This season is frustrating. Not only do the Bruins lack talent, but effort as well. Dragovic refuses to play defense and is more often a poor shooter than a good one. Against the Bruins zone, opposing teams routinely run plays to Dragovic's side with much success. Jerime Anderson didn't put the effort in the offseason to improve and it shows. Malcom Lee, while talented and works hard, doesn't have a natural floor sense. (Though, neither does Westbrook and Collison) These last few games, he's taken himself out of games by refusing to drive to the hole, making it a 4-on-5 game. Re: J'Mison Morgan, I sometimes wonder if the scouts actually watch the players they rank highly. Watch 5 minutes of J'Mison and you will see that he has very limited upside due to his coordination. Love his smile, but I wouldn't be surprised if he transferred. There is hope for next year if the talented Tyler Honeycutt can be the nucleus of a new attitude and Josh Smith can produce 75% of Kevin Love's numbers. Good post. This season is frustrating.
