blog posts until somebody on the team acutally posts...but that could be a long time coming.

Good to know that Nate Boy is in the house...straight from the LC campus. He got a tic outside the Garden for $41, a bit of splurge but the kid is working hard.

Can someone answer my long-standing question about the Garden: How come there isn't a single rose in the place?
