I felt like the zone was used situationally last night…

We were beginning to drag. T.Bil was d’ing up on their big guy and he was out of game shape due to injury and missed practices…often leaving the game to have his cramping legs worked on. I think our starting guards were getting gassed due to extended minutes….( Perry being unavailable…and Eric was in foul trouble all night long). Seemed like a good game move to me to get a few possessions of rest (it was a weak zone IMO) on D.

I seems like Booker is a defensive liability at the 5 in that when he is in with T.Bil, Bil d’s up on the opposing 5 and he is marginal at best. I don’t have a ton of confidence that he will come around on the D end but he can help the team with his O. At this point, I feel like Jamerson is our only hope at the 5 on D … but he comes with a ton of problems as well. Right now, I kind of feel like I am an eight cylinder car that is running on 5 cylinders.

BUT a Road W is GREAT! Go Bruins.
