If your opponent scored 137 points on you, you can talk about injury, foul trouble, or officiating all you want to, but in the end of the day, it's DEFENSE what is lacking.
Defense is mainly about effort. There is no sugar coating or silver lining to it. You can discuss coaching strategy, team ball, who's the real PG, and who should have the ball etc, but you got blown up embarrassingly, simply because defense wasn't there.
When JJ. Redick scored 19 points on you at the half, Harden, you sucked donkey balls on defense. There was no effort.
When Chris Paul (it doesn't matter that he's the best PG in league now), dished out 17 times and made it so easy, Lin didn't do a great job to limit him, defensively. There is NO "pretty good", "8 assists is nice", or "pad on the back", or "I feel your frustration because officials weren't fair", rosey glasses needed. He simply needs to do better to fight through picks and stay with his man. He should attack CP3 more to make him to play defense.
This is a results-oriented league. 137 points! And yet, people are busy looking for positives. I see none. If you really try hard, maybe Cassipi and Garcia brought some positives. But this isn't time to feel good, rather everyone should look into the mirror and feel terrible and embarrassing. They should wake up and stop feeling complacent. Half-a$$ed plays and hoping to turn it on when it mattes doesn't fly against above average teams. This is NBA.
The only positive is that even you got poured on for 137 points, it only counted as one loss.
