I agree, if other teams go small... we can play AA at the 3, or at the 2 and let rip move over to the 3 depending on the matchup. The options in the playoffs are numerous. No body should be out there if there not playing up to par. |
Just because the annoucer said he should not take the shot does not mean he was not suppose to take it. Afflalo needs in game practice shooting the ball, and most likely was told to quit deferring so much. The shot was clean enough, he just missed it. Afflalo needs practice shaking people too. Its all part of learning the NBA game. Hubie Brown knows basketball, but he does not know what is going on with the dynamics of this team as far as who needs to learn what. Afflalo not only should have taken the shot, he should be put in the same situation more and asked to create his shot, repeatedly.
