Re: Celtics @ Cavaliers
Z and Gooden haven't seen the floor the entire run.....18 minutes. Gooden just takes himself out of games ...he looses all confidence early on and simply can't suck it up and get his mind right. I feel bad that he's that weak mentally...because he's such a gifted player. Z on the other hand is just physically overmatched most nights, and doesn't fit with what we're trying to do offensively. I think his days should be numbered in Cleveland ...he doesn't fit with the team and how we are looking to build it.
I was always a big Z supporter, but, I have to call it like I see it ...he seems to have hit the wall. He was borderline since his last round of surguries on his feet ...he just had enough mobility to remain competitive, but, that slight thread he was hanging by, appears to have snapped, and he just doesn't have the ability to overcome his issues.
Not any reason to hate on the guy, he simply has lost what he once had ...that's bad news for us as a team ...and too bad for him, because he is a fighter ..he does work harder than anybody on this team. It just isn't there anymore.
