He was quite obviously hurt tonight though. Ugly actually. He wouldn't take jumpers, and he wouldn't drive the lane. He still had 24/7/4 with 3 steals and 2 blocks, but he wasn't himself.But why not play Z? It makes no sense? They had jamison guarding Garnett. He didnt' have a chance.
Bullshit, you can't use that "hurt" excuse. He was just fine in game 1. The Celtics played great defense on him today. He COULDN'T drive, and he had to resort to jumpers. You didn't see MJ claiming he was "hurt" everytime he had an off night (RARELY).
