down by 1 and with less than 24 seconds left in the game last night, brandon bass ended up with the ball and proceeded to mindlessly back down his man as if there was 10 minutes left in the second quarter, never once considering that he might want to pass to a teammate. the celtics had to call a timeout with 4 seconds left so they could set up a play for someone who actually comprehends game situations.
so yeah, if just from an aesthetic standpoint, pls trade bass.

wonder if that celtics-rockets deal was floated in the press as a way to get someone else to think, "we can beat that!"

“Only thing we’re shooting in practice are layups and 3s,” starting point guard Patrick Beverley explains. “We don’t like midrange,” Garcia and Beverley say in unison.
The two of them have a firm grasp on Houston’s mission, but I want to know just how extreme their team’s approach is. “Did you know that LaMarcus Aldridge has shot ...” Beverley interrupts my question with the exact number of midrange shots Aldridge has hoisted relative to the entire Rockets team. As of Friday, the Portland power forward has attempted 98 more midrange shots than everyone on the Houston roster combined. That’s a startling statistic, but it’s not especially novel to Beverley, who “keeps up with everything,” as he puts it.

LA has been the King of Midrange this season, but the overlooked point is that he makes them. The unanswered question for me is, have defenses begun to concede opponents the midrange, even funneling as many attempts they can into that area, to where it is becoming the point of greatest opportunity? If so, LA may be the guy who breaks that defensive scheme and starts the pendulum swinging back to defenses having to defend it more aggressively.
