Another game where they checked-out after taking a 15 point lead. how pathetic is this getting.
this was almost a good game for detroit. but now there's no momentum going in to Game 3. Again.  |
To be fair Griff, they did get jobbed by the refs in the 4th Q several times.
It seems there are two standards for physicality, and the Heat can play like the 90s Knicks, and the Pistons are expected to take it.
Yes they surrendered the lead, but when you don't get foul calls, and when you get called for iffy crap, that saps momentum too.
CB is simply overmatched when asked to break plays and create. When he gets a different look from defenders, he gets flustered and is forced to decide, pass or shoot, overthink what is happening and it usually turns out ugly.
Gotta give him a little credit for finally playing some defense late though.
